"MK_DEBUG_RTO" to try to debug the RTO code. (anomie)

command line option -sdd1-pack. (anomie)
- Added correct VRAM read logic. #define CORRECT_VRAM_READS
if you want it. (anomie)

noticably faster. (MKendora)

of reading the $4xxx registers (MKendora)

interlace bit, we now pass the SNES Test Cart's
Electronics Test (anomie)
- Fix sprite windowing bug (anomie)
- Way back in 1.40 MK changed the Windows port to default
to a plain old joypad instead of the MP5. And then we
removed the hacks for games that dislike the MP5. So
we need to change the defaults elsewhere too... (anomie)

I switched to ZSnes myself. I don't seem to get that problem with slowdowns anymore. Not saying that Snes9x isn't a good emulator, it is. But Zsnes has alot more action on their side

The next version of Zsnes which is due out soon will have SDD1 Decompression, as well as tons of other awesome stuff. At least that's what pagefault says... There is also a new GUI, but not in the coming version. And we all know that pagefault is da MAN.

At the risk of drifting off-topic... did they give up trying to port it to the Mac or not? Pagefault mentioned a few times that one of his friends was working on it, but he hasn't said anything since.
