It has been a long time with no real updates of SNEmulDS.. This first release break this silence, and i hope it will please everyone. First of all, the main change is the integration of the CPU engine of SnezziDS. In fact, I wanted to make my own CPU engine in ASM, but i rapidly saw that i couldn’t do better than bubble2k did. I recognize his work as a masterpiece in DS homebrews. I personnally added some new features from the original C CPU of SNEmulDS: speed hacks, memory protection, and ROM paging/dynamic reloading (giving Large ROMs support for Slot-1 cards). All combined CPU engine and speed hacks give a great boost in speed. There are also various changes:
+ Implemented MODE 7 + Partial line by line engine for MODE 7 games + Implemented MODE 3,4 (256 colors) + Now SNEmulDS uses devkitpro 20 and libfat library from chishm with DLDI support, for better compatibility + Improved ROM paging, reducing bugs for Large ROMs (> 3 Mo) + Fixed memory leaks (And consequently, fixed famous “Unsupported Large LoRom” bug) + Three level of speed hacks : no speed hacks, medium speed hacks, full speed hacks. Each level give various compatibility and speed enhancements. + Fixed various bugs + Now SNEmulDS sources are under GNU license, to be compatible with snezzids
Lufia I: Amazing! 100% speed on Medium speed hack, up to 130 on full hacks on map with vblank off(less during battles). With wait for vblank off about 60% in battles. Still nice.
It seems now I get little more freezes, but I guess that´s for now. I realized console tries to emulate fade outs and does it nicely, but if I load save state during fade game stays at the state of fade that was there before loading save state. Well, kinda funny
Other than that I haven´t seen any changes in compatibility
This is an old version the new version can be download here: http://www.snemul.com/ds/ and .smc is the right extension for it
