This release rocks Barry! ^^, tested it and no problems found here ;-). (those that are having issues with this new release should try to use a clean FBA environment, on a clean directory without old configuration files, etc...) SeeYaa! ^^

Idiot, are you a Fba Author? No no...then, make an emulator, a forum, and answer questions like one.

Posted by CaptainCPS-X on 10 March 2009 at 02:15

Ha, ha!, hey tanaduda, have you ever visited an emulation forum? xD, do you know who is IQ_132 ?! xD lol... he does have a forum, he does code (and kicks lot of programmers a**es) and he does answer questions because he is an administrator...so who is the idiot? ...you better do a research =P...idiot.

Still bugs in IPS manager.So regretted.

Posted by barry on 11 March 2009 at 09:32

What bugs are in the IPS manager? I'm not aware of any.

Posted by jjkkyu on 12 March 2009 at 01:03

When after choosing the ips option in the ips manager, it saves a wrong ini file in the folder \config\ips with a wrong filename. So the "Play game with IPS patch applied" menu is still disabled and cannot apply IPS patch. This bug appeared since ver 0.2.97.2 while the previous version didn't have.

I did a search after having blitter trouble, and found that im not the only one with this problem. Apparently enhanced blitters dont work with NVIDIA chipsets, and sure enough i have an onboard NVIDIA chipset and it doesnt work for me. I have to say please keep the HQ2xS (VBA) filter in all future releases because it is in my opinion the best looking filter. It makes my games look amazing. I love your work, i cant wait for future releases.

I am aware of problems with Vista and some NVidia chipsets. I don't have an NVidia chipset though to work with. I don't plan on removing any filters - I might add more in the future though if I find any good ones.

Hi, there is a problem with this release, at least with the rom 'tmnt' and especially 'tmnt2pj'. When you load a save state this appears: http://img5.imageshack.us/img5/8726/gurumed.png Guru Meditation #C0000005.FFFE250F
