Mame 0.202 released!



MAME is a multi-purpose emulation framework.

MAME's purpose is to preserve decades of software history. As electronic technology continues to rush forward, MAME prevents this important "vintage" software from being lost and forgotten. This is achieved by documenting the hardware and how it functions. The source code to MAME serves as this documentation. The fact that the software is usable serves primarily to validate the accuracy of the documentation (how else can you prove that you have recreated the hardware faithfully?). Over time, MAME (originally stood for Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator) absorbed the sister-project MESS (Multi Emulator Super System), so MAME now documents a wide variety of (mostly vintage) computers, video game consoles and calculators, in addition to the arcade video games that were its initial focus.

mGBA 0.7 beta 1 released!


mGBA 0.7 beta 1

Sep 24, 2018 – written by endrift

While it’s been long enough since mGBA 0.6.0 came out that the release of mGBA 0.7.0 has seemed like it may never happen, I’m glad to say we’re finally reaching the end of mGBA 0.6’s time. Due to significant life changes, not the least of which is getting a new job with a long, tiring commute, I’ve not has as much time to do serious feature work. However, there have been plenty of changes, fixes, improvements under the hood. Though mGBA 0.7.0 is almost ready I’d like to see a signficant wave of testing and bugfixes before I deem it stable. As such, mGBA 0.7 beta 1 is now available, and hopefully the release of mGBA 0.7.0 will be out within a week or two.

This time around the biggest areas of change are not new features, but rather significant improvements in existing areas. Please focus on these while testing and report any and all bugs on GitHub or email [email protected].

Game Boy audio has been revamped. It may not sound correct in many cases and narrowing down which cases are reliably broken will help fix them.
New Game Boy peripherals are supported, including the Camera, Printer, and Super Game Boy. Additionally, several new mappers have partial support.
Debugging tools are improved, including a map viewer, conditional breakpoints, and symbol loading.
There are now translations for Italian and French that are not well reviewed and partially incomplete.
Switch support is brand new and very young. It’s very likely to be full of bugs.
The following changes were made between 0.6.3 and 0.7 beta 1:

Features:

ELF support
Game Boy Camera support
Qt: Set default Game Boy colors
Game Boy Printer support
Super Game Boy support
Customizable autofire speed
Ability to set default Game Boy model

AGBPrint support
Debugger: Conditional breakpoints and watchpoints
Ability to select GB/GBC/SGB BIOS on console ports
Optional automatic state saving/loading
Access to ur0 and uma0 partitions on the Vita
Partial support for MBC6, MMM01, TAMA and HuC-1 GB mappers
