Hi, Forgot to post this: openMSX 0.6.1 was released on 31st July, along with Catapult, its GUI/launcher. The most important changes are:
* Ability to switch machines and extensions at run time. * Harddisk images can be changed in the openMSX console or specified on the command line. * IDE CD-ROM support: reads ISO images, no audio tracks yet. * Major V9990 improvements. * New OpenGL 2.0 based renderer "SDLGL-PP", with features: scale factor 4, TV scaler, 3D monitor effect and horizontal stretch (MSX aspect ratio). * New video effects: noise, brightness/contrast, monochrome monitor. * New debugger features: watchpoints (like breakpoints for I/O and memory), Uninitialized Memory Read detector and DI/HALT (hanging MSX) detector. * Made console easier to use by having help and TAB completion for more commands, and a new "about" command to search for a command by keyword. * Support differences between AY8910 and YM2149 PSG. * Support for V9938 with only 16KB VRAM (SVI-738). * Support for Ninja-tap. For the complete list of changes, please read the release notes. You can download openMSX 0.6.1 here [1]; source, Win32 and Mac OS X (PPC) packages are available. Packages for Debian and Gentoo are expected soon in their native distribution systems.
