higan Changelog:
* v107.8
* v107.7
I've started on a new multi-system emulator, byuu.
It will share all cores with higan, and as such will be focused on accuracy and self-documenting code foremost.
But unlike higan, I will do everything possible to make the program featureful and easy to use.
The way I'm doing this is through a translation layer to abstract higan's tree-view into a list-view.
The list-view is similar to higan v106 and earlier. I'm also going to add more ease-of-use improvements from bsnes.
The list-view will sacrifice support for extreme edge cases, but should more than make up for it in ease of use.
bsnes' success greatly exceeded my expectations, and resulted in many improvements to higan's SNES core as well.
But unfortunately, bsnes is for the SNES only, and I just don't have the bandwidth to maintain 24 emulator projects.
As such, the goal of this project is to try and create an easy-to-use alternative for *all* of my emulator cores.
Right now, I'm maintaining this as an alternate user interface target inside the higan source tree.
Long-term, the intention is that higan and byuu will be equal emulators, rather than one being a superset of the other.
I don't know how that final form will look just yet, but for now, this will at least allow me to keep the history in Git.
I do ask that binaries not be distributed of byuu until the software is ready for release.
I wouldn't even recommend using it. It's not really functional at all yet. But it'll get there over time.
