  • A new toolbar.
  • Many other enhancements and fixes.
Additional release notes For stability reasons, Jabo's DirectSound will NOT work in 1964. It is not a bug with the plugin or the emulator. It is an issue of incompatibility. Bug Fixes
  • Open Rom, then Pause, Play, Pause, Play, Stop crashed with 1964+Jabo DirectSound 1.5.
  • Could not mute audio plugins on pause.
  • Kaillera crashed on window close.
  • Kaillera rom list sorting problem.
  • Still could access menus in fullscreen with certain plugins.
  • Fix Reset in fullscreen for DaedalusD3D.
  • Netplay option should remain disabled after CloseRom() if kaillera dll not found.
  • Could change plugins with Ctrl+P in full screen.
  • Turn off the real-time profiler and Mario no longer worked.
  • Still losing GUI thread with Azimer 0.2 + Full screen + Micro Machines + Disable VSync?
  • Statusbar must be invisible in fullscreen. Reset full screen buggy in Jabo.
  • Fixed Window placement issues
  • Netplay made the emutalor crash ...or if plugins dialog was loaded before Kaillera dialog.
  • Check QWORD & DMA, crash the emu on exit, and did not work at all.
  • Calling GFX VIDEO_CloseDLL(), then calling Initiate_GFX() every time on play just to resize the window was not a good way to do this.
  • Window position and size recall is simpler, more user-friendly, less confusing.
  • Load & Play in fullscreen, then press escape. Toolbar stayed disabled.
  • Crash on exit after changing from 1964ogl to JaboD3D. This was kaillera unloading bug.
  • GFX function calling order is much cleaner and accurate.
  • Load a zip that's not a ROM and you can't close and toolbar buttons are in wrong state.
  • Lose GUI access.
  • Missing some interrupts
Other Completed Tasks
  • zlib updated to 1.1.4.
  • Kaillera updated to 0.9.
  • Disable all accelerators in full screen except, cheat apply, reset, pause, stop, and change window.
