That and a new renderer that has yet to be fully implemented that should take care of the changing-VMODE-in-the-middle-of-the-screen problem.
Be sure to look for all of these improvements to show up soon in those other two closed-source Jaguar emulators...

Well, concerning the last remark. It's ackward that the other emulators are at a deadend when the developers from Virtual Jaguar/SDL take a "small" break

And it's indeed true, the current codebase (allthough not clean and full of remarks, unused code, etc) is much better then what we started with.
Currently I'm going through all my Iomega ZIP backups (I got about 54 ZIP disks lying around here) to look for some of the old code, especially Handy/SDL. Currently I found old code from NeoPocott/SDL and BoyCott Advance/SDL so I'm hoping I can find Handy/SDL as well. If I get the code back (which I really hope so) I'm gonna get it in par with v0.90 sources, rewrite everything what's SDL based and release it. This is offcourse if I can find it, otherwise it's back to the developer editor for to rewrite everything from scratch. And I really do hope I get the code back since the soundcode was something really ackward and needed a lot of hacking

PS : Shamus, currently I'm on #ngemu. So if you get the chance, drop by to say hello. We have a lot of catching up-to-do
