SNem release 0.02 ----------------Changes since last release : Rewritten graphics emulation.

Now line-by-line changes and HDMA are emulated. Mode 7 works better Some 65816 bug fixes - more games work HiROM support (buggy) Improved SPU skipper Now runs at correct speed always (hopefully)

What is emulated : 65816 - about 75% of opcodes. A few major bugs. SPC700 - about 50% of opcodes. Some games need it to do anything (Bomberman 3), some games need it disabled (KSFH). PPU - Modes 0,1,2 and 3 emulated, with full sprites, HDMA, and line-by-line changes. DMA - All channels. Might be some bugs though. Joypad - Joypad 1 is emulated with the following keys : Button Dpad A B X Y Start Select Other keys : ESC F1 F3 F12 quit Soft reset Toggle HDMA screenshot to scrshot.pcx. Remember to trim file to 256x224 Key arrows S X A Z C D

What's not emulated : DSP - well not properly at least... not much point, SPC never triggers note on. Any special chips Command line : snes <file.smc> [-spc] -spc enables the SPC700 emulation, which is incomplete at the moment. Notes : Most HiROM games don't work correctly. Mode 7 is still very buggy. Only a handfull of mode 7 stuff works correctly. The SPC never triggers any notes.

Still quite a few 65816 bugs. There may be a problem with sprite clipping. I've been unable to determine whether that's a 65816 or rendering bug yet. Compatibility : Demos : SONIC.SMC TWEET.SMC CDI.SMC DWARF.SMC Infinity First Drop Nesquik M-DEMO.SMC Works Works Works Works Works Some graphics errors Needs more mode 7 Loads of graphics errors. Press F1 on the third part to get onto the fourth (demo needs reset) Snes Wish - Some graphics errors ATX-DEM1.SMC - Some graphics errors Lynchmob msc - Works, but pointless as there's no sound.
