  • Games made between 1992 and 1996 by developers Capcom and Capcom Production Studio 1

  • Games supporting 5 to 8 players

  • Games containing “Mario” in the title released between 1988 and 1994

These are just some examples of what is possible with this new system. It’s a pretty powerful system, and we hope this gives you a lot of flexibility to better organize your content.

Changelog

1.12.0

  • CONFIG/CLI: Allow use of –appendconfig with override cfgs instead of getting ignored

  • CONFIG/LOGGING: No more console startup logging if logging to file

  • CONFIG: Saves config on exit only once instead of (worst case scenario) 3 times

  • DATABASE/EXPLORE/VIEW: Add View feature – Add saving of a filter set in the Explore menu into a so called “View” file which then gets listed alongside playlists. This also adds the ability to filter a category by range in the Explore menu and not just filter on exact matches.

  • FILEBROWSER: Fix regression – certain extensions keep disappearing

  • INPUT/HAPTIC/OVERLAYS/ANDROID: Improve haptic feedback for input overlays

  • LINUX/MALI FBDEV: Add conditional support for OpenGL ES 3.x

  • LOCALIZATION: Updates

  • LOCALIZATION/ENGLISH: Add British English language option

  • LOGGING/QT: Increase log buffer to 2048 characters – Vulkan validation layer messages output correctly now.

  • MENU/XMB

    Remember selection per main tabs.

    Addresses the following

    collection playlists can contain hundreds or thousands of items. When scrolling through one, pressing left or right by accident can be common. This resets the playlist to the top

  • MIST/STEAM/STEAMDECK: Don’t expose Black Frame Insertion (BFI) if we are running on a Steam Deck

  • NETWORKING/WINDOWS: Disable poll support for MSVC 2010 and earlier. WSAPoll is not supported on Windows XP and earlier.

  • SAVESTATES/NOTIFICATIONS: Add delay to savestate notifications, so that GPU savestate screenshots stay untouched

  • SAVESTATES/SCREENSHOTS: Avoid ‘video_gpu_screenshot’ with savestates. Allow GPU screenshots with savestates only when there is no other way of getting a screenshot.

  • SCREENSHOTS/VULKAN: Unload screenshot widget texture early. Fixes Vulkan crash when closing content while a screenshot widget is still on-screen

  • SCREENSHOTS/VULKAN: Fix screenshot widget crash when ticker animating

  • WAYLAND: Set correct app ID
