Massive Mac Emulator Update

posted in Emulator Release by esper on Sep 4th, 2003

Richard Bannister has released a new version of his emulator shell code, which in turn adds up to a lot of updates to his emulators. Updates are as follows:

Added support for non-power-of-two textures. The cards that need this the most (RAGE 128 and earlier) do not support this extension. However, everyone else should see a performance improvement.
Tweaked window resizing to match QuickTime. Aspect ratio is preserved by default; hold down shift key to go to strange sizes, or hold down option key to stick to regular multiples.
Adjusted window alignment code to limit to four-pixel boundaries instead of eight.
Increased number of items in Open Recent menu to ten, and added "Clear Menu" option.
Fixed issue where battery RAM and freeze states did not work correctly when Emulator Enhancer was installed.
Added support for overriding the generic keyboard handling (needed for computer emulators such as MO5 and Oric).

The following emulators are the ones affected by this update. Click on the emulator of your choice to go to the appropriate section to download them.

Atari 5200 - Jum52 v0.8.2
GameBoy - KiGB v1.5.0
GameBoy Advance - Boycott Advance v0.3.0
Genesis - Genesis Plus v1.2.2
Odyssey^2 - O2Em v1.0.3
Oric - Oric v1.7.0

Sega Master System/GameGear - SMS Plus v1.0.3
Thomson MO5 - MO5 v2.3

All of these emulators work with the Emulation Enhancer that Bannister has developed. In addition, Oric is a new emulator for the Oric 1 and Oric Atmos. It emulates everything almost perfectly, so you may want to check it out.
