Xenesis Beta


Xenesis 0.91 Beta - Latest Revision
-----------------------------------

 - Added better screen stretching support (can now toggle aspect ratio on/off)
 - Added screen positioning to the screen stretching option (use left thumb stick to position screen. Use X to centre it)

 - Added Fast Forward facility to help speed up game intros etc (hold left trigger and push right thumb stick to the right)

 - Fixed buggy video mode selection and widescreen support


This release includes a couple of new features and (hopefully) one big problem.

Quite a few people reported problems with their boxes locking when trying to boot the first release. After much scratching of the head I think I tracked it down to some bugs in my video mode and widescreen code. These should now be fixed and hopefully those people that had problems won't have them anymore.

There are still problems with Xenesis and the IGR function of some versions of Evo-X. To be honest I'm not sure what I can do about those other than suggesting trying another version of Evo-X. I will look into it though, but my main focus this past couple of days has been to fix the above issue.
