    A/NES Announcement...
    Next version of A/NES to be released on Halloween ( 1st of November )

    Here is what the Authors had to say about it:
    As you might have noticed, there haven't been any releases of our emulator lately... That's because we've been busy working on A/NES to make it even better!

    We have now come to that point when we actually have, what we think, an updated version good enough to be released... It will be sent to all the people who has supported us by registering and thereby motivated us to continue our work ( Thanks, you know who you are )...

    All of you who haven't registered yet will be able to get a demo of our emulator, somewhat crippled... It can be downloaded from AmiNet or our official A/NES-page ( http://home2.swipnet.se/~w-28134/ANES/ ) and may be spread freely...

    Both the registered- and the demoversion is set to be released on Halloween ( 1st of November )...

    The newest feature in A/NES is the splitscreen-scroll... Unlike some other emulators which uses "fake" fullscreen-scroll, A/NES fully emulates the NES timings ( hblank, vblank, cycles ) which allows us to do splitscreen-scrollings... However, by doing this other emulators have seemed to run faster, but that's just because they ignore some of the emulation mentioned above...

    For our registered users we now can offer some speedup-options which may in some cases increase the speed by over 100%, making A/NES the fastest NES-emulator available today ( even with full emulation )...

    A/NES will also include some small updates and fixes, the GUI is re-made, still as easy to use, but even more system-friendly... The preferences screen is now finally included and has some nice features, only available for those who have been kind enough to register.

    They are also looking for PD-companies who are interested in selling A/NES and updates for them.
    Take contact with one of the following:

    So now it's only to wait...... for Halloween ;)

27.10.97

    Amiga SuperNES Emulator �2 Released

  • Rendering-routines now display graphics on GFX-boards. (CGFX tested OK)
  • Removed the exclusive flag on the emulation screen.

15.10.97

    Wzonka-Lad v0.90 Released. �Dowload
    Loads of New stuff in this Version:
  • Rewrote the whole GUI! Now gadtools.library is used instead of custom images.
  • Fixed some very rare user interface bugs. GBS loader doesn't give anymore those two enforcer hits when loading an unpacked data file, and it behaves much better now.
  • The hardware filter is now returned to its original state after a pause if the audio is turned on.
  • Removed the iconstartup.i code as it started to give me enforcer hits out of blue. The emulator can still be executed from a icon, but a script must be used (done so by default).
  • Added battery RAM (VGB, AmiGameBoy) support, a different Palette Editor executable, graphics card indirect support via window mode, audio quality selector and an easy path selector.
  • WIN+SCR is replaced by Window on Workbench screen driver, and it's now resizeable, too!
  • The emulator runs now on Workbench! Replaced the old window scheme with a new one.
  • Now every driver allocates its own memory, unlike the old versions where all the memory required by the drivers was allocated on startup, shrinking the memory requirements.
  • Now all AGA modes should have a maximum refresh value.
  • Removed all debug capabilities.
Go
    I put AmiPC-Engine on this Page �Dowload
    This cause there have been some People asking for it.
    It is only a Alfa version but you can see the Grphic in some Games
    Something for AmiEmuLovers.
