This is the new 2.6 core for the SNES Myth cart. The current menu (0.55) doesn't yet make use of any features in the 2.6 core. ....or at least it wasn't supposed to
I realized after I had released the 0.55 menu that I had forgot to remove some code, so VGZ playback will currently only work if you have the new core. I'll fix that in the next menu. Nothing else should be affected.
What's new in 2.6
The short story:
It allows for slightly better Inflate (unzip) performance, which can be used for improving loading times of zipped ROMs and VGZ files.
The long story:
Writing 8-bit data to the Myth's PSRAM doesn't work the same as for the SNES's own WorkRAM. ............................
