On previous beta versions, only the menu flickers, but the ROMs play OK. Try to load a ROM and check that it is displayed properly.

Lol, I think beanfarmer is saying that the flickering IS only on the menu, but a bit of punctuation would make it easier to read!
 
I've already adressed this issue, I'm halfway through adding some extra functionality to DrMD but I'll try and quickly hack another version together tonight, no promises though..I've got a bottle of JD and I'm not afraid to use it ;)

To help out other devs, was the cause something interesting?

I'm guessing they have changed the way the vsync flag works again. My new version of DrMD does not use the vsync flag at all and so should be unaffected but I have not tested yet.

I've got a bottle of Old Smuggler and already using it here, and the urge to donate is...rising. Completely off-topic I know, but your emulator is the reason I bought this thing. Fantastic work!

Let me know any problems here and I'll try and sort them out.


Menu flickering has gone.


I've tried about ten games without problems.

A couple of games that worked fine on previous release (Boogerman, Earthworm Jim)
but neither seem to work now. Intro and menu plays but game fails.

interesting, I shall investigate. Thanks for the feedback.

Weird, try loading Earthworm Jim 2, then load Earthworm Jim, it should then work....looks like I've screwed the memory banking in some way. I should be able to fix this.
 
Sonic I doesn't work anymore with me for some reason, as do some other games. Some games crash in such a way that I can only reboot to resolve the issue.
But I'm not complaining.

EDIT: But now Sonic works...
And Earthworm Jim always works just fine, unlike some experience. It all seems quite random
