    melonDS 0.9.4 is out!

    Well... looks like DeSmuME just went and embedded the decryption keys in the emulator.

    melonDS 0.9.4 is out!

    melonDS does this, but with the DraStic 'FreeBIOS', which is basically a drop-in BIOS replacement. DeSmuME's default BIOS is minimalistic, it's just the IRQ handler, and BIOS SWI functions are handled in HLE. I doubt DeSmuME can handle encrypted ROMs without original BIOS files, unless they...

    melonDS 0.9.4 is out!

    You still need original BIOS files for encrypted ROMs. VC dumps are encrypted. I could make melonDS detect these situations, I guess.

    melonDS 0.9.4 is out!

    that means making the melonDS codebase endian-safe, so that it could run on big-endian platforms (currently most if not all the code assumes a little-endian platform). in practice, this is a low-priority item. melonDS might run on the WiiU at acceptable speeds with a specific JIT and other...

    blargSNES 1.4 released

    you can always try using frameskip; I will try making this game run better in the hardware renderer but no guarantees

    blargSNES 1.4 released

    I will mostly just need help with testing builds whenever I get around to trying to fix this.

    melonDS 0.9.4 is out!

    I know this has been a long wait, but finally, here it is: melonDS 0.9.4 is out. It has been numbered this way because 1.0 is going to be a milestone release: we want to get local multiplayer stable for 1.0. Anyway, what's new in melonDS 0.9.4? A bunch of improvements that should make things...

    blargSNES 1.4 released

    The info on the blargSNES website is largely outdated, so don't trust it. blargSNES does take into account the faster speed of New3DS/etc models. But I don't think there's any adjustment in the audio section of the code, so maybe that part is running faster than expected and that causes issues...

    blargSNES 1.4 released

    o, thanks! As for the compatibility list, I found there's one but it covers the older 1.3 versions: https://wiki.gbatemp.net/wiki/BlargSnes_Compatibility_List EDIT- I looked quickly at the Top Gear issue. It seems fixable but I'll have to give it a try tomorrow. It modifies the OAM midframe...

    blargSNES 1.4 released

    I can look into it, sure. What's the game supposed to do/look like, though? I don't know what it's meant to be like.

    blargSNES 1.4 released

    https://gbatemp.net/threads/cxitool-convert-3dsx-to-cia-directly.440385/ may be of interest to you. Other than that, I'll need to look into how to build a CIA. In the same vein: https://gbatemp.net/threads/release-3dsx-launcher-loader-cia-forwarder-for-3dsx-homebrews.432526/ - Regarding...

    blargSNES 1.4 released

    I felt like reviving blargSNES some, so let's see how far this goes. Anyway: For blargSNES 1.4, the codebase has been renovated. It builds against modern libctru, and runs on the latest homebrew launcher, all while retaining its old early-homebrew feel. Then I found myself having to...

    blargSNES revival??

    Lil' status update. After ADHDing for a while, I finally took the plunge and backported the last big item: DiscostewSM's new better mode7 renderer. Had some trouble getting it working, but it seems to be working smoothly now. There are still some tidbits I want to clean up and optimize before a...

    blargSNES revival??

    Thanks! Anyway, I'm nearly done backporting the veryhard changes. The last one is the big one, DiscostewSM's new hardware mode7. Seeing as I already made heavy changes to the hardware renderer, I'll have to study how it works so I can integrate it properly.

    blargSNES revival??

    Would you happen to have a link to that thread? These things are always so interesting to read. Like the ZXDS developer diary, which I recall reading back then -- it even inspired me to write one about blargSNES, although I never finished it. Anyway, I'm having fun with this, so I'm going to...
