BioGB / News: Recent posts

BioGB v5 is comming. There is a brutal list of internal changes. There will be a simplified list with the changelog, but i will tell some of them now.

• BioGB has suffered a massive refactorization making code A LOT more readable and easy to understand.
• Code was updated to use the new C++11 standar which helped to simplify some code and to fix a lot of bugs.
• A big list of bugs were fixed, mostly sound bugs, timming bugs, cpu opcodes bugs and a lot of display bugs.
• BioGB now uses SDL2, which is faster, and much more flexible. It also opens the doors for movil ports. Expect them soon.
• Performance had a boost. Thanks to refactorization, some bottlenecks were fixed and now the emulator runs even faster.
• BioGB is now much more friendly with cpu usage. When fps limit is active, it will use a lot less CPU power. This, again makes the way for movil ports.
• There were a lot of memory leaks and some unresponsable use of memory. Now BioGB uses way less RAM memory than before.
• Last but not least, sav files are no logner +MB size. Actually they are compatible with other emulators like no$gmb, BGB, etc. Less space needed to save game progress, great!!... read more

There has been a lot of work fixing some nasty bugs. Although there is no new official release yet, the last code from the stable branch on git has lot of bugs fixed.

There may be a new official release soon.

I have uploaded the new custom site for BioGB. There you will find more info about BioGB.

After some time looking for a place to host the project, i finally got to Sourceforge. Now BioGB is at version 4.3. Also the source code can be obtained through git.
