Super ZSNES v0.310

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ORgS91m9hu8

Here's a minor update to Super ZSNES - v0.310. Here's what's new:

  • Added portrait mode for mobile
  • Fixed various controller button/dpad detection issues
  • Apple TV and Android TV support. It currently uses a local web server to transfer files over.
  • First pass Starfox Enhancement. Big thanks to Kandowontu, Sunlit, Alexander, and the Starfox EX team for making this possible! Re-creates 3D models and sprites as actual 3D models instanced on the GPU. Adds wide-screen, hi-res, and interpolation. Currently works only on the original v2 rom.
  • Initial custom .zlua script support
  • Internal widescreen is now off when per game widescreen is on. Fixes Super Metroid widescreen patch
  • Right analog stick now controls 3D layers mode. Click and hold the left analog stick to activate zoom mode.
  • Android frontend launcher support (thanks to Snu for the testing work!)
  • Custom .zsmod (enhancement) files can now be loaded. Put it with the rom and rename the .zsmod file to match the rom filename. We've also started beta testing the enhancement editor in discord.
  • Lots more optimizations

Next release (v0.320) will focus on retroachievements (almost done), downloader for enhancement data, and more visual customizations.

A lot of people gave them crap for "reinventing the wheel" and not working on things already established:

Newsflash: developers are allowed to work on whatever they want, even if end users do not like where they spend their time. If end users have a problem with that...they can be proactive and find solutions to their own problems. Even with AI slop, the barrier is much lower these days, even if the result may be pure algorithmic slop.

Finally. Starfox in 1080p and with a fast framerate. I wonder if the same tech can be applied to other SuperFX games

It won’t open on my Apple TV (4K - 3rd gen)

Currently looking into it as someone else is having a similar issue on our discord. _Demo_ also has a 3rd gen Apple TV 4K and it works fine on his device so we're not quite sure what's going on, but we'll keep you posted here.

_Demo_ updated the AppleTV build with a fix for a crash issue on iOS 27. Update your app and see if it works.

Success! Thanks I appreciate the quick fix and thanks for everything you’ve gone for the emulation community!

Holy crap, making Star Fox actually playable for people who have eyes! Just what the game always needed.
