Sammaz PM'd me this update here on 1Emulation forums yesterday. I apologize I got to it a little late.

ver 20051002:

 

1. Added Jaleco Rock'n series (rockn1 / rockn2 / rockn3 / rockn4 / rocknms)

 

2. Fixed player number always 4 in the MAMEoX launcher

 

3. Change to 3 aspect ratio mode, added stretch display mode for the ppl who dont like the correct aspect ratio(ex. 384x224 for cps games) but the 4:3 full screen.

 

4. Added SoftDisplayFilter and FlickerFilter code in MAMEoX launcher (the flicker filter and soften settings in the option now affect the launcher too)

 

5. Changed scancount in CPS2 drivers (this fix the felicia icon flicker problem in Darkstalkers)

 

6. Updated ddenlovr.c (added mjreach1/mjchuuka/hkagerou/rongrngg/animaljr, and hanakanz playable now, for some reason mjchuuka works but only sound no graphic)

 

7. Added regenerate driver list option in the start menu (disable VSYNC before regenerate driver list, or the regenerating will be really slow)

 

8. Added xbox led color option

 

9. Added new option page(misc options, right now there is only one option on this page: led color)

 

10. Added 6 new IGS games supported in MAME0.97u7 (lhb / chindrag / chugokur / chmplst2 / xymg / grtwall)

 

11. Added Tetris the Absolute The Grand Master 2 and TGM2+

 

12. Cleaned code and some other changes

 

NOTE:

This is still a wip version, so there may be bugs.

 

Delete your MAMEoX save at msdash (or use the regenerate driver list option in the start menu) *AND* the cfg directory in MAMEoX folder(no need to do this if you already did this when updating to ver.20050726) before you install this version!

AGEMAME 0.101u4 is the Arcade Gambling extension for the Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator, MAME.

We're Back

 

Evidently it was just an SQL issue, nothing was lost during the crash, but I keep regular backups anyway.

 

While we were gone, 101u4 came out, but since there are no AGEMAME specific files to worry about, the patch is already available from Downloads.

Mameinfo.dat v0.101u4 and MAME32 0.101u4 Category-, Version and Alltime inifiles have also been released!

PSPGBA is a new Game Boy Advance emulator for the Sony PSP. Forgotten from NGEmu has found that the source code from PSPGBA uses code from Visual Boy Advance which violates the GPL. So what we of course did was look for it, and unfortunately we found it!

10.  If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.

EDIT: Apparently, this may be invalid until we get the author's response.

"Unsupported VisualBoyAdvance save game version %d"

This can be out of context so it uses the same format for save-games as VBA does.

Thanks to moomoo on #ngemu and AEP-Emu for notifying me about this.

ScummVM is a program which allows you to run certain classic graphical point-and-click adventure games, provided you already have their data files. The clever part about this: ScummVM just replaces the executables shipped with the game, allowing you to play them on systems for which they were never designed!

We are pleased to announce a long-awaited ScummVM 0.8.0 release. We, the ScummVM Team, have prepared a big pack of new features for you. Most outstanding amongst these are:

 

    * New improved launcher and in-game GUI

    * Support for Inherit the Earth and Gobliiins

    * Playstation Portable, Playstation 2 and EPOC/SymbianOS ports

    * CGA and Hercules rendering modes for some games

    * Preliminary support for NES and C64 LucasArts games

    * Much improved support for Humongous Entertainment children games (Freddi Fish, Pajama Sam, Putt-Putt, Spy Fox, Fatty Bear, Backyard Sports and Buzzy)

 

You may find a more detailed list of changes as well as files to download at our downloads page. We encourage you to update to this latest and best ScummVM version as soon as possible.

 

Along with this release, we are also pleased to announce the launch of our new forums. Located at the easy to remember address of http://forums.scummvm.org/, the new forums feature individual sub-forums for Ports, and many new functions for both the users and moderators alike.

 

Please note that the SourceForge.net forums will be closed and archived within the next 48 hours. These archives will be available from the bottom of the forums' Main Index page.
