Service Pack (Patreon)

The results from the poll were quite even but it was clear that keeping high quality is important to you. I have devoted the last few days to fixing reported bugs and have got many out of the way (log). I have also got support for the new MiSTer SYS framework, which means that gamma options and direct video work now. Thanks to Andrew for his direct video testing.

Released cores

Archiving

-MRA files are available in jtbin as separate files

About Popeye, I have fixed the analogue video but I'm not releasing an update now. I am considering adding direct support for high resolution VGA/HDMI output in order to get the sprites display correctly without the interlacing problem. There is now a second Popeye core written in VHDL being ported to MiST at the moment so I may join forces with the author to save us both time.

MiST files have been updated too. For MiSTer you can use the update script or check google drive for the betas.
