|
|
||
| The format is based on [Keep a Changelog](https://keepachangelog.com/en/1.0.0/), | ||
| and this project adheres to [Semantic Versioning](https://semver.org/spec/v2.0.0.html). | ||
|
|
||
| ## [Unreleased] | ||
| ### Added | ||
| - Native support for OpenAI Gym | ||
| - Native Python interface using pybind11 which results in a speedup for Python workloads as well as proper support for objects like `ALEState` | ||
| - Python ROM management, e.g., `ale-import-roms` | ||
| - PyPi Python wheels published as `ale-py` + we distribute SDL2 for out of the box visualization + audio support | ||
| - `isSupportedROM(path)` to check if a ROM file is supported by the ALE | ||
| - Added new games: Atlantis2, Backgammon, BasicMath, Blackjack, Casino, Crossbow, DarkChambers, Earthworld, Entombed, ET, FlagCapture, Hangman, HauntedHouse, HumanCannonball, Klax, MarioBros, MiniatureGolf, Othello, Pacman, Pitfall2, SpaceWar, Superman, Surround, TicTacToe3D, VideoCheckers, VideoChess, VideoCube, WordZapper (thanks @tkoppe) | ||
| - Added (additional) mode/difficulty settings for: Lost Luggage, Turmoil, Tron Dead Discs, Pong, Mr. Do, King Kong, Frogger, Adventure (thanks @tkoppe) | ||
|
|
||
| ### Changed | ||
| - Rewrote SDL support using SDL2 primitives | ||
| - SDL2 now renders every frame independent of frameskip | ||
| - SDL2 renders at the proper ROM framerate (added benefit of audio sync support) | ||
| - Rewrote entire CMake infrastructure which now supports vcpkg natively | ||
| - C++ minimum version is now C++17 | ||
| - Changed all relative imports to absolute imports | ||
| - Switched from Travis CI to Github Actions | ||
| - Allow for paddle controller's min/max setting to be configurable | ||
| - More robust version handling between C++ & Python distributions | ||
| - Updated Markdown documentation to replace TeX manual | ||
|
|
||
| ### Fixed | ||
| - Fixed bankswitching type for UA cartridges | ||
| - Fixed a SwapPort bug in Surround | ||
| - Fixed multiple bugs in handling invalid ROM files (thanks @tkoeppe) | ||
| - Fixed initialization of TIA static data to make it thread safe (thanks @tkoeppe) | ||
| - Fixed RNG initialization, this was one of the last barriers to making the ALE fully deterministic, we are now fully deterministic | ||
|
|
||
| ### Removed | ||
| - Removed FIFO interface | ||
| - Removed RL-GLUE support | ||
| - Removed ALE CLI interface | ||
| - Removed Java interface | ||
| - Removed os-dependent filesystem code in favour of C++17 `std::fs` | ||
| - Removed human control mode | ||
| - Removed old makefile build system in favour of CMake | ||
| - Removed bspf | ||
| - Removed unused controller types: Driving, Booster, Keyboard | ||
| - Removed AtariVox | ||
| - Removed Stella types (e.g., Array) in favour of STL types | ||
| - Remove Stella debugger | ||
| - Remove Stella CheatManager | ||
| - Lots of code cleanups conforming to best practices (thanks @tkoeppe) | ||
