AppleWin v1.27.13.0 is released. AppleWin (also known as Apple //e Emulator for Windows) is an open source software emulator for running Apple II programs in Microsoft Windows. AppleWin has support for most programs that could run either on the Apple II+ or the Apple IIe. By default, AppleWin emulates the Extended Keyboard IIe (better known as the Platinum IIe) with built-in 80-column text support, 128 kilobytes of RAM, two 5.25-inch floppy disk drives, a joystick, a serial card and 65C02 CPU. AppleWin supports lo-res, hi-res, and double hi-res graphics modes and can emulate both color and monochrome Apple II monitors; later versions of AppleWin also can emulate a television set used as a monitor. Both 40-column and 80-column text is supported.
AppleWin can emulate the Apple II joystick (using the PC's default controller), paddle controllers (using the computer mouse), and can also emulate the Apple II joystick using the PC keyboard. AppleWin can also use the PC speaker to emulate the Apple II's sound if no sound card is available (does not work under NT-based Windows versions). Full screen mode is available through the use of DirectX. Features added to the latest versions of AppleWin include Ethernet support using Uthernet, Mockingboard and Phasor sound card support, SSI263 speech synthesis, hard drive disk images and save states.
AppleWin v1.27.13.0 Changelog:
[Bug #599] Fix for Ultima V not loading in Authentic Speed mode (regression introduced at 1.27.9.0).
[Change #205] Added support for Apple II/II+ custom 2K video ROMs.
Extended command line switch: -videorom
If the ROM size is 2K, then it replaces the video ROM for the Apple II/II+.

added floppy 1541-II support
support for d64, g64 images
emulates up to 4 drives
correct drive <-> drive synchronisation (e.g. Maverick Dual Drive Copy)

This update adds some finishing touches to the old version, most notable being a 2-line star effect on stage names, graphic updates and a script revision. People send a lot of messages about this game so hopefully this final update will be ok. This is also the last of the old RPGONE translation updates.

A translation patch has been released for Majin Tensei II: Spiral Nemesis, a strategy-RPG for the Super Famicom. (The translation patch is available in both .bps and .ips format.) Patching the Japanese rom will allow the game to be played in American English.
The hacking was done by DDSTranslation, the script was translated by Tom, and the title screen was created by FlashPV.
A translation of Majin Tensei, the first game in the series, is also planned to happen at some point in the future.

Metal Max, Crea-Tech’s classic post-apocalyptic Famicom RPG about blasting the hell out of everything with tanks, has finally received a full English translation!
Metal Max tells the story of a boy who, kicked out of his father’s house, becomes a Monster Hunter. Amassing a fleet of tanks, he and (optionally) a couple of friends roam the ruins of the world, seeking the bounties on wanted monsters and the occasional human.
It’s one of the first open-world JRPGs ever made, and boasts intricate but intuitive vehicle mechanics that became a series trademark. The game’s design was years ahead of its time, and while its open-ended everything-is-optional gameplay befuddled many contemporary critics, it’s today recognized as one of the all-time greats in the Famicom library.
This English translation patch is the work of Supper (hacking), TheMajinZenki (translation), cccmar (editing and testing), and Xanathis (testing). Special thanks goes to Filler, who initiated the project. This marks only the second completed fan translation of a Metal Max game to date; here’s hoping to see more soon!
A lot of care has gone into making this a quality translation, so enjoy!

v1.2 of the English Translation has now been released. A lot of improvements have been made and this is now much more polished than the old version. The minigame crashing issue from v1.0 has been fixed. There are various graphic updates such as for world map names and minigames, and some new hacks added like for the dialog cursor and expanded title screen options. A new ending has also been created which appears after you beat the final boss.
Updates for the German version by Ghettoyouth and Spanish version by Crimental have also been recently released.

Today we have something special to present.
Earlier this year I was approached by Frazer Rhodes and Garry Casey to restore and host the Neo Geo fanzine: New Earth. Volume One consisting of 15 issues was completed rather quickly, but due to various circumstances, not to mention ongoing health issues, Volume 2 took a while longer to complete. Finally we are ready to release Volume 2, which means that all 15 issues of the second season are now ready to be read on the site itself, or to be downloaded in much higher quality for safekeeping. You can find Volume 2 on the following page.
Enjoy!
