☃ Merry Christmas everyone!
It's been a year since I've posted here, but even longer since a
release for Jnes for Windows, over three years in fact. Since the
last Windows release there were pretty big changes under the
hood to get Jnes to work on Android, and in the background I
have been trying to also improve the accuracy of the emulator.
While Jnes has a proud tradition of playing most games, there are
some subtle hardware behaviors that Jnes was not able to
emulate correctly. I've made some progress on improving that in
this release, you are unlikely to notice it unless it breaks
something. Cheats also got reworked significantly, editing should
be stable. There are a slew of new awesome cheat
codes from Gent,
please give him some thanks for all his hard work in helping put this release together.
Lastly this update brings a much needed upgrade to DirectX 9.0,
which should modernize Jnes on newer versions of Windows, as
well as a native 64-bit version which is just nice to have. It was
discovered during testing that this version may not work on
Windows XP any longer, and I'm not sure why. I decided to move
ahead with the release rather than delay it.
My hope is that this release brings some joy to the world, for
those of you who have been anticipating a new release for a
while please accept this gift with warmest regards, I hope it has
something you were looking forward to. I might be getting a bit
older, but the world seems like it could use a bit of joy and
understanding from each other now more than ever. Please
pass some joy forward to others, especially at this time of year.
Si,baje la version de 32 bit. Pero no funciona en XP. Una lastima la verdad, esperaba tanto una actualizacion de este emulador... En fin. Seguire con la 1.1.1, supongo...
Hi great job on the new release. I have a problem though, Jnes 1.2 refuses to recognize the D-pad on my Xbox One controller. I am using Windows 10 and I have verified that the D-pad is working in other apps.
Thank you for all your work on this, it's a great program!
The new version doesn't seem to like the directional buttons (labeled "Pov0 [Left|Right|Up|Down]" in 1.1.1) on my Logitech Cordless Rumblepad 2.
Yea some input devices seem broken with the upgrade to DirectX8, it's an easy fix stay tuned hopefully I can put out a small patch. Thanks for the detailed and polite feedback.
YOU CAN NOW USE SWEETFX TO SHARPEN NES GAMES!! WAY TO GO JABO!!
since he moved to dx9 u can use reshade + sweetfx! but the xbox d-pad needs fixed bad! please fix jabo
i configured a good sweetfx preset, that brightens and sharpens, removes blur, makes colors of nes games pop more, i would not use hq4x filtering or w/e in jnes options, try default out and see if you like it better now, scroll lock on keyboard activated sweetfx on and off
here is a mega link for the sweetfx, just extract the 3 files and the folder into your jnes folder thats all u have to do!
I dont know if im doing something wrong, but when I download any of the links for this, or any other nes version, I cant open the guide, and no games come with it....
Great application,BUT not working for all nes roms
For example I can't start 1 in 115 nes or 10000000-in-1 [p1][!] nes because I receive - Error mapper #255 unsupported...
I must use other nes application like Mesen_0.9.8 to be able to play on them
Cheers

Hi Alex, This is obviously an issue Jnes has had for many years and are known issues. With some luck maybe one day they shall be updated.
I love your emulator. Thank you so much for the work you've done! It brings back so many nice nostalgic memories from the 80's, playing these timeless games again! Greatly appreciate it!
