iNES Release News

Hello, All!

I'm ending this holiday week with the iNES-Android 4.2.6 release:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.fms.ines

Similarly to VGB-Android 4.5.1, published earlier, this release fixes a bunch of rather unpleasant display and interface bugs, such as OpenGLES hangups and the title bar not hiding properly. I have also removed the unused FIREL virtual button and fixed FIRER button behavior. Finally, there is now an option to show box art instead of screenshots, when both are available.

ALL CHANGES:
* Added "Show Box Art First" option to the File Selector.
* Removed unused FIREL virtual button.
* Fixed FIRER button when running DiskSystem or VS System games.
* Fixed OpenGLES lockups on Mali GPUs (Samsung, RK, etc).
* Fixed running iNES in the lower half of split-screen.
* Fixed flickering border when simulating scanlines on x86 devices.
* Made screenshots and box art display bigger on large screens.
* Hiding the title bar is now the default behavior.
* Fixed premature hiding of the title bar.

Have fun!

Re: iNES Release News

Hello, All!

The new iNES-Android 4.3.7 is now online:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.fms.ines

This release has been tested and optimized for Nvidia Shield AndroidTV device. Pressing both thumbsticks at the same time should open the menu inside the emulator, even on AndroidTV. Furthermore, I reenabled action bar on devices with physical MENU buttons. Apparently, some Cyanogen builds falsely report the MENU button as "present", preventing the action bar from showing up.

ALL CHANGES:
* Tested and optimized for Nvidia Shield AndroidTV device.
* On AndroidTV, press both thumbsticks down to invoke the menu.
* Reenabled action bar on devices with physical MENU key.

Enjoy!

Re: iNES Release News

Hello, All!

Just made a minor update to iNES emulator on Android:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.fms.ines

iNES-Android 4.3.9 once again disables action bar on devices with physical MENU buttons, as most users appear to prefer the plain menu. This time though, you can get the action bar back by checking the "General | Enable Action Bar" option.

ALL CHANGES:
* Made action bar optional on devices with MENU button (off by default).
* Added "General | Enable Action Bar" option for devices with MENU button.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.fms.ines

You can now select to simulate RGB or CMY TV raster, via "Video | Color Mask Effect" option. This effect can be combined with scanlines simulation ("Video | Simulate Scanlines") and the softening algorithm ("Video | Soften Display"). I have also fixed a memory corruption bug in the Instant Replay function, as well as several other bugs.

ALL CHANGES:

* Merged "Scale Video" and "Stretch Video" into one selector.

Hello, All!

The iNES-Android 4.5 is out on the Google Play today:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.fms.ines

It adds support for four new cartridge types and fixes interrupt issues in three more. A few other things might have fixes themselves as well, since I made sure that mapper-specific I/O ports only return values when the corresponding mapper is selected. Expect Windows and Linux iNES 4.5 builds soon.

ALL CHANGES:
* Added mapper #90 (Aladdin, Final Fight, etc).
* Added mapper #118 (Alien Syndrome, etc).
* Added mapper #209 (Samurai Spirits 2, etc).
* Added mapper #211 (Donkey Kong Country 4, etc).
* Fixed interrupts in mappers #17, #18, #168.
* Fixed mapper-specific I/O port reads.
* Returned gradient to the action bar.

Enjoy!
