Snes9xGC (Gamecube) Source Released

Unfortunatly due to RL commitments, i am unable to work on Snes9xGC
(or any of my Xbox projects), so therefore i have released the source-code
so someone hopefully can take over the project.

Some notes about the source:

- Uses libogc. Moving the codebase to GClib wouldnt be too hard.
- Gamepads are supported.
- Memcard routines are implemented but untested.
- Sound is implemented but needs work.
- currently a rom must be compiled into the DOL.
- SuperFX roms are broken, im not sure why

For now some screenshots (click to enlarge) - big thanks to Masken for his wonderful Whinecube gamecube emulator.

New WIP Released

V1.42 WIP 17 June 2004

IMPORTANT NOTE: This build is a Work In Progress (WIP)
build of xSnes9x. As always when using WIP builds, use
it at your own risk. The idea is to keep releasing WIP
builds until all/most bugs are ironed out. When finding
bugs, please be concise and detailed as possible. Please
use the Lantus-X forums at http://www.lantus-x.com/forums
to post your bug reports.

Whats New?
==========

- Added a bunch of HDMA timing hacks to fix issues on the following games:
Dragonball Z2
Super Metroid
Super Battletank 2
Stone Protectors
Home Improvement
Alien v Predator

- DPad Left/Right no longer will exit a menu.
- Added ISO9660 support for DVD Browser
- Added a new rendering option called 'Flicker Filter' which will
turn off the default Xbox flicker filter. Should provide a much
crisper image display. Hardcore SNES freaks should be happier :)

- Added Per game filter/controller config saving.
- No longer will attempt to mount G: if it doesnt exist.

Thanks to Nach for these screenshots:

update!

xSnes9x update! you will be pleased to hear that last week ive sent out beta's to my testers who are currently in the process of testing/breaking/reporting any issues they find.

we are not far off a release folks!

Some folks have been asking me weather the new S-DD1 "on the fly decompression" will be in this build. The answer is no . The Snes9x team do not wish for this to be released until more testing is done, most likely in their 1.42 release and i must respect their wishes.

However, the new xSnes9x will definetly be the last release that requires graphics packs.

And for those interested : Matthew Kendora has posted an interesting journal update about whats coming in future Snes9x builds. You can read his thoughts at http://www.snes9x.com/journal.asp

Snes9x News

wow, great just another screenshot of xSnes9x. You guys must be getting sick of this right?

well actually i posted this screenshot incase you havent been following the very cool news that Andreas Naive has managed to "crack" the SDD-1 decompression algorithm found in games such as Star Ocean and SFA2/SFZ2. What does this mean?

Well say goodbye to those nasty graphics packs that were required to be loaded in to make the roms look correct. The new algorithm will decompress the rom on the fly.

This is a very awesome development for Snes emulation in general - and of course i will be providing it in xSnes9x.

tech heads can follow the SDD-1 decompression thread here
