New SNES PowerPak firmware in development

Posted by ManuLöwe on
(Deutscher Text weiter unten!)

As some of you might already know, I've begun to develop an unofficial firmware update for the SNES PowerPak. Up to now, the GUI has been reworked to use the SNES' pseudo-hi-res display mode, theoretically allowing 64 characters to be displayed per line. Apart from a flashy logo and a boot screen clean-up, several completely new features are planned, not to mention the improvement of existing ones. However, due to the massive amount of work involved I can't announce a release date just yet. So ... stay tuned! :-)


Wie einige von Euch evtl. bereits wissen, arbeite ich an einem eigenen, inoffiziellen Firmware-Update für das SNES PowerPak. Bislang ist es mir gelungen, GUI und Textroutine für den (pseudo-)hochauflösenden Display-Modus des SNES umzuprogrammieren, so daß nun theoretisch 64 Zeichen pro Textzeile angezeigt werden können. Daneben wird es ein neues Logo ebenso geben wie (hoffentlich) völlig neue Features, zumindest aber merklich verbesserten Funktionsumfang. Wann das Ganze fertig sein wird, kann ich allerdings nicht wirklich sagen, zumal die meiste Arbeit noch vor mir liegt. Neuigkeiten werden hier bekanntgegeben. Bis dann – spätestens! :-)
