This is great!

Though, since I'm new to using the emulator, can someone tell me if transferring savegames is possible when updating? Will just replacing the boot.dol be enough? (I'm using the HBC and the emu on a SD card.)

Edit: Well, I couldn't test that method, as when I select a ROM now, it says "Unknown File Type!" I guess this is a bug introduced in this new version, or am I doing something wrong?

Edit 2: Okay, so it's a bug with the new release, it only recognises .SMC roms now, and not .SFC roms anymore. You can simply rename the roms to *.SMC and it works fine.

Does this improve the mouse support???

I think they would have mentioned if they had changed something significant like that, so I'm guessing no, but I'll try it out and see.

Works great from my sd card.... unfortunetly this new version seems to have broken the support for my usb hd so I've gone back to the previous version seeing as that worked fine.

No, mouse support still is the same.
