HalfNES v0.040 is released. HalfNES is an open-source emulator for the Nintendo Entertainment System, written in Java. Currently, it only runs as a standalone Java SE application.

Current Features:
-Now cropping off the top and bottom 8 pixels of the video output, since these are not visible on most TVs and a lot of games render garbage on those lines.
-Added volume slider to options dialog (and rewrote the sound output code as well.)
-Fixed a lot of sound bugs. Crystalis, Zombie Nation, A Boy And His Blob etc. all sound right now.
-Fixed Twin Cobra

HalfNES v0.040 Changelog:
- Added Mapper 68 (Afterburner and Afterburner II)
- Monkeyed around with the audio code, MMC5 sound channels had the wrong pitch and audio was clipping at full volume. Both of those should be fixed. Also fixed sound popping when pausing and unpausing. And in the time it took me to do that byuu made in a week what took me a year. eh.
