This is a major update with many new features and some fixes, and one deprecation.

If you were on v0.28, you should be fine to update and not reset. When you upgrade, you must soft reset.

Phob 2 update guide: https://github.com/PhobGCC/PhobGCC-doc/blob/main/For_Users/Phob2_Programming_Guide.md

Deprecated:

  • We have removed C-stick offset, since its only purpose was for angled smashes in Melee and it was strictly worse than notch adjustment for that.

New features:

  • Analog stick cardinal snapping adjustment: if you decide you don't like the 1.0 cardinal snapping, you can reduce its effect or even prevent 1.0 cardinals even in UCF 0.84+. Command: RA(Z) + D-Pad up or down.
  • Analog stick scaling: by default the rim of the stick is calibrated to a radius of 100 units, but this can now be adjusted in a range from 82 to 125. Command: LA(Z) + D-Pad up or down.
  • New (alternate) left stick Smart Snapback filter: this has a smaller effect on rise time and can be useful if you were accidentally getting smashes when you wanted tilts or tap jumps instead of uptilts. Set the Smart Snapback value negative for this: more negative is stronger suppression.
  • Tournament button lockouts: you can delay or disable up on the D-Pad and delay the Start button to prevent misinputs from interfering with play. Command: Z+Start
  • PhobVision: PhobScope now has 1000 Hz data recording and graphing capabilities, similar to SmashScope but with expanded capabilities. Most importantly, you can view the stick position both before and after filtering is applied.
    • Stickmap Plots: you can record 100ms of stick motion in 2D and view it overlaid upon various stickmaps relevant to the game. Use this to train DBOOC, ledgedashing, c-stick ledge dropping, and more.
    • Value vs Time Plots: you can record and graph 200ms of 1 stick axis and view the chance a snapback will register, the chance of successfully dashing back on vanilla Melee, and the probability of each outcome of an attempted empty pivot (no turn, empty pivot, dash back). In addition, you can record and graph the trigger analog value as well as digital press state and view the probability of a digital powershield, an ADT powershield, and no powershield.
    • Button Timing Viewer: you can record and graph 200 ms of every button (except start and dpad) and digitized values (selectable thresholds) for all 6 analog axes in relation to the first press or analog rising edge. These are plotted in a bar graph, labeled with the release time (in frames) of the first-pressed button and the press time of every other button pressed. You can use this to train wavedash timing, jump cancel grabs, frame 1 aerials, and more.
    • Reaction Time Test: press any button or move any stick (adjustable analog thresholds) after the white square appears, and see your reaction time in milliseconds and frames.
  • PhobVision: you can now adjust the interlacing offset for more even interlacing field spacing on some CRTs (such as Sony PVMs).

Improvements and bugfixes:

  • Settings writes when holding a button combo are deferred until the buttons are released, which greatly improves changing settings on Phob 2.
  • Firefox notches now have a somewhat wider adjustment range. Diagonals are unchanged.
  • PhobVision's settings menu is slightly reorganized: stick calibration and filter settings (and the new geometry settings) are now located under a new top-level menu item, Stick Configuration.
  • PhobVision's stick debug info now shows the rounded values that would be sent over the wire.
  • PhobVision's input viewer now displays the current stick coordinates both in controller units and Melee units.
  • Fast settings changes in Phobvision now occur as rapid 1-unit steps instead of slow 10-unit steps.
  • Font adjusted (a changed to be less heavy, k changed from loop style to line style, and ~ flipped vertically)

Errata: migration from 0.28 was improperly implemented and so you must soft reset unless you have a Phob 2 and use v0.29.1.
