mars2000you Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 2010 was a very difficult year for the blueMSX team, this for personal reasons. We have however made some additions and improvements, but all is not ready for an official release. As these additions and improvements can interest some people, we have decided to release a beta version for Christmas ! Remember : it’s a beta version, only the core of the emulator is updated and some bugs could appear. What’s new ? - added support for smooth rewind of emulation (check hotkey in shortcut editor) - added support for ColecoVision Super Action Controller - added support for ColecoVision Super Expansion Module hardware - added support for ColecoVision Expansion Module #2 using mouse - added support for Parallax ARC cartridge - added support for stereo PSG in MSX machine configuration - fixed critical bug that caused trainer and cheats to fail as well as memory writes in the debugger when any of the following languages were selected : Catalan – Chinese Simplified - Chinese Traditional – Dutch – Finnish - Russian - fixed bug in handling of transparent sprites - fixed ARTRAGs VDP command engine bug - fixed ‘no frequency’ bug in SN76489 emulation - fixed minor bug in Beer IDE emulation You can find this beta here : http://www.bluemsx.com/rel_download/blueMSX_2.8.3_beta.zip 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Murph74 Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 NP Niad, just know I wasn't trying to sound rude/crass/etc. lol Great work from the BlueMSX team! Still amazes me they find ways to improve something when I didn't even know/notice it was 'broke'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
