Front End (Mac only)

Version 1.5 released. Layout options and second artwork support

 

EMUlaunch has been updated to v1.5 with the following changes:

 

* Layout customization options (more options in regards to font size and background bevels to come)

* Option for second artwork

* Option to remove dock

* Updated 512px icon for Leopard

* Improved mutli resolution support, especially for vertical resolutions such as 1200x 1920 and legacy resolutions such as 6410 x480

* Background image now scales properly in vertical monitor situations.

 

Future updates will bring more customization options, but what has been updated should give the ability for people to create more elaborate layouts such as the one featured below (this uses a custom background - instructions can be found in the read me as to how to swap backgrounds).

Genesis/Sega CD Emulator for PSP

Here is another bugfix release from me (with a few new features):

 

* mp3 code should no longer fail on 1.5 firmware.

* added gamma adjustment option.

* added .cso ISO format support. Useful for non-FMV games.

* it is now possile to force a region after the ROM is loaded.

* fixed a sram bug in memhandlers (fixes Shining in the Darkness saves).

* fixed another bug in memhanlers, which crashed the emu for some games (like NBA Jam and NHL 9x).

* added suspend/resume handling for Sega CD games.

* some other small tweaks I forgot about.

 

That's all for this update. The CSO feature should help to save space on the memstick (standard ISO to CSO converters should work), but it slows down FMV games. I've tested this version on original 1.5, and on 3.52M33, 3.71M33-3 custom firmwares, so it should hopefully work for everyone now.
