HalfNES v0.042 is released. HalfNES is an open-source emulator for the Nintendo Entertainment System, written in Java. Currently, it only runs as a standalone Java SE application.

Current Features:
-Now cropping off the top and bottom 8 pixels of the video output, since these are not visible on most TVs and a lot of games render garbage on those lines.
-Added volume slider to options dialog (and rewrote the sound output code as well.)
-Fixed a lot of sound bugs. Crystalis, Zombie Nation, A Boy And His Blob etc. all sound right now.
-Fixed Twin Cobra

HalfNES v0.042 Changelog:
-Added video smoothing option
-Updated NTSC filter (use with the video smoothing on for best results)
-Fixed sound bug for VRC6 games
-Fixed crash when loading corrupt .nes files
