The old behavior may be restored by setting the new undocumented setting 'filesys.old_gz_naming' to '1'. Previously, a gzip-compressed file named like '' would generate a save game named like '',īut will now generate a save game named like 'whatever.sav', the same as if 'whatever.nes' had been loaded

Changed the naming of save games, save states, etc.

However, loading from a ZIP archive within another ZIP archive is not supported. An M3U file may also exist within the ZIP archive, to allow loading multiple CD images from within that ZIP archive. The ZIP archive may be loaded directly, or indirectly via an M3U file.

Added support for loading CD images from ZIP archives when the 'cd.image_memcache' setting is set to '1'.

Added Zstandard decompression support to game loading, with both naked files('zst' extension) and ZIP archives.

Implemented a limit of 25 on the total number of CD images loaded while processing M3U files, adjustable via the new setting 'cd.m3u.disc_limit'.

Implemented an M3U recursion limit of 9, adjustable by the new setting 'cd.m3u.recursion_limit'.

Added setting 'video.cursorvis', default value of 'hidden', to allow for showing the windowing system's mouse cursor within Mednafen's window even when it's not required.

Added setting 'video.force_bbclear', default value of '0', which when set to '1' will force clearing of the backbuffer before drawing every frame.

Stricter parsing of the configuration file and numeric setting values, with error messages now containing line numbers when relevant.

Mednafen is distributed under the terms of the GNU GPLv2.ĭue to the threaded model of emulation used in Mednafen, and limitations of SDL, a joystick is preferred over a keyboard to play games,Īs the joystick will have slightly less latency, although the latency differences may not be perceptible to most people.

Sega Saturn (experimental, x86_64 only).

Super Nintendo Entertainment System/Super Famicom.

The following systems are supported(refer to the emulation module documentation for more details): Mednafen can recordĪudiovisual movies in the QuickTime file format, with several different lossless codecs supported. Screen snapshots may be taken, in the PNG file format, at the press of a button. Save states are supported, as is real-time game rewinding. Mednafen has the ability to remap hotkey functions and virtual system inputs to a keyboard, a joystick, or both simultaneously. Mednafen is a portable, utilizing OpenGL and SDL, argument(command-line)-driven multi-system emulator.
