RockNES v1.940 (DOS)

posted in Emulator Release by outsider on Jul 16th, 2001

RockNES is a NES emulator for DOS. Here's what's new in this recent release:
  • Fixed file path for dumped items;
  • Fixed ppu timing (broken from previous version, fixes scrolling);
  • Fixed bitmap centering (640x480);
  • Fixed a major problem with memory leak;
  • Fixed saved states for mapper #0 games (old and undiscovered bug);
  • Fixed RSx state file (removed unnecessary data saving);
  • Fixed a bug in the mapper #1 (from previous version);
  • Fixed mapper #19 (Family Circuit '91 works fine);
  • Fixed MMC3 reset, plus small IRQ timing fix;
  • Added full support for mapper #119 (Pinbot and High Speed are playable);
  • Added a ppu tweak to get Rad Racer 2 working good (maybe more games too);
  • Added support to dump ppu patterns offsets (ROM locations);
  • Added support for paged CHR RAM (used by some mappers);
  • Added a CPU cycle calculation per scanline (not good, but works better);
  • Minor ppu render cleanup;
  • Lots of bug fixes, plus more changes for portability. Download it at the NES Emulators page.
