    BSNES v091 released

    By Robert,

    bsnes v091 released

    2012-08-09

     

    A few issues crept up in the last release, this should take care of them.

     

    First, it seems that the 32-bit runtime on 64-bit versions of Windows have 64-bit time functions; whereas true 32-bit Windows does not. This was causing a DLL error when attempting to load bsnes v090.

     

    Second, when there were more than 2,000 files in the same folder on Windows, it was lagging the file browser. With OV2's help, I've fixed that and it'll now load the list instantly.

     

    Lastly, I've included the missing video shaders this time.


    Neoraine 1.3.3 released

    Robert
    By Robert,

    http://rainemu.swishparty.co.uk/html/download/neoraine.html

     

    neoraine (1.3.3) unstable; urgency=low

     

    * Rasters improve again : this time we take the numbers found by the measurements from the mame team, quite different from what the dev docs tell... With some adjustements, a big boost for the cpu in the vbl to ensure a stable display and this kind of thing.

    * Now accept cue files where the the data file is not between quotes

    * Add -geometry command line option (same as raine)

    * Inputs updates (same as raine, see raine changelog for details)

    * Add the option to disable the rasters emulation in "neocd option", so that rasters don't prevent anymore a game to be playable like what happened in 1.3.2. Also useful for those who find rasters make some games too slow. The option is saved and will return when restarting the emu.

    * Some fixes for the savegames, they should be more reliable now.

    * Show iso files in the file selector when there are no cue files in the directory, which happens for neocd demos for example.


    Raine 0.51.13 released

    Robert
    By Robert,

    http://rainemu.swishparty.co.uk/html/download/latest.html

     

    raine (0.51.13)

     

    * 16bpp support for operation thunderbolt / spacegun

    * -geometry command line option

    * borderless option (enabled if passing -geometry)

    * Finally fixes the display if going from a small window to high resolution fullscreen

    * filter bad joysticks'axes when there are some

    * display joysticks names in the inputs dialogs

    * allow to clear some default inputs and save them (previously they were not saved if cleared).
