NotSo Fatso NSF Plugin Update: v.85

posted in Utility News by gavin on Jul 23rd, 2004

Disch posted on the Zophar Message Board that he has released the newest verion of his NSF Winamp plugin: NotSo Fatso. There is a fairly long list of changes in this newest version, so let's take a look: * Revised FDS tune loading procedures. FDS NSFs which don't *quite* follow the special FDS bankswapping rules now load properly (fixes: Exciting Basket, Almana no Kiseki, Akai Yousai, and several others). * Fixed another related loading bug which could potentially crash NotSo if triggered (although it never seemed to be triggered, thankfully) * Fixed up the FDS a bit... including correcting a bug which caused some homebrews to go insane. * Fixed a bug in CPU timing. Caused streamed PCM audio to sound lower pitched than it should. (fixes: Blades of Steel, Mitokoumon). * Improved the DMC pop reducer so that it won't interfere with streamed PCM audio, but will still prevent the usual pops. * Corrected FME-07 output (again) * Added proper PAL system emulation... as well as adding room in the display to tell whether an NSF is PAL or NTSC (or combo). * Expansion channels are now reset between tracks (fixes several NSFs which falsely claim to use extra chips) * Improved "Subclass Winamp" option to catch track changes via keyboard. It also catches the 'play' button on Winamp now. * Corrected a display issue with the %t format tag on NSFEs with internal playlists. * Various GUI improvements and feature additions. * Added an extra "prepass" filter and included options to control the strength of all applied filters (as well as the option to disable them). * Added options to make NotSo less strict (to help correct NSFs which have rip issues). * Fixed a display issue when there's an ampresand (&) in a text field. (fixes display on "Wizards & Warriors", etc). You can download this plugin at the NSF Players/Utilities page. Thanks to Disch's post at ZMD for the news.
