I've done a lot of work since the last release, you can check the change.log file bundled with the emulator for details...

This version has sound, is way more compatible than the previous one, and is reaaaaally slow There isn't any sound during the bios logo due to the lack of DSP, but I assure you that sound is working (check the Cotton games in ST-V for instance )

I will work on the speed for the next version, and I'll try to release more than one version a year...

Emu#dreams reports that Haze has been hard at work on MAME, the Multiple Arcade Machine emulator, today. Now he's gone and added support for Mad Ball, an adult-oriented game. Below is his post on his MAME WIP page.

My unhealthy obsession with emulating Korean pr0n games continues…

 

(why do half the games I try and emulate turn out to be pr0n anyway???)
