- Reload code after mapper switch (should fix -l problems)
- Fixed a MMC3 bug.
- Minor bugfix to mid-hblank updates.
Version 0.62 released!
This is a bugfix release only. I want to thank everyone who sent me patches
and suggestions, but I need to fix the old bugs before I start adding new
ones, so many new features didn't make it into this release. Don't worry,
the new stuff is coming soon.
What's fixed in 0.61:
- No scanline IRQs while the display is off.
- Fixed some problems with the sprite 0 hit flag.
- NMI occurs during scanline 241, not at the end of line 239.
- Sprite DMA takes 514 CPU cycles. (Thanks Matthew Conte!)
- Handle v-scroll values greater than 240 like a real NES does.
What's new:
- MMC3 IRQ support added.
- New video code draws pixmap directly instead of calling xlib, which should improve accuracy and portability. It's a bit slower tho.
- Self-modifying indirect jump instruction is now handled properly.
- Corrected cycle count for branches which cross page boundary.
