ZsnexBox 2.4

 

Nes6502 released a new version of ZsnexBox(info), a port of the Zsnes Super Nintendo emulator to Xbox with lots of new and fixed stuff!

 

What's new/fixed:

* ZsnexBox now comes with two excellent (Zelda and Metroid) skins to choose from by Neverwill. Be sure to try them both.

* Added an animation to the Metroid skin

* Skin switching supported. Up to 15 skins are supported. Add additional skins to the skins folder. In each folder put a copy of the ZsnexBox.ini that has the correct text/image placement in this folder. It must be named the same as the folder name. For example, the Metroid skin is in the D:\skins\Metroid folder and contains a Metroid.ini

* Added more text placement options. Virtually all the text can be adjusted.

* Changed the main menu, controller, and emulator options text to be centered.

* Added a Help/FAQ Menu option. This screen contains information about the use of ZsnexBox as well as an updated FAQ. Please look here "before" posting a question on the forums.

* Added option to adjust the clipping window for the Help text.

* Added a new Help background image for the Help screen

* Tweaked the timing and animation code. The animations now run much smoother.

* Fixed the HD corrupt graphics problem some users were getting. ZsnexBox should display correctly in 720p and 1080i for all Xbox versions (regardless of the dashboard used to launch it)

* Fixed Player 3 and 4 controls

* Added the ability to change the Rombrowser text clipping. The width can now be increased or decreased.

* Created a new menu called GUI Options and moved the Text and Image Options to this menu.

* Added a GUI transition between screens. The fade effect duration can be adjusted

* Added support for a zooming logo/graphic for the rombrowser.

* Fixed a bug where some text was too far to the right in HD modes.

* Fixed the invisible digit bug on the cheat menu in HD modes.

* Changed all GUI images to PNG format. JPG's are no longer supported anywhere. This alone frees up around 4MB of RAM and as a result, all of the previous HQ previews work again. The GUI looks even better as well.

* Changed the "Show ROM Info" option to be off by default.

* Fixed a bug where the Option screen would be dimmed if screen resizing was done outside of the emulation.

* Fixed a bug where the preview border values were not being saved correctly.

* Added a confirmation screen for exiting ZsnexBox.

* Added options to change the zooming logo animations on the main menu and rombrowser. The values that can be changed are minimum size, maximum size, and speed of animation.

* Decreased the amount of time before the rombrowser animation repeats.

* Added option to change the distance the rombrowser animated character moves (if it moves at all). The default value is 100. So a value of 50 would cause it to repeat in half the time.
