What's New?

-----------

v0.2.95.23

This is still an alpha release!

Note that, if compiled with GCC, you will need to use version 3.3.x, and

the experimental DirectX 9 blitter is not built.

- Changed the way FB Alpha looks for ROMs. Now, it will always check the last

path for any given .zip file, even when a .zip file of the same name is

present in another path. This way, we can keep ROMs that are only needed

for FB Alpha separate

without sacrifising compatibility with other emulators;

- Changed the way Neo Geo memory cards work, allowing the use of 1 megabit

cards;

- Emulated protection in Super Sidekicks (was patched before);

- Fixed the last few bad game names / bad ROM definitions;

- Fixed a few minor issues in the makefile for mingw/cygwin;

- The debugger is now only compiled for debug builds;

- Minor updates to compile documentation;

- Fixed a crash at startup for some systems when autopause was activated;

v0.2.95.22

This is still an alpha release!

Note that, if compiled with GCC, you will need to use version 3.3.x, and

the experimental DirectX 9 blitter is not built.

- Implemented workarounds to the FB Alpha executable to allow the use of windres

as the resource compiler (it cannot zero-terminate strings or use a string as

an RCDATA resource);

- Cleaned up the makefiles (variables/options now defined in the main makefile);

- Fixed a few game names / bad ROM definitions;

- Fixed CPS1 games sound / crashing if started as the 1st game;

- Fixed the Psikyo games that use an YM2610 for sound;

- Fixed a few problems with ANSI builds;

v0.2.95.21

This is still an alpha release!

Note that this version CANNOT be compiled with GCC!

- Shortcut keys have changed;

- Directories used by FB Alpha have changed;

- Readme updated (read it completely even if you've read the earlier
