Version 4.1

V4.1 : 25-Jan-2025 by wavemotion-dave

• Refactor the OS Enable/Disable on XL/XE emulation to avoid moving large blocks of memory. Speeds up many games that swap the OS in/out.
• Improved SIO/Disk handling - sound effects reduced in volume and now configurable (default is OFF).
• Improved cart/disk loading and all disks are left mounted when RESET is pressed allowing you to load up a system the way you want.
• A dozen new .CAR cartridge types supported including DCART (Bubble Bobble homebrew).
• Tweak to the TWL++ icon for A8DS to make it look a bit more classic.
• Many small cleanups and improvements and a few bug fixes as well.

Version 4.0

V4.0 : 20-Jan-2025 by wavemotion-dave

• Major overhaul to add "Cycle Exact" Antic and GTIA which fixes many glitches and artifacts.
• There are now two builds... one for the older DS-Phat/Lite and one for the DSi (or XL/LL) which brings in a higher level of compatibility with the "Cycle Exact" timing.
• Improved keyboard overlays - added alphanumeric keyboard with text-adventure macros.
• Improved memory handling - using more memory but in an efficient way for the new features.
• Improved sound handling - new SIO sounds, new opening jingle.
• Improved CPU handling to fix one more Acid800 test (25 pass now).
• Fixed keyboard handling so games like Scorch will register keypresses (broken as of V3.0).
• Added some of the more obscure missing .CAR cartridge types.
• So much changed under the hood that old config files will be wiped and old save states will not work. Sorry!

Version 3.9

V3.9 : 13-Jan-2025 by wavemotion-dave
