EmuPack v1.9 RC5 is released. EmuPack is a collection of emulators that have been developed by the emulation communities. An emulator is software that duplicates the functions of the hardware that it is trying to emulate. Basically emulators make it possible, for example, to play Nintendo or Playstation games on your computer. EmuPack is an installer script and frontend that attempts to create an out of box solution for emulation of multiple consoles and file type associations.

Changes since v1.9 RC5:

- This release has undergone some testing with Windows 8, but I'm looking for testers with Windows XP and 32-bit x86 systems to report any issues. - EmuPack has gotten to be a larger download size. Also MESS can emulate some of the same things supplied in EmuPack. Therefore, future releases will not include MESSUI and MAMEUI. There will be a separate offering called EmuPack Plus: MESSUI and MAMEUI which will have a seperate installer and release schedule. - I'm really just waiting for final version of WinUAE 2.4.0 so that I can push a general release. - Please report any issues or suggestions regarding EmuPack in advance. - Future release schedule plans : - EmuPack 1.9.1 will be a service release, scheduled in the 3rd quarter of 2012 - EmuPack 2.0 is supposed to be a special release. In addition to the normal EmuPack installers, there would be additional downloads available for a bootable CD/DVD that would bring you to an "EmuPack Desktop" where you could use the emulators without having an installed operating system. This would remove some system overhead and hopefully improve performance while not actually having to install anything. This project is however no where near ready for beta testing as I still need a solid Windows 7 bootable base CD that comes with DirectX, audio, nVidia and ATi drivers, Windows Explorer and a few other things like Joystick configuration. Help for this project would be much appreciated.
