Lameboy DS v0.11 (GBC emu for NDS)

Lameboy DS is a Gameboy and Gameboy Color emulator for the Nintendo DS.

Release notes:

This release has very short change log and does not address many of the problems pointed out in last post comments. I have managed to fix annoying SGB multi player games input problem though. Apart from this the only difference to 0.10 is emulation speed. Both video render and CPU interpreter were heavily optimized. Sadly some games still won’t do its 60fps.

Since majority of the code base was touched in process of optimization there can be some regression in compatibility. Please report games that stopped working (or degraded in some way) with this version in comments.

Changes:

– changed: optimized software renderer
– changed: optimized cpu core
– fixed: multiplayer pad reading in SGB games (Battle Arena Toshinden and others)

NDSMail WIP (NDS Application)

It has been silent around bronto and his NDS email client “NDSMail”. Yesterday there were some WIP news.

Quote:

It’s been some time since the last release, as I’ve been very busy lately. As a consequence, I will finish implementing some features I’ve started (themes..), clean up the code and look for someone to maintain it. Remembering what happened to a certain instant messaging application, it probably won’t be open source. If anyone is interested, please contact me.

WEP
It seems people are still not aware of it, but WEP is NOT safe at all. See the wikipedia entry.
This is the reason why WEP support is on low priority. If you want security, use a SSL-secured connection.
