What's New:
- emulation of the GameBoy, GameBoy Color, and Super Gameboy
- accurate emulation of the hardware, based on research with lots of test roms, useful for debugging/rom development.
some highlights:
* clock exact timing of LCD behavior/state changes
* realistic initial ram values - random but with specific bit patterns, and simulated values left by bootroms (for example "nibbler (pd)" depends on this)
* accurate emulation of LCD register writes during scanline (prehistorik man, demotronic demo)
* emulation of inaccessible VRAM and OAM as on real hardware
* 10 sprites per line limit
* clock exact emulation of sprites causing mode 3 to take longer
* correct memory access timing (access happening at the last/second to last clock of an opcode)
* accurate emulation of the differences between DMG and GBC, including timing differences, differences in hardware behavior, initial state, etc.
* can run a GBC rom as on a DMG, and a DMG rom as on a GBC
powerful debugger:
* disassembler
* assembler (change code and ability to save modified rom)
* symbols (SYM file) support
* "inline" editing in code, data, and stack viewer
* breakpoints
* watchpoints (break on access)
* conditional breakpoints
* "on jump" watchpoints for breaking before a jump into a range is taken.
* source code breakpoints (ld b,b)
* singlestepping/tracing/animating/step out/step over
* reverse singlestep, stepout, stepover (rewinding back in time)
* vram viewer: BG map, tiles, OAM, palette.
* IO registers viewer
* live display of data during emulation and freezing of ram values
* break on exceptions (accessing inaccessible VRAM, read unitialized RAM, echo ram access, access locked external ram, disable lcd outside vblank)
* ability to modify all registers and state at any time
* joypad window allows simulating button presses at any time while debugging
- SGB multiplayer with up to 4 gamepads
- rewind key
- graphics output: GDI, DirectDraw, Direct3D, OpenGL, null output
- graphics doubler: HQ2X, Scale2x, scanlines filter, blocky, dot matrix, GBC RGB
- sound output: waveout, directsound, Xaudio2, null, and disk writer supported. support for writing the 4 channels to separate wav files
- AVI recording, to installed system codec of choice. No sound included but is in sync and conveniently named with recorded wav file.
- runs almost all roms perfectly, compatibility comparable with the best GB/C emulators
- Accurate/high quality sound emulation, bandlimited synthesis
- accurate video emulation including "high color" graphics, correct sprite/background priorities, 10 sprites/line limit, and mid-scanline register changes.
- This emulator is fast.
- Joystick/Gamepad support, everything mappable to every button
- some user interface keys are configurable and can be mapped to joystick/gamepad buttons
- MBC3 Real Time Clock emulation. RTC is saved/loaded in the .sav file, compatible with VBA
- Auto delay/frameskip, emulation runs at 100% real speed and full 60 fps
- GameGenie and GameShark cheat, load/save cheats (auto and manual), "cheat searcher", easy creation of new cheat codes
- save/load state with quick (zsnes style, and mappable) keys, and preview screenshots for slots in select window.
- Load from ZIP and GZIP files
- good OS/platform compatibility/low requirements (works well on wine, windows 98, and on slow/old PCs)
- support for optional border bitmap or PNG file and pseudo and real fullscreen modes.
- TCP/IP game link support

What's New:
twenty-fourth public release. MSXEC is a new MSX emulator supporting the first three generations (1983 MSX, 1985 MSX2 and 1988 MSX2+), their Western Digital-based disc drives and some few additional devices (such as the Konami SCC-051649 sound chip and the JIS 128/256K external ROMs) although the emulation is less developed in some fields than others (VDP timings are inaccurate: Logon System's intro "IO" shows artifacts in the 3D scrollers and the final screen; the MSX-MUSIC interface is minimal, barely able to play notes). Fixed bugs in the Z80 (such as bad inner timings in EX HL,(SP) and EX IX,(SP) detected by Kio's "Z80 Test Programm"), the CRTC (VSYNC loss in the dancing bobs of "PhX" on CRTC4, misaligned HSYNC in Longshot's RV.BAS), the ULA ("snow" in 128K models can leak from different banks than VRAM), the VIC-II ("Super Stock Car" switched the video display off when it shouldn't) and the SID (L-Man's "Amazing Discoveries" failed to play samples; "Mazemania" got weak random values from ports 27 and 28). Added 1088K and 2112K RAM modes to CPCEC (the first version of "Still the One" needed 1024K to run) and REU/GeoRAM RAM extensions (up to 512K) to CSFEC. Code cleanup in several modules, turning repeated paragraphs into several "goto" pointing to a single paragraph and merging several lists into a single table. Streamlined video and audio filters, the former removing the "Half scanlines" video mode and adding two new options: "Microwave static" that adds randomised noise to the image and "Narrow X-Blending" that softens the effect of the X-blending option. CSFEC now has an explicit "Play tape" option instead of autoplay: some titles rely on the user pressing PLAY and STOP on the tape deck ("Super Space Invaders"). Snapshots in CSFEC and MSXEC are optionally compressed with a quick implementation of Emmanuel Marty's LZSA2 method. The user can set whether the screenshots are BMP (default) or QOI files. Removed the Spanish documentation due to lack of readers.

What's New:
Google Translate:
Fixed INT 21h, AX=4404h/4405h/440Ah.
I made a mistake in specifying the handle with BX or the drive with BL.
AX=440Ah has been modified to handle designation, and AX=4404h/4405h has been modified to drive designation.
Improved the built-in debugger.
Corrected code page handling in protected mode.
Also, the execution trace now records whether each instruction was executed in 16bit or 32bit.
(In the case of V30, record whether it is in 8080 mode or not.)
I think the commands can be displayed correctly using the U and UT commands. I added crash prevention measures for conhost-v2 based on
roytam 's fork.
It seems that resizing the window while the cursor is on the last line tends to cause a crash.
Although unconfirmed, we have also incorporated modifications for operation on Windows NT4.0/2000.

What's New:
Fixes
- Should fix the "cannot map RAM:No Error" error.
- Screen garbage when running "Dark Forces" in Windows full screen.
- Scaling when switching to full screen
- Selecting an OpenVPN tap device in the GUI and running tap based networking.
- cdrom entry reset at reboot.
- A possible issue with the startup.wav not playing at the correct speed.
- Fixes full screen issue
- Uninitialized value causing Quicktime image rendering to sometimes fail after mode changes.
- Gamma ramp patch to allow running certain Ambrosia (and possibly other) games.
Enhancements
- Drag and drop of one disk image onto the SheepShaver window. CD, HD, and floppy images show up on the desktop as read- only CDs. Dragging the CD icon to the trash or choosing "Special/Eject" (Mac OS 8 and above) unmounts the image (when selected). Image formats that were already not supported can show up as Audio CDs. You cannot a have a real CD mounted and use this option at the same time. You cannot mount more than one disk image this way.
- Now also plays startup sound upon reboot
- Can now read a preferences file from the command line with - - config filename
- Prevents Windows key press to open Windows start menu, see option Reserve Windows Key in the Keyboard/Mouse tab in the GUI.
- Selectable Render driver on the Graphics/Sound tab of the GUI: Software, OpenGL, Direct3D, giving access to hardware acceleration. If selection doesn't work SDL falls back to software renderer.
- Changed old GUI behavior of refresh rate/frameskip setting being forced to 60hz when video mode fullscreen is selected. Refresh rate setting now stays accessible and also doesn't save to settings as 60hz.
- An additional pref item "sound_buffer" is introduced that sets the size of the sound buffer. Size 0 uses the original size, higher numbers shorten the buffer but increase CPU load.
Manual editing of the prefs file is needed to enable this function.
- An additional pref item "title" is introduced that lets the main window have a specific title. Manual editing of the prefs file is needed to enable this function.
- It is now possible to redirect a tcp/ip port from the guest to the host. Manual editing of the prefs file is needed for this.
- Will now play a sound file named "startup.wav" in the SheepShaver folder at boot.
- Build with msys2, contains a working GUI with the required libraries. Both booting and reading CDs in 64bit Windows are supported.
- Contains a readme explaining how the included keycodes file will map keys on a Windows keyboard to Mac modifier keys in the emulator.
- You can now again boot from and access real CD's in 64 bit Windows hosts, and the cdenable.sys driver is no longer needed in 32 bit hosts (but can still be used).
- Changing CD's is supported (use the polling option in the GUI)
- You can now switch between windowed and full screen modes by using the Ctrl+Enter key combination. All thanks go to our member vasi.
