RockNES v3.11

posted in Emulator Release by mfc on Feb 2nd, 2004

Richard Bannister has updated his port for RockNES, a very nice NES emulator. This requires MacOS X 10.2 or higher. From the author:
    Unfortunately due to a slightly broken optimizer in CodeWarrior 9 (see my post on January 22nd) it is not as fast as v2.5.1 was, though it is several orders of magnitude faster than Nestopia, which should be a blessing for those of you on slower Macs.

    This version is as near as matters a rewrite; of course my shell code is still the same, but most of the RockNES specific code had to be revised due to fairly substantial core changes between v2.40 and v3.11 on the PC side.
We have recorded this in our NES Emulators for Mac page, but you must go to the author's website to download a copy.
