This version of DeSmuME releases some odds and ends. A few new games are playable, and RTC works for day/night games. Additionally, the windows and linux ports have had a slew of new features added.

ML TNG Release Notes

--------------------

April 12th, 2009

Beta u40 Released

 

- Further refinement to prior fixes to deal with larger setnames for clones. Some setname changes in MAME 0.130u3 exposed some problems with my initial fix in the last release.

 

- Adjusted the SOURCE and SETNAME display spacing to handle the maximum length of 12 (primarily for clone set names) so that those names will not 'seep' off the edge of the screen.

 

- Fixed in-program web link hotkeys for external lookups while viewing Information (F3).

 

- Typical RESOURCE.ML additions including updating the MESS entries up to version 0.130.
