Product Description:

Generator is a Sega Genesis/Megadrive emulator for the Macintosh. Generator features fairly good compatibility with Genesis software. It also supports FM sound (music in most games). Generator can open ROMs compressed with Gzip without expanding them first. In addition, it can open both .SMD and .BIN formats.

What's new in this version:

  • Audio recording no longer stops when emulator is switched to background, provided that the option to keep emulating in background is on. Recording will still stop if the emulator does.
  • Brushed metal mode is now off by default on new installs, as well as existing installs where users press the Default button.
  • Fixed an obscure endian bug that resulted in odd window sizes when an emulator preferences file was moved between PowerPC and Intel.
  • Fixed several minor visual glitches in the Preferences dialog box.
  • Modified the behaviour of the Quick Freeze function, so that the last ten quick freezes for each game are kept in ~/Library/Application Support/Bannister/(emulator name)/Saved States. You can restore these at any time using the Defrost menu command. Added code to stop the quick freeze and quick defrost keys from being repeated. Thanks to David McCabe for the suggestion.
  • Replaced custom about box with standard HIAboutBox. Removed option to pause execution when about box is open.

WHY do you continue to post replies that are FOUR YEARS OLD when this emulator has obviously been updated to run on Tiger? Comments that old no longer have much credence.
