A major update of A/NES CGFX has been released. This time it include NSF-support(!) and rewritten DPCM code (very accurate). Just in time for christmas, check out this new beta of A/NES CGFX. It comes with a new interface for playing NSF's (and this one even works on P96 systems). Tons of NSF's can be found at http://www.zophar.net/nsf/. Oliver Achten, the new member of the A/NES CGFX team, has rewritten the DPCM sound channel, and it's now very accurate (compared to previous versions). A/NES CGFX v1.30 beta 1 can be found at: http://hem.passagen.se/anescgfx/?noframe

Haven't been able to try it out yet (my monitor has issued me a death threat recently), but I'm happy to see that work goes on at at least an IBrowse pace. =)
Good to see NSF support, but would it be possible to make a Deli/Eagle player as well, so it could be integrated with all my other chip tunes?

It doesn't run on my system. Crashes nicely requiring reboot.

It works bad on mine too (sprites are drawn but not deleted and background
layers are invisible) A1200, latest CGX, 32Mb RAM, Os3.5bb2, previous one
worked btw.

Known problems with A/NES CGFX is compability problems with P96 systems (however the NSF player do work with P96). The graphics problems described sounds like a game that is trying to do both horisontal/vertical scrolling at the same time, else it could be the result of a not entirely supported mapper. The scrolling bugs are being worked on however... It's not really that easy making a 100% compatible graphics engine when I want it to run at an acceptable framerate even on slower CPU's, like my 68040/25. :-)

It may be a good idea to add specific P96 support... it doesn't require lots of modifications.

The problem right now is that it's a standard OS-call that is causing crashes on P96 equipped systems (BltBitmap() for the one who's interested), however we're investigating this currently...

Morgan,
What if BltBitmap() was patched using another util/patch? Would that improve things to the point of making it useable on p96-based systems? What about the built-in (albeit REALLY out of date) CGFX emulation within p96?
Y'know, it's times like this I wish I'd cobbled my S-S to be a dual-RTG system. ;)

In reply to Comment 7 (TanZyr):
At the moment we really don't have a clue why BltBitmap() is crashing on P96-systems since it's a (very) standard OS-call, and all parameters that are passed to it are 100% valid. Probably something else in the code somewhere that the P96-software doesn't like.
Anyway, may I suggest that bugreports, ideas etc. are discussed in the official A/NES forum instead (hem.passagen.se/anescgfx/ click the forum-link).

I've talked to one of the guys behind the P96 software yes.. However no real progress yet sadly.
