ZsnexBox 2.99b1


What's new:

-Added support for looping classic video game music.

-Added support for Microsoft Soundtracks

-Added a new Music player skin.

-Added an animated frequency bar for the music player.

-Added option to resize/move the music player and frequency bar

-Added option to loop songs when playing from a soundtrack.

-Added option to play an entire soundtrack (one song after another). The soundtrack will start over when all songs have played.

-Added support for 5 fonts that can be picked from the GUI

-Added 5 media player skins

-The preview + preview border are now displayed when resizing either.

-Optimized the memory usage a bit.

-Removed a lot of dead code.

-Added "resume music" when the user picks a classic track or an Xbox soundtrack song. The music will continue playing after exiting a game.

-Added a TV calibration option. This can be used to adjust the Contrast, brightness, and color on your TV for use with ZsnexBox (or any other Xbox app).

-Updated to blarggs latest music library

-Thanks
-blarrg for more code and the excellent music library
-The people who made the sonique skins I borrowed
-Anyone I forgot

Note:

This will be the last release from me until early next year. I recently got a new job that's going to move me across the country. So it will be a couple months before I get settled (or get internet access). I won't have any time to put towards ZsnexBox, but development will resume in January.

Everyone have a good holiday

Nes, thanks for the release.  When you DO get a chance to make another release can you add the following: two or three preview panes that can show two or three bitmap/jpeg/whatever images for each game I scroll through?

Meaning when I scroll through and get to say "super mario world" I'd like to see:

The box art
The cartridge
A screen shot of the title screen or whatever


If that's too complicated I understand, but I just thought it would be nice.  I have all the images already, but I don't have the ability/knowledge/time to code.

Thanks.

Does znes have online play or whatever? I know that a nes emu i have has an emulator... I'm new to this particular emulator but I think it would be great to have it where I could play online against friends and stuff and even be able to use my xbox headset... tongue.gif

I guess that it would be complicated. Surreal 64 XXX supports that because the N64 game library is fairly small, but the SNES game library is huge, a lot of work would be needed.

EDIT:It might not be so complicated if the image files have the same name as the rom, or something like that.

He's getting away, break his leg.

Actually, I guess that means I'm out of here for a couple months too.

Awesome release as alwasy!

I know I've asked this before (and been promptly shut down) but I just have to ask again...

Is there any chance you'll be adding SMB support?

Ouch no new releases in two months or more, it´s a pity  sad.gif, but as allways great update.

The only think i  could request now is an update to a newer core. I´ve heard that new zsnes wip version will be more compatible due to the job done in bsnes biggrin.gif

Good luck with your new job  and good holiday too wink.gif
