[Tuxnes-devel] tuxnes-dc v0.2 released

[Jim U. <ji...@3e...>]

I'm pleased to announce the release of tuxnes-dc v0.2,
a port of TuxNES v0.75 to the Dreamcast.  You can pick it
up at http://3e8.org/hacks.html.

Features
--------

- Standard line-based renderer, locked to 30 fps (frameskip = 1).
- Experimental accelerated tile renderer.  Some games work great, some
  games don't.  If you see garbage on the screen, try pressing B to
  clear it up.  Generally runs at 60 fps.
- Sound.  Good, but subject to occasional artifacts.
- Save games.  Only to PC using dctool; VMU saving is not
  implemented yet.
- 6502 interpreted core written in C.
- Basic game select screen.

Changes in tuxnes-dc v0.2
-------------------------

- Added experimental tile renderer (press Y at game select screen).
  Many games work fine.  Press B to clear up screen corruption.
  Runs at 60 fps.
- Sound code much improved; will not break up when speed drops too
  low.  This allows arbitrary frameskip (but the line renderer is
  still locked to 30 fps).  Noise channel clipped from time
  to time due to synchronization issues.
- Fix palette bug that caused colors to be slightly off.
- Fixed some sound and video corruption due to global variables;
  sporadic problems remain.

Hope you enjoy it.
Jim
