PCSX2 SVN r1710 is released.PCSX2 is a PlayStation 2 (PS2) emulator for the Microsoft Windows and Linux operating systems. With the most recent versions, many PS2 games are playable (although speed limitations have made play-to-completion tests for many games impractical), and several games are claimed to have full functionality.

PCSX2 SVN Changelog:
r1708
mVU Macro: Some changes for a more correct interlocking behavior again VU0 micro programs.
r1709
Installer Improvements:
* installer will automatically version itself to the svn checkout
* default installation folder, filenames, and links all contain the revision number now.
* Plugins are optionally included into the package (details in txt)
* VC++ Redist detection: the Redist installer is only extracted/invoked if it's not already installed.
r1710
Finished mVU macro, and set it on by default.
Basically this means whenever COP2 recs are used, its calling mVU instructions instead of sVU instructions.
Note: Theres a very-minor incompatibility problem when using interpreters/sVU for VU0 with mVU Macro. But I'll fix it later (and it probably doesn't effect much).

MAME v0.133u4 is released. MAME stands for Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator. When used in conjunction with images of the original arcade game's ROM and disk data, MAME attempts to reproduce that game as faithfully as possible on a more modern general-purpose computer. MAME can currently emulate several thousand different classic arcade video games from the late 1970s through the modern era.

WinUAE v1.6.2 Beta 12 is released.Winuae is the commodore amiga emulator for Windows. WinUAE is a mostly complete software emulation of the hardware of the Commodore Amiga 500/1000/2000. A Commodore Amiga, for those who don’t know, is a 16/32 bit computer system based on the Motorola 680×0 CPU and a few specially designed custom chips that provide very good graphics and sound capabilities. Its first incarnation, the A1000, appeared in 1985, followed by the highly successful A500 and A2000 models. WinUAE is a port of the originally written for Unixish systems UAE; but over time, it seems the Windows port, WinUAE has become the best version available on any platform. WinUAE is free software: you are welcome to distribute copies of it and/or modify it, under certain conditions. There is no warranty of any kind for UAE. For more details concerning these issues, please read the GNU General Public License, which describes the terms under which WinUAE is distributed.

WinUAE v1.6.2 Beta 12 changelog:
- increased vertical filter display buffer size by 4 pixels (max PAL overscan fully visible now, again..)
- autovsync vertical resolution autoselection really works now
- more MMU fixes, Linux boots now. MMULib does not work but it most likely is a bug in MMULib which expects some undocumented behavior of 68040 (like how ATC caches work etc..) Commodore's 68040.library works. Note that native code (for example filesystem emulation) can't support MMU address translation (impossible to call bus error handler from non-68k code without some heavy black magic) -> any non-debugging MMU software most likely won't work without using IDE or SCSI emulation. MMU support is considered finished now. Enforcer and Linux working = good enough
- version number bumped to 2.0

Jpcsp SVN r1150 is released.JPCSP is a PlayStation Portable(PSP) emulator which is written in JAVA. JPCSP is the first PSP emulator that is written in JAVA. Most people think java is too slow. But Shadow and his team has proven us wrong. The newest Java versions are almost as fast as C which makes it very interesting for emu dev's. Shadow and his team are working day and night with pleasure on the emu, many coders have dedicated to the project. Because it's written in java many young devs find it interesting to learn how the emulator works.

Jpcsp SVN changelog:
r1148
cb3: disabled pre-emption to match trunk
r1149
first attempt at sub intr support. GE callbacks and sub intr will now trigger on any syscall, not just wait CB syscalls.

PCSX2 SVN r1707 is released.PCSX2 is a PlayStation 2 (PS2) emulator for the Microsoft Windows and Linux operating systems. With the most recent versions, many PS2 games are playable (although speed limitations have made play-to-completion tests for many games impractical), and several games are claimed to have full functionality.

PCSX2 SVN Changelog:
r1692
wxgui: A few Linux related changes.
r1693
wxgui: Correct r1692.
r1694
microVU: Made the flaghack safer by accounting for some problematic case.It fixes the few games I have that were having problems with the flaghack (but the speedup the flaghack offered in those games has been lessened).The speedup on games that weren't having problems before should be around the same as before; (in other words: games that were compatible with the hack should
still be as fast as before, and games that had problems with the hack will probably be fixed but the speedhack won't do as-much)
r1695
wxgui: Connected up the CPU panel controls so that they do something, and fancied up the "Apply" button so that it ungrays only after changes to the config have been made. :)
r1696
wxgui:
* synched with trunk to pick up all new cdvdiso fixes.
* configuration wizard now starts if pcsx2.ini is missing/deleted.
* changed GetWindowChild (MSW specific?) to FindWindow.
r1697
More CDVD and cdvdiso bugfixes: cd-rom images should work now (ie, the old school non-DVD sort!), and improved the error and async read handling (possibly affects people running games from dvdrom)
r1698
A quick fix to prevent creating dumps with the built in iso code from crashing.
r1699
It fixes the compilation error in Windows, or it gets the hose again.
r1700
Fix a typo causing *.dump files not to appear in the "Run ISO" file browser.
r1701
More CDVD fixes. I *think* this revision might provide some noticeable speedups when running games directly from cd drives. Also built-in CDVD blockdumps work now (DVD images only, legacy CdRom games still don't blockdump right unless you use the cdvdiso plugin).
r1702
More Macro VU work
r1703
microVU: Removed the use of an offset-register for referencing VI regs.It didn't make any noticeable difference speedwise, and removing it will make mVU macro code simpler.
r1704
mVU Macro: Implemented more instructions...
r1705
Changed the chcr stuff over to bitfields, and got various other bitfield stuff ready for later on.
r1706
Fixed typo.
r1707
mVU Macro: Implemented more stuff and did a big cleanup.

SSF v0.10 Beta R1 is released.SSF is a Sega Saturn emulator for Windows systems using DirectX 9.0b. The current version claims near-complete implementation of the Sega Saturn hardware (not counting emulation bugs), and can emulate the Saturn based Sega Titan Video arcade hardware too. As with most emulators, CDs or disc images are not included and have to be owned separately. The BIOS is also not included; as of 0.07 Beta R3, games run without the BIOS however. The usage of BIOS files is optional but recommended for better compatibility, and needed for tasks such as management of the contents of the internal memory of the Sega Saturn, or setting the system clock.

SSF v0.10 Beta R1 Changelog:
- Fixed CD Block.
- SCU interrupt handling fixed.
- Single CPU Apuriera Fixed a bug that occurs when you start the machine.
- State saves data changed version.

BlueMSX Wii v1.0 Final is released.BlueMSX emulator ported to run on Wii. The BlueMSX-wii emulator can be started using the homebrew channel. For this purpose, the necessary files (main .dol file, icon.png and meta.xml) are released with this project. The best location for these files will be SD:/apps/bluemsx-wii/.

Except from the main .dol file, the BlueMSX-wii emulator needs some files on the SD-card. Most of the files are embedded in the .dol file and will be placed on your SD-card when the emulator is first run. These files will be placed in the directory SD:/MSX/.

Additional to these files, there needs to be a gamepack. As distributing the rom files gamepack is not 100% legal, these will not be supplied through the google code project.

BlueMSX Wii v1.0 Final Changelog:
* Updated to BlueMSX V2.8.2.
* Added full support for GameCube controller.
* Fixed problems with 'save state'. Also improved speed of saving a lot.
* Allow empty screenshot elements in gamelist.xml files (did crash before).
* Missing 'Screenshots' sub directories are now automatically created (on generating screenshot).
* Solved showing wrong day of state files.
* Embedded game pack will only be installed when no game pack is already installed.
