ARS-emu version 0.9-beta
Pre-release
Pre-release
There are only two significant things about this release.
- I no longer consider this to be alpha software. Minor features are still missing, and polish is still needed all around, but it's beta now, baby!
- The old, 16-byte-header-based ROM format is gone forever. In its place is a higan-style Game Folder system. If you like your ROMs old-style, zip the Game Folder and voila. If you prefer the higan way, unzip instead. Meanwhile, any ARS game can take advantage of the flexible new
manifest.bml
. Hurray!
This second thing means that compatibility with all existing ROM images is broken. As far as I know, everyone who has produced any ARS software was prepared for this. (That's not exactly a long list.)
