NES: puNES v0.111 :: AEP Emulation Page - Emulation News

Rewritten mappers : All.
Rewritten WRAM, VRAM, PRGROM, CHROM and Nametebles management.
Rewritten FDS support.
- Furthermore, an option has been added to select the mode for write operations. Until now, all writes were stored on an external file (diff file) to preserve the integrity of the disk image, now it's possible to choose to write them directly to the FDS/QD file (making it portable to other emulators as well).
- Changed the format of the diff file, now I use the IPS format (which can always be applied to the original image).
Rewritten the format and management of save states.
WARNING save states of version 0.110 or earlier are no longer compatible.
Rewritten the audio of the VRC7.
Implemented the project "A YM2413 emulator written in C" of okaxaki :
