Pasofami v1.6h

"Additional features of the cassette is not commercially available suction.
In Pasofami is commercially available for domestic sales of the NES cassettes, and database logic to prepare 105 Pattern sucking "Start auto draft" for other cassettes can be automated with a single button suction suction can not be automated.
There · a test run in the emulator and try the suction of 105 patterns for the sample cassette cassette is not in the database and abroad, has added the ability to confirm whether it was able to be dumped.
Suction screen usage "test draft NES game" you press the button, just continue to play while viewing the screen in response to it will appear next to each query message.
If the cassette is not compatible with suction pattern is not allowed.
Famicom Disk Disk Paso (Twin NES) to write bug fixes.
Bug is fixed in size exceeds 32768 bytes sent from one side of the personal computer disk
This bug is a bug that occurred from Pasofami v1.6c, cured by this fix. (As was happening in the Super Mario Bros. 2)
Suction screen layout changes.
Select the type of cassette that suck at the game selection screen first suction, divided a group of items that can be input by the game.
"Configuring Hardware"
"Operation sucking"
"File Save Settings"
"Data Battery Backup function"
"NES-only configuration"
"Set RAM cassette"
"Integration with the Paso disk"
■ be selected game
■ The game machine, "NES" screen when you select
■ The machine game "SNES" screen when you select
The goal is to make and easier to configure every item in game, otherwise the NES game is for a disabled button to 押Senai.
In addition, the battery backup data "read from the cassette" and "write to the cassette" was prepared to be able to easily button."

Dolphin Git 3.0-216

"* Fixed EFB cache index computations in OpenGL renderer.
The previous computation was very likely to go out of array bounds, which could result in crashes on EFB access.
Also, the cache size was rounded down instead of up. This is a problem since EFB_HEIGHT (528) is not a multiple of EFB_CACHE_RECT_SIZE (64).
* Added newlines at end of file.
This avoids warnings when compiling with GCC.
* Don't use the same name for two different local variables.
This avoids a warning when compiling with GCC.
* Changed type of GetTicksPer(Line|Frame) to unsigned.
Avoids a GCC warning about comparing signed and unsigned values in Source/Core/Core/Src/State.cpp.
* Fixed range check on TryParse() for u32.
On x86-64, "unsigned long" is 64 bits wide, so it is possible for a number to not trigger a range error on strtoul() but still not fit inside an u32.
An extra check is added to ensure that 32-bit and 64-bit builds will accept the same numbers."
