                          !  SpeXtrum v0.3 Beta  !
                          !    23rd July 2004    !

 Note: This is a Beta release and as such should be considered in the Beta
 stages of development. Please bear this in mind, as although this is a
 vastly updated version from the Alpha, SpeXtrum may or may not work as
 expected and may contain bugs.  Use at your own risk!

=----------------------------------------------------------------------------=

 Changes:
 =------=
 
 Changed for v0.3 Beta:
 
   + - Fixed memory leak which caused the xbox to hang after 10/15 mins use.
   + - Fixed bug which caused Flicker Filter level not to be saved.
   + - Improved file loading, more snapshots and tape images should work now.
   + - Better optimizations, improved frame rate especially with HQ2x.
   + - File list now 'remembers' its position.
 
=----------------------------------------------------------------------------=


I am very interested to know how people find the changed loading routines working. Hopefully most (all?) of the feedback will be positive.

Also included in the package is a skin configuration for people with a 16:9 display. If you want to try this out, in the skins\\default folder backup the existing skin.xml then rename the skin_169.xml to skin.xml then start SpeXtrum as normal.

As usual please let me know your comments/suggestions.

Great update thanks a lot.

Any chance of being able to adjust the screen position in a future release? It sits just a little to the left on my TV.

Thanks again.

Wow - like a bolt out of the blue 0.3 appears. I just know it's gonna be good. Forget about playing Mortal Kombat at 2fps on MameOX when you can have Way Of The Exploding Fist in all its glory.

Thankyou.  pop.gif

There's someone that hasn't read all of the readme then! wink.gif

Yes screen adjustment will be in a future release, as will save states and control definition.
