1.42 was released many many years ago.

1.50 was released about a year ago.

I'm sure someone in the year 2010 will tell you what has happened since 1.42.

    ...........................................................
    v1.50 - December 22, 2006
    ............................................................

    All Ports:
    ----------
    For this release, we spent much time rewriting, porting, and improving many internal subsystems. ZSNES is a program with over 200,000 lines of source code, and in this release, over 25% of that has been modified; also, around 15% of the assembly has been ported to C. The upcoming list, while large, can't fully describe the amount of work done and the amount of improvements made. Be sure to see the readme to find out how to use all the new features.

    Subsystem Additions/Updates/Rewrites/Fixes/Improvements
    ----------
    • Ryan C. Gordon's ManyMouse support added. [Nach, pagefault]
      This allows the systems compatible with ManyMouse (Windows XP, Linux via evdev if read permission set, Mac OS X) to handle each mouse plugged into the system separately. So now games with two mouse-using devices can be played with 2 players (or 1 player controlling both) on a single PC.
    • Left Handed Mouse Support. [Nach, Deathlike, Jonas Quinn]
      So lefties can have the buttons for a particular mouse swapped if they so desire.
    • Rewrote directory handling system. [Nach, Jonas Quinn, grinvader, Deathlike]
      The old system, dubbed "ZFile", only kept track of files in a limited manner allowing for many many bugs. The new system, dubbed "ZPath", now tracks files and paths in a clean systematic manner to eliminate all file/path related bugs that have made previous versions annoying. All file handling code is now done in C and has many functions to make it easier for anyone else to jump right into this bit of development. This also allows for many new features to be written, and we wrote quite a few. A debug system has also been added, making it easy to track file issues regardless of the operation system in question.
    • ZMV Rewritten - Movie Support. [Nach, grinvader, ipher]
    • Added support for subtitles while playing a ZMV. [Nach]
    • Can now load movies via command line parameter. [Nach]
    • Added parameter to close ZSNES when movie is closed. [Nach]
      Our movie subsystem - ZMV has been completely rewritten from the ground up. Now features such as rerecording (via states and rewind), appending, mouse recording, Super Scope recording (buggy), chapters, start types, frame count, input compression, among other things are now all supported. Note ZSNES can still load old ZMVs; however, it should be noted that ZMVs are somewhat version reliant and may desync on a version it was not recorded with. Also, most of the new features will not work when using an old ZMV.
    • Can now dump ZMVs to AVI and WAV. [Nach, Bisqwit]
      For years, users have requested being able to convert a ZMV to something else; it is now possible.
    • Added IPS multipatch support. Goes from IPS, IP0, IP1, IP2, ..., IP9. [Nach]
      So you can have IPS autopatching apply more than one to a game loaded. IPS files now loaded from save directory then ROM directory. Making it easier for a user to auto patch.
    • Fixed silly mistake with size adjustment of IPS patches. [Nach]
      So now the very rare broken IPS should work.
    • Rewind and ZST code fully merged; rewind should now work where save states do (Fixes rewinding in Super Bomberman games). [grinvader, Nach]
    • Can now use 100 save states instead of 10. [Deathlike, Nach, Jonas Quinn]
    • SRAM is now stored in save states and can be optionally loaded from them. [grinvader, Nach]
    • Can now select how many rewind states you want. [grinvader, Nach, ipher]
    • Can now select how much time is in between rewinds. [grinvader, Nach, ipher]
      Our state saving subsystem has been completely rewritten (although another rewrite is planned) to fix many bugs that used to be present. With the ZST and rewind code merged, it also means no more issues where one works but not the other. This is also now all done in C, making it easier to deal with, as well as allowing many new features as listed above.
    • Parsegen invented (thanks grinvader, gladius). [Nach]
    • Binary and text config files merged into one and heavily updated. [Nach, grinvader, Deathlike]
      We invented a new programming language (PSR), and a compiler for it (parsegen), which allows one to keep track of variables in a simple manner for both developers and end users. Developers can just declare a particular variable to be tracked and forget about it, letting the system manage everything else, making it easy to add as many configuration options as one likes. For the end user, the config file is all in text, making it easy to modify any feature they like or features for advanced users not changeable from within the GUI. It also provides a level of future compatibility so users should normally not have to delete config files between versions. It also allows partial config files, so users can delete certain settings and have them restored to their defaults. All this is possible while maintaining a high level of flexibility.
    • Netplay, Modem, IPX code removed. [grinvader, Nach. ipher]
      As much as we hated to do this, we had to remove all computer-to-computer playing options in order to fix up the other subsystems since the code was spread throughout ZSNES. We hope to reimplement it in future versions and also provide new features.
    • Created new macros and greatly eased GUI development and cut down on size of GUI code. [ipher]
    • Cleaned up GUI and reorganized it. [ipher, Nach, grinvader, Deathlike, Jonas Quinn]
    • Added tab support to the GUI and made good use of it. [grinvader]
    • Rewrote the load game menu, it can now handle thousands upon thousands of ROMs at a time. [Nach, grinvader]
    • Added a custom font system. [ipher, Deathlike]
    • Nach input boxes (video, path) now have a normal blink rate. [Nach]
      Now using our custom GUI should be easier and more straight forward. Almost everywhere you look, you should see a cleaner design, new features, and fewer bugs. See below for more specifics.
    • New unified ZSNES loader which is also less buggy. [Nach, grinvader, Deathlike, Jonas Quinn]
      Now command line options are handled in a more efficient manner, as well as making it much easier for us to add more.
    • Committed the ZSNES development toolkit. [Nach, grinvader]
    • Code is now always in executable sections, fixes NX and many other issues. [Nach]
    • Added utility to auto detect best -march option to compile with; SDL port uses it automatically. [Nach, grinvader]
      For various developers, we now added many utilities to make working on ZSNES much easier. Some of these utilities should be built into the assembler but aren't. These new utilities have also allowed us to easily track down several critical bugs and fix them effortlessly. We also have a utility now to aid the person compiling to get the best optimization out of their build, perhaps now allowing them to use HQ4x or other filters that weren't possible before.
    • Updated build setups. [grinvader, Nach]
    • Added file dependency utility. [Nach]
      All the build setups have been updated to make it easier and more flexible for one to compile ZSNES and encounter fewer bugs along the way. File dependencies can now also be calculated automatically (most notably for SDL), so one updating ZSNES doesn't run into weird issues with only half of a fix being compiled.
    • Ported much assembly to C. [grinvader, Deathlike, Nach, Jonas Quinn, theoddone33, pagefault, byuu]
    • Removed dead code. [grinvader, Nach, pagefault, Jonas Quinn, Deathlike]
      Lastly on our big rewrite, a lot of old junk went, and many complex and annoying features are now in C, meaning that if you know C, now is a good time to start helping out ZSNES development.

    • Many hacks removed (we now have less than a dozen, and we have the least of all the emulators that use hacks). [pagefault, grinvader, Nach, Jonas Quinn]
    • Fixed small screen extra line issues (fixes Super Metroid annoying line issue, so now that guy who keeps on coming into the channel annoying us about it can rest in peace). [pagefault, Nach]
    • Fixed bug in hi-res mode (for example, Lufia 2 ending). [MaxSt]
