Ootake, a Japanese Turbo Grafx 16 emulator for Windows has been updated today. This release primarily introduces two fixes for the game "Mad Stalker." Here's a complete list of changes in this release:

• The speed and timing were brought close to the movement of a real machine. In stage 5 of "Mad Stalker", the problem that the screen has fallen into disorder was solved.
  
• The processing that decides a vertical start position on the screen has been improved. In the visual scene of "Mad Stalker", the problem that the upper part of the screen cut was solved.
  
• Additionally, a detailed part has been improved and corrected.
  
• The execution file for "Windows 98/Me" was opened to the public. The operation test is not done. Please see "Readme98.txt" in the ZIP file about details and notes, etc. http://www.ouma.jp/file/Ootake247-for98.zip

bsnes, a multi-platform Super Nintendo emulator has been updated once more. One important thing to note about this release is it will use a new configuration file and as such settings will not carry over from any previous releases. Here is a complete list of changes in this release:

• MSU1 now supports audio looping via new PCM file format
  
• disabled state load/save menu due to a serious bug in Qt 4.6.0 for Windows
  
• RawInput: all keyboards merged to KB0, it should no longer be required to reconfigure the keyboard out-of-the-box
  
• RawInput: fixed a bug where Xbox 360 controller states were being overwritten by DirectInput controllers
  
• RawInput: fixed a device sorting bug caused by moving ruby to Unicode
  
• Direct3D: fixed a pixel shader bug caused by moving ruby to Unicode
  
• Linux port: fixed sudo make install target
