I'm wondering when they will release version 1.0.By the way.
On DeSmuME v0.9.10 it's possible to gain Exp on all Pokemon games. Even if you are playing on a clean ROM and without any Action Replay fix codes!
Though there could still be other AP issues (freezes, black screens etc), but I haven't seen any so far.

im guessing they want to make a major update in version 1.0.

Such as?

??? But i cant think of any change they might make...The emulator is nearly perfect as it is.

Prectorian · #14Such as?

AP detection and patching on its own !!

Replying to #16

I've heard in this version in the pokemon games black/white 2 pokemon get exp without using ar codes. Thats really great.

Replying to #17

It does, cause the AP fix for it been added into it's database.

That means now its the final phases of nds emulation...
I mean theres nothing much to do other than making small bug fixes or changes in the UI in the app itself.

Some games was not working on version 0.9.9 or below, will fixed on version 0.9.10 right now!
Here the games list!

Dementium 2 (U) / (E) / (J) = Save games crash? Is now fixed!!!
Transformers Prime (U) / (E) = Graphics glitched randomly? Is now fixed!
4 Elements (E) / Gem Quest - 4 Elements (U) = same as Transformers Prime above!

I think there are more of them! But this games below was not fixed at all.... :(Ratatouille (USA, Europe etc)Problem 1 = Missing bottom screen at stage 3 (cooking tutorial games)
Problem 2 = Missing top screen at stage 4 or later (sewer or underground area)This games was OK on No$gba.... I hope someone fixed this games soon! :)
