What's new:

-Added option to use the Path.ini or to have ZsnexBox create all the directories on the E partition. This will allow users to easily put ZsnexBox on a CD/DVD and run it on any Xbox (without having to create all the directories Path.ini points to). Just change "usePathINI=1" to "usePathINI=0" in the Path.ini before you burn the CD/DVD.

-Screenshots larger than 512x512 are no longer supported. If ZsnexBox finds a preview larger than this, it will not display it. Extremely high res box art will cause a crash (i.e ZsnexBox runs out of RAM), and 512x512 is plenty big enough. HD users at 1080i might want to go even lower (256x256). If ZsnexBox freezes after 2 or 3 games, you are running out of RAM and ensuring previews are no bigger than 256x256 will likely fix the issue.

-Tweaked all the skins to make them easier to read.

Install:

Extract and copy over to your Xbox hard drive. Run "default.xbe" to start.

-Thanks

law56ker for the suggestion of changing the Path.ini to support both methods.

I guess "3.0 Final" wasn't so final.

Thank You! You kick a$$!!

Thanks, this now gives us all the option to use either emulator off a dvd. Thank you for all your hard work. You listened to us and gave us a nice gift for nothing. That's a very nice thing to do! Thanks.

You got a memory leak or something?

Thx nes. This is 90% of the reason I use my xbox still. It's a shame you quit updating, I would love to see more than a 1 byte cheat search(hint hint). Thank you for all your efforts and hope you get bored enough to keep making this the best snes emulator for xbox EVER.

Wow! Unexpected, but appreciated   I don't need the path feature, but it's good to know that you're still listening to the users. I will download it anyway, but it's not on the usual place I visit yet, but no doubt it will soon be (the 3.0 fix was, of course, I've already downloaded that).

By the way, I thought you'd finished XBox coding for a bit? If not, and you're still looking for a project, can I suggest AvP? It doesn't look like anyone else is going to tackle it, and it would probably be the last FPS we'll ever get for the XBox, so it may as well be one of the best (and AvP really is that good).

No. It's fairly complicated and has to do with memory allocation of carts with extra chips and when memory is freed. Previous games are are also not freed when exiting to the menu. They are only freed when the "next" game is started.

Hi nes6502,

Unless I'm mistaken Zsnexbox doesn't support using a USB mouse to play mouse based Snes games... Is it possible that this will be added in the future (seeing as you have just released two new updates!)?
I normally use Zsnexbox for all Snes games because it is excellent but unfortunately have to revert back to using Xsnesx (which is good - but not as good as Zsnexbox to play Mario Paint with an actual mouse.

Thankyou (hopefully!)
