Re: iNES Release News
Hello, All!
I have just updated iNES, my Nintendo NES and Famicom emulator, to version 4.8. The free Windows and Linux binaries can be found here:
http://fms.komkon.org/iNES/
This release makes some final fixes to the new sound chip emulation. Both DPCM and sawtooth channels should now work properly. I have also added support for binary palette files (.PAL) used by other emulators and an option to force 4:3 "television" screen ratio. The Windows version comes with its own share of small fixes and additions. See below for all the changes.
ALL CHANGES:
* Fixed DPCM sound channel (Journey To Silius, Castlevania 2, etc).
* Fixed sawtooth sound channel linear counter.
* Added support for binary .PAL files used by other emulators.
* Added "Force 4:3 Screen" option to iNES-Windows.
* Fixed 44kHz sound hiccups when 50Hz sync selected in iNES-Windows.
* Disabled Direct3D antialiasing when magnifying by x3 or more.
* iNES-Windows will use the last loaded .PAL file automatically.
* iNES-Windows will not overwrite last .NES file name with .PAL or .STA names.
* Keys [1]-[8] will toggle individual sound channels in iNES-Windows.
* Key [0] will toggle all sound channels in iNES-Windows.
* Added -4x3 command line option to iNES-Unix.
Have fun!
