More older news to catch up with..

0.6.1:

 

* PCE:  The HuC6280 disassembler now gives @ZP hints for BBR and BBS instructions.

* NES:  Increased the effectiveness of frame-skipping.

* Removed unnecessary sound buffer copying if the source format == device format in SexyAL, which is true most of the time.

* Fixed a bug that was causing a crash in the cheat interface when trying to list cheats, under Win32.

* Fixed a bug in the settings loading code that forced the user to resort to manual creation of ~/.mednafen/mednafen.cfg on some operating systems(*BSD, OS/X). It was being caused by 'errno' being modified between the attempt to open the settings file, and the test 'if(errno == ENOENT)'.

* Silent sound will now be outputted when in step mode in the debugger.  Windows users' ears rejoice!

* Added a strtod() replacement that recognizes both "." and "," as valid radix characters, regardless of the current locale, and modified settings.cpp to use it.

* Lynx:  Removed some unused code.

Chankast Wrapper 2.5 (Daemon/Alcohol Edition) released!..:.

 

Talk about something that's been on the backburner for WAAAY too long. This version is fully compatable with the latest version of Chankast. Also it supports virtual drive mounting via daemon tools or alcohol 120%. On top of that you can now make cfg files for each game to ave individual settings similar to how zinc does it. How things are done has changed slightly, so be sure to check the readme.txt before using and running setup before even attempting to launch with the wrapper.
