Hi all,
It's been awhile since I've released anything for the emulators but I had some free time so I'm taking the chance now. Here's a beta version of snes9x gx:
https://github.com/dborth/snes9xgx/files/2281405/Snes9xGX-4.3.8-Beta.zip
Update: Here's a beta for the sound issues:
https://github.com/dborth/snes9xgx/files/2285356/Snes9xGX-4.3.8-Beta2.zip
Update 2: Here's another beta for the sound issues. Is it better than Beta2? Let me know.
<<LINK REMOVED>>
Update 3: The build above was bad. Try this one:
https://github.com/dborth/snes9xgx/files/2288514/Snes9xGX-4.3.8-Beta4.zip
Update 4:
Even better sound:
The major change is an updated core to snes9x 1.56 which seems to fix some games. Here's the changelog so far:
* Updated core to 1.56 (with less accurate but faster Blargg audio core)
* Memory optimizations to free up more MEM1 for Snes9x
* Disable multi pixel format support for a speed boost
* Add MSU1 support (thanks qwertymodo!)
* Add BPS soft-patching support (thanks qwertymodo!)
* Allow loader to pass two arguments instead of three (libertyernie)
* Backport some MSU1 fixes from snes9x
* Fix a few potential crashes caused by the GUI
* Compiled with latest libOGC/devkitPPC
* Remove update check completely.
* Compatibility fixes for newer devkitppc.
* Compile fixes for Gamecube
* Compile fixes for Linux
Please test as much as you can (and as many games as you can) and report back anything that was working before and isn't anymore. This part is important. I know there may be things that are still broken and that also were broken in 4.3.7. Those may still get fixed some day. But I just want to know whether or not this beta is better than the currently released 4.3.7.

With most of the older (faster?) 4.3.7 core

- fixed joystick calculations...for me at least the classic controller was making me move left when the joystick was 100% to the right
- mute sound when in turbo mode. Fixes audio buffers going crazy. Still doesn't fix the problem reported by Emu64 above. If you jiggle the turbo stick a little the sound comes back. Not sure how to fix this...
- add soft and sharp video filtering options from VBAGX
- re-add explicit Wii U Pro controller mappings
