FCE Ultra .62

posted in Emulator Release by outsider on Aug 7th, 2001

FCE Ultra is a NES/Famicom emulator for Windows and Linux. Here's what's new:
  • Added support for the Famicom Disk System's extra sound channel.
  • Updated the version of Tatsuyuki Satoh's OPL2 emulator used in FCE Ultra from .36f to .37a. The sound quality in "Lagrange Point" seems to have improved.
  • Added support for iNES mapper 242 (used by "Wai Xing Zhan Shi").
  • Fixed a network play bug that could cause desynchronizations if more than one network play session occured since FCE Ultra was started. This bug only showed up on the Windows port, though.
  • Increased the volume of the noise and triangle sound channels.
  • Fixed a save state loading bug.
  • Fixed a small memory leak that was being caused by the VRC7 state loading code.
  • Fixed a bug that could cause FCE Ultra to crash if a virtual disk was being read and the user ejected the virtual disk.
  • Various minor bug fixes/code cleanups. Update: FCE Ultra .62r2 has been released for Windows and Linux, this version fixes a bug that caused incorrect Game Genie emulation in the last version. Get the Windows version from the NES Emulators page and the Linux version can be downloaded from the NES Emulators for Linux page.
