melonDS 0.9.2 is out! Apr 26th 2021, by Arisotura |
This release brings some welcome changes. Namely, improved Mac support: there have been fixes to the JIT, but also to the interface, so things should work more smoothly under macOS. melonDS also supports loading ROMs from the most common archive formats, now, which means users with large ROM sets should have it easier. We also have a new menu listing the ROMs you have opened recently, making it quicker to open them again. We got new fancy screen modes courtesy Generic. These make it possible to use 16:9 hacks along with melonDS, among other fun things. Speaking of renderers, he also went and fixed a whole bunch of OpenGL issues. The cart interface refactor was finished in time for this release, and with it, support for NAND save memory. WarioWare DIY and Jam with the Band are now able to save correctly under melonDS. And, as usual, there are a bunch of other misc changes, which you can find about in the changelog or commit history. Enjoy! melonDS 0.9.2, Windows 64-bit melonDS 0.9.2, Linux 64-bit melonDS 0.9.2, Linux ARM64 melonDS 0.9.2, MacOS 64-bit melonDS 0.9.2, MacOS ARM64 melonDS 0.9.2, MacOS universal |

there were a few little optimisations, so that could have made the trick if previously you already almost hit fullspeed. For best performance enable the JIT and use the software renderer. |

Hi, I was able to activate the OpenGL renderer by changing the file melonDS.ini (3DRenderer = 1), this way it worked! |

How do we update MelonDS, I have 0.9.1.0 and would like to update but keep all my settings, and there is nowhere really online that shows or explains how to update it. |
Arisotura says: May 6th 2021 |
you can just put it in place of the previous version |

Hi, First of all Thanks a lot for this great emulator. I've been using melonDS for playing Pokemon games. I use Desmume for RNGing Pokemons and melonDS for regular gameplay. Now I just saw the new SPI thing and how great it was. Does it mean my saves that I used with older versions of malonDS or desmume have something that should not be in there if they were from a real gamecard? I'm sorry for asking this weird question but I'm an OCD patient and I couldn't help but asking it. |

Hi, I currently have 0.8.3, but I don't know the exact steps to update it to the 0.9.2 version. Where should I be extracting the file? |
Arisotura says: Jul 3rd 2021 |
just replace the old .exe with the new one, you may have to check emu settings (BIOS/etc) too |

Runs so much slower than 0.8.3 for me for some reason. JIT on and off. 0.8.3 ran the BIOS at full speed, 0.9.2 not so much. Is there a setting I'm missing? It's been like this since 0.9 came out... |
