Half byte Loader R97 and wMenu 0.3

August 8, 2010 in HBL, release by wololo | 55 comments

This revision fixes a few minor bugs, some of them might be important to you.

First, a graphical glitch has been fixed. Because of that, Homebrews such as PSP Rhythm were technically unplayable (@Muffinhead: you owe me ). Others such as FCEUltra or Doom had minor graphical issues because of this.
Additionally, I added a shortcut to quit homebrews that don’t have an “exit” button. Yes, the “home” button is still broken, but now you can exit most games by pressing select+start for a few seconds. (Note that some homebrews such as gpsp still crash upon exiting, this is unrelated). The “select+start” combination can be changed in the hbl config file, or even customized for each homebrew (as usual, by putting a hbl_config.txt file in the homebrew’s folder)
The distrib version now ships with wMenu 0.3, which allows you to navigate in subfolders, so you can now split your homebrews in several folders if you use wMenu
Other minor bugs were fixed, which shouldn’t make any visible difference (check the changelog included for details)

Here’s a video showcasing the new features

Well i dont have Battle Tanks so i cant really help with that one But Super Mario should be working just fine. I ahve it on frameskip 1 with the sound on and it only slows at certain points where there are alot of objects. Mario Kart runs perfectly though

Sorry i couldnt help out more with Battle Tanks.
