Nebula v1.9

posted in Emulator Release by outsider on Sep 1st, 2001

Nebula is a CPS-1/2 and Neo Geo emulator for Windows. Here's what's new:
  • Added a MINIFAQ file, please read it.
  • Fixed Neo Turf Masters driver that crashed nebula in the loading screen.
  • Fixed puzzle bobble romset name to match the latest MAME name.
  • Fixed w2k crashes when pressing the TAB key.
  • Fixed misc crashes on startup in video cards with little VRAM
  • Fixed DDTOD and DDSOM F2 key.
  • Fixed the savestate time being always GMT.
  • Fixed crashes when using ALT-TAB to switch task.
  • Fixed Irritating Maze controls, now it works.
  • Neogeo s1 and m1 roms with wrong sizes are now accepted and loaded.
  • Added triple buffer option to video options.
  • ALT-ENTER key now also works in the GUI.
  • Removed 400x300 resolution from neogeo and added 320x240 as it's closer to the real res (304x224).
  • Rewritten default controls code, now it works with all games, but you'll need to re-map the keys again.
  • Added an option to disable debug dipswitches because they were causing problems in some games. NOTE: Mixing debug switches with Developer mode may cause strange results. If the game has a strange behaviour (fights ending without fighting in rbffs) you must clear the SRAM (by either deleting the game .srm file in the EEPROM dir or going to Test menu, Hardware test press Start till you see the Clear backup RAM screen and then Press the buttons A,C and C simultaneously (default Z,X,C).
  • Added an overclocking option for neogeo games in the machine settings menu.
  • The overclock setting is stored for each game. Overclock only the games that actually need it (mslug2,mslugx for example)
  • Fixed a major bug in savestate saving/loading code that caused nebula crash when loading states. Sound will not be restored when loading previous version savestates to avoid crashes.
  • I forgot to state in the previous version that the neogeo bios MUST be in a file called neogeo.zip (neogeod.zip for the debug BIOS) in any roms folder. Download it from the Multi Arcade Emulators page. Thanks to Blodia_Vulcan for the news
