Raine v0.96.5 - Released

Details: Category: Multiple Platform; Published: 05 January 2024

What's New:

All the motivation of mer-curious brought this, it's mainly for samsho2pe, "samurai shodwon II perfect hack v1.8", thanks to the info found in final burn neo. This is a special hack this time since it adds a new memory rom mapping to the neogeo driver, never seen before in raine.

Except that I got rid of index_roms.html finally, this file was here as a quick way to get the roms sizes, but actually using the head http command is more efficient (!), and got a proper fix for this weird green screen bug that mer-curious had in windows for way too long... !

IOS (IPhone Operating System) Emulator - touchHLE v0.2.1 - Added

Details: Category: Multiple Platform; Published: 04 January 2024

touchHLE is a high-level emulator for iPhone OS apps. It runs on modern desktop operating systems and Android, and is written in Rust.

touchHLE's high-level emulation (HLE) approach differs from low-level emulation (LLE) in that it does not directly simulate the iPhone/iPod touch hardware. Instead of running iPhone OS inside emulation, touchHLE itself takes the place of iPhone OS and provides its own implementations of the system frameworks (Foundation, UIKit, OpenGL ES, OpenAL, etc). The only code the emulated CPU executes is the app binary and a handful of libraries.

The goal of this project is to run games from the early days of iOS:

Currently: iPhone and iPod touch apps for iPhone OS 2.x and iPhone OS 3.0. (iPhone OS 3.0 support is a recent addition and is not in a release yet.)
Longer term: iPhone OS 3.1, iPad apps (iPhone OS 3.2), iOS 4.x, …
Never: 64-bit iOS.
