PGEN v1.1
posted in Emulator Release by narvick on Nov 17th, 2003A new version of PGEN, a Genesis emulator for PS2, was released today! It's been awhile since the last release, which was mid-April. Changes include:
- Just about all PS2 specific code rewritten
- Started using gsLib for graphics
- Added scroll bar to romlist and Save Manager
- Added suppor for loading ROMs from the memory cards
- Added HDD support. Now possible to save/load states and options to the HDD, and load ROMs from the HDD
- CD refresh rate obsolete, removed
- Added support for zipped ROMs
- Filtering now available for rendering (hardware linear filtering)
- Saved states now use zlib for compression. Old saves are incompatible
- Killed support for OLD JAP consoles (sorry :P)
- Fixed bug with FIFO empty (VDP control port) emulation. Fixes games such as Wonderboy 5 and Splatterhouse 2
- Added multitap support for use in 4 player games
- No longer load modules from cdrom, making it possible to boot from a memory card via the PS2 Independence exploit
- Many other misc changes
