Mupen64Plus v1.5 is ready!
It has been just over half a year since the last major Mupen64Plus release, so it's been a long time coming, but I'm happy to present version 1.5! This release is more evolutionary than revolutionary, with many code cleanups and improvements to existing features. Please try it out and report any problems that you have on our Google Code Issue Tracker.

Major New Features

* Qt4 GUI by slougi, Tillin9, and others
* Support for Macintosh OSX platform with Intel CPUs


Minor New Features

* Debugger improvements
* QT GUI: translations for English, Norwegian, German, and Dutch
* Configurable key commands for special emulator functions
* Our own custom test ROM, courtesy of Marshallh
* jttl_audio: added GTK GUI configuration dialog
* soft reset function (hit F9)
* jttl_audio: both SDL-based and OSS-based volume control methods are now supported
* LZMA, BZip2, 7-zip archive support
* Multi-file Zip support
* GTK GUI: user-configurable columns in ROM browser
* LIRC - added support for speedup, slowdown, pause, and frame advance


Bug fixes

* There are dozen of bugfixes included, fixing problems with: save states, certain games, crashing bugs, GUI bugs, performance issues, and visual artifacts.


Mupen64Plus has a Home Page over at Google Code, with lots of useful information, screenshots, a bug tracker, a discussion forum, etc.

Awesome! Do you know if this version can play the intro to DK64 correctly? Last I tried, there was no emulator that could.

Well this is the first time I've gotten a copy of Mupen64plus with everything needed included, so that's a good start. In the previous version, I couldn't find an RSP plugin for the life of me.

I'll try to remember to respond again when I get a chance to really try it out, but my gamepad is currently in my car and I don't feel like retrieving it right now.

Wait, is that the same Marshallh on the Ben Heck Forums? I didn't know he was a part of this project.

Lovely! I'm going to test it soon. :)

I heard that this version fixed the menu pause delay in Zelda OoT, but it still takes about 2 or 3 seconds after I hit start for the menu to load. Is there a setting I have to adjust to fix this? The Water Temple is driving me nuts. Thanks.
