A new version of RxNES has been released, with speed increases and constant improvements and features.
RxNES is a nes emulator based on mynes, it uses the unity engine, which allows graphic mods, 2D and 3D, as well as sound and music mods.
Its still very much wip, but includes a sample mod for super mario bros::
RxNES has updated to v3.021. This release is an important update, and fixes the issue of generating gigs of data, due to constantly making new textures, where as now it now replaces existing textures, so should be reduced to a more manageable 500meg of ram.
This release also fixes issues to general emulation script RxEnhance.cs, which was getting confused in some rom emulation.
Also a call out to anyone who'd like to help with this project:
As you should know the main Enhancement script RxEnhance.cs is editable in a text/c# editor, and hopefully a user can optimize / improve it further and share with everyone else.
The sprites are rendered on their own layers, 1 layer for each of 4 screen palettes.
they are then cropped out for dumping.
This is the wrong approach, and sprites should be read from the cartridge and not from the screen; (but I spent weeks coding it this way). Problems arise when 2 sprites overlap each other and they dump combined and overlapping (Only if they use the same of 4 palettes).
Some sprites dumped are duplicates yet have different file names, cropping is over-cropped.
I dunno, I did my best effort on everything but I was really hoping for help from the community.
Lots of good things! The emu has tons going for it!
I just wanted to mention the bugs I would like to see fixed by users as I don't have a current interest in fixing them ('cause it doesn't run full speed).
Important to remember is that replacement graphics can be bigger than their original screen space, so the over-cropping issue shouldn't even matter if ppl are replacing the graphics with new ones anyway. The issue that remains is the corrupt sprites, if a sprite dumps at the same time as the nes is rendering it, it will be half and half of a frame and the frame before. This would cause the replacement sprite not to be used and the corrupted / incomplete sprite to flicker on.
Also, a good point, is that any .png can be replaced with a .obj 3d model. (For sprites and BG Tiles) Just make the .png trasparent and name the .obj the same hash fliename as the .png. The exact way it works is in the code and i'm just still waking up this morning.
I guess this is a call out to Unity3d coders to have a look at the RxEnhance.cs script and see if they can improve it. If you could with the release of this version, write up a call to coders to have a look and fix up the main script. (It compiles at Runtime :) )

RxNES has released yet another update, this one is quite a big update:
- MAJOR UPDATE!!
- Added "Combined Sprites"!! - Press the "Pause" key on your keyboard. Click the sprites you want to be dumped/recognized/replaced as
ONE larger .png. When you click them, they will turn green to indicate they will be dumped. When you have all the little sprite tiles
selected that you want combined, Press "Spacebar"! A preview of the larger sprite you just dumped will be displayed in the center of
the screen until you click the mouse again. The Large Combined Texture will be dumped to that games "~MyPackage-" folder along with
a .cfg file. This new graphic RELIES on the .cfg so keep them together. Any editing in the cfg is unnessesary, however I guess you can
edit the physical size of the graphic in the game by editing its Width / Height values in there..
Aside from that, you shouldn't be editing anything in the .cfg. You can Rename the .cfg and .png to whatever you like, but make certain
they match each other. You can increase the resolution of the .png up to 4096x4096 but that 1 graphic would probably not fit your monitor
resolution. While selecting tiles to dump as one, right clicking clears everything selected.
Sorry I just got all this working smooth after 3 days of solid programming, so there is no example supplied. I hope forum mod lyonhrt
can make up an example to be released in the next update. :) THX lyonhrt!
- Large Combined Sprites cannot be replaced with 3D Models yet in this version, but will be in the next short while.
i will certainly be looking at starting a pack for this emulator this weekend, so check the rxnes forums for exclusive first look, and of course check out my other work on http://www.emutalk.net/
http://www.rxnes.com/ has had a nice big update today, with updates progressing daily
Here's whats new from the readme
- Fixed : RxNES now dumps tiles at their original resolution. (8x8 or 8x16 pixels.)
Previously for your convienence 8x8 tiles were upscaled to 4x at 32x32. This ment you could open them in an image editor and add sub-pixels
easily. It also made them easier to see in Windows Explorer and Image Preview. However.. This lost the ability to interpolate or upscale
the tiles with a batch image scaler, such as ReShade. Now not only are the exported tiles smaller (1/4 file size I guess), they can
for example be added to Recording files and you won't need to have played the game with tile dumping on, to the game point in the Recording
to be able to watch it. This will be added soon in a coming update. I am not sure if I should package the tiles with the recording,
upload/download them from the server, or both. I will probably go with both just to be sure the Recordings are playable everywhere, and a
known tile database is availiable for those who want to work on tiles they haven't reached yet in-game. Exported tiles are now only 128 bytes
each! (@ 8x8). Or, 8 or 9 tiles per KB! So I will be uploading whichever are missing from the server to a central database collection of all
the tiles everyone has dumped after logging in. The "Box Boy" collection is a total of 46 KB at this point on my computer.
This .txt document is around 10 KB (or 76 tiles). An ancient 8 inch floppy disk from the 1980's holds 800 KB. So you will also be able to
store your dumped .png collections on 8 inch Floppy :) and upload/download bandwidth should not be any issue.
- Fixed : No Keyboard Control without any Wiimotes. ( Problem was a misplaced } ).
- Added : New Example 3D Model in the Enhancements folder!
Created a perfect 1 tile example 3D model. Spent hours re-programming it's alignment to be sub-pixel perfect.
Please use this as THE template for making 3D models! "DEMOModel" included in .max, .blend, and .obj.
If you use 3DS Max use the .max file, not the .obj. The .max has non-default scene scale and is setup to scale properly.
Also, If using 3DS Max, Export to .obj with Scale = 0.1, Flip Y/Z Axis (Poser like) turned ON (Defaults to OFF!).
- Still Broken? : Playback of Recordings. (Code hasn't been altered yet to handle NEW Standard / Default 2D Tile.)
- Added : 2-Player Wiimote Controls! ( Autodetects 2 Wiimotes [Player 1 & 2] Bluetooth) If you have only 1 Wiimote, Player 2 uses Keyboard.
Hold 1 & 2 on wiimote and pair in windows bluetooth pairing, it will be autodetected.
- Fixed Z,X to be B,A instead of A,B.
- Added : Wiimote Controls! ( Autodetects 1 Wiimote [Player 1] Bluetooth) Up to 4 Players coming soon, I only have 1 wiimote ATM.
Hold 1 & 2 on wiimote and pair in windows bluetooth pairing, it will be autodetected. (On next start.)
- Fixed Z,X to be B,A instead of A,B.
Nice to have that support built in for wiimotes, and continues to expand on its features.
http://www.rxnes.com/ has posted an update on its customisable emulator with a fix now at version 1.53
- Fixed # Key not running Box Art Downloader. Changed it to the 3 Key for now.
- Uncommented code for 3D Models in Recording Playback. The bug was elsewhere. (I think.)
- Rom Browser with Box Art! Toggles with "Page Up" & "Page Down". Arrow Keys to select your Rom.
- Box Art Batch Downloader. Hold "Shift" and press #. (Can take 10 Seconds to 20 Minutes depending on how many Roms / what art is missing.)
Currently the Server has Art for 600+ Games! (Games are mostly Auto-detected, regardless of file name.)
- No 3D models in Replay Recordings (Needs further testing and tweaking...)
Some days i like to check out whats new in the emulation world, and i just happen to come across this little gem, called RxNES, which is a NES emulator, but this time with a little twist, it has customization.
When the NES draws the original graphics,
check if there are modern graphics which can be put in their place!
RxNES is basically 80 lines of code added to an Open Source NES Emulator within the Unity3D Engine. Unity3D is not required, you can upgrade games with the Standalone Build.
The added code "hashes" the content of the on-screen "Tiles" and comes up with a name for each tile, it then checks a special "Enhancemennts" folder to see if a new 3D Model (.OBJ) and or Texture are availiable to render on top of the old one.
Rom UI: Now there is a "preview" window that shows the rom image preview. This is only available in window 2x and above. Everytime you close a rom the last image is captured and is used as the preview. Of course this works only if you load the rom from the "ROMS Library".
NMI: Changed NMI behavior. Games like 1942 run well.
APU: There was a problem in emulated sound that games like 1942 kept sounding. Fixed
Mappers: Added mapper #65: Daiku no Gen San 2, Kaiketsu Yanchamaru and Spartan X 2 among others.
Mappers: Added mapper #11: Crystal Mines, Metal Fighter, etc. Beware that this mapper has bus conflicts, so some games may behave bad or don't load at all.
Mappers: Added mapper #64: Klax, Skull and Crossbones, Shinobi, etc.
Mappers: Added mapper #71: The Fantastic Adventures of Dizzy, Bee 52. It doesn't work perfect by now, but at least works.
Rom Library Gui: Small change taht it shows the mapper number for the unsupported mapper instead of "------".
Fixed serious bugs in save states when saved to disk.
A new version of yanese (Yet Another NES Emulator) today now to version 0.77
Chages are:
Video: Added 4:3 aspect ratio support in full screen mode. You can change of common 3 resolution you want to be displayed. This is more likely playing in a real TV.
App video crash: I tested the emu in some basic GPUs like Intel ones. It was sometimes crashing in this GPUs. I discovered that changing some compiler settings was the error.
APU: Fixed Triangle Channel problem that some games didn't sound fine.
SOUND: Added a "low pass filter" in sound generation. It sounds "better" not "too much better", but as i said a "little better".
SOUND: Setting volume too high sometimes, in some games caused the sound to cut off.
Improved some code.
yanese Yet Another NES Emulator, has released another version today of its emulator with the following changes:
APU: There was an error in APU generating IRQs that didn't let to play some roms like "Alien III". It was fixed and now Blargg's "Clock Jitter" test pass.
Memory Leaks: Fixed a seriuos bug that somethimes left memory leaks.
Error while quitting: Sometimes when the emu was closed the app crashed. It's fixed.
Improved some code.
A new build of HDNes has been released. The nes emulator that allows replacement of tiles up to 4x the resolution.

1. Updated to SDL2, input settings are incompatible with previous version so please configure input again
2. Fixed some clicking noise in the triangle channel
3. Fixed an overflow bug when filling sound buffer
puNES (ex Fnes) is an emulator under development that works on Linux32/64 and Windows32. It needs of SDL library to run.
Here's relase info for latest version:
I continued to work hard on the synchronization between CPU/PPU and CPU/APU to make it more accurate. Now "Micro Machines (Camerica) [!]. nes" works without any graphical glitches also "Huge Insect (Sachen) [!].nes" finally works perfectly (viewtopic.php?f=3&t=465). Considering that the changes affecting the core of the emulator, I have tested many roms (tests and games) and it seems that everything is running smoothly, but if someone were to find some roms that gives problems with this release, please contact me. Thanks to x0000 for the help on the front of the CPU/APU.
Fixed some bugs in the handling of compressed files with the game genie active (thx Chad).

Chere's changelog for latest builds:
*** 0.048 (6/5/2012) ***
You can now change all options without having to restart the emulator. Also changed the set of values used for the VRC7 registers and did some code cleanups in various places. Significant rewrite is needed to improve basic timing accuracy some time soon.
*** 0.047 (5/12/2012) ***
VRC7 channel volumes and modulation are correct now. Still not quite like the real thing because envelopes are based off info from the data sheet and not the actual implementation. (Plus, no one has ever read the presets for the built in instruments from the VRC7; I've tested several sets of approximations.)

Bug Fixes.
MoarNES is an emulator for the classic Nintendo Entertainment System video game console. It is relatively new, and currently still in alpha. It is being continuously worked on an improved with the goal of being among the best NES emulators available. Is it there yet? Not quite, but it's a very useable and fairly compatible emulator still at this point. It is written from scratch in C, with no code taken from existing NES emulators.
Since there's no change-log, here is what author said about alpha release
Although a fairly basic emulator right now, I am working on implementing several major new features soon. For example, netplay support and re-recording for tool-assisted speed run creation.
I am also looking into the possibility of an extended debugger, an integrated assembler, and a tile editor to assist in developing homebrew NES software.
puNES (ex Fnes) is an emulator under development that works on Linux32/64 and Windows32. It needs of SDL library to run.
Here's changelog for latest three versions:

0.49
- Added emulation of Turbo A and Turbo B on Standard Controller.
- The Zapper coordinates, in some circumstances, could be read wrong, fixed.
0.48
- More accurate Zapper emulation (thx tepples). Right button of mouse emulates the pointing of the Zapper outside the TV screen. So, to make a shoot offscreen, you must press the left mouse button while holding down the right.
- Added Bilinear filter.
- Rearranged the menu filter (Hint: reselect the desired filter and then save the configuration).
- Fixed many bugs in opengl codes (now, on fullscreen, aspect ratio is maintained properly).

HalfNES v0.036 is released. HalfNES is an open-source emulator for the Nintendo Entertainment System, written in Java. Currently, it only runs as a standalone Java SE application.
Current Features:
-Now cropping off the top and bottom 8 pixels of the video output, since these are
not visible on most TVs and a lot of games render garbage on those lines.
-Added volume slider to options dialog (and rewrote the sound output code as well.)
-Fixed a lot of sound bugs. Crystalis, Zombie Nation, A Boy And His Blob etc. all sound right now.
-Fixed Twin Cobra
HalfNES v0.036 Changelog:
-Added Mapper 9 (Punch-Out!!)
-Fixed Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (leftover bug from last PPU rewrite)
-Fixed Jurassic Park (same problem as Twin Cobra, changed the code so both worked)
-Increased audio volume
-Added greyscale and color emphasis to PPU
(Noah's Ark is maybe the only game this is visible in)
-Fixed off-by-one error causing scanline 261 to be run twice
(fixed some timing issues, maybe caused a few more)
-Completely changed the way the PPU renders sprites - broke some games (Guardian Legend and
some Codemasters games that never looked right anyway) but fixed screen shaking and
single scanline glitches in a LOT of games.
-Also, sprite flicker is back from the old days.

Fceux SVN r2206 is released. FCEUX is a cross platform, NTSC and PAL Famicom/NES emulator that is an evolution of the original FCE Ultra emulator. Over time FCE Ultra had separated into many separate branches. The concept behind FCEUX is to merge elements from FCE Ultra, FCEU rerecording, FCEUXD, FCEUXDSP, and FCEU-mm into a single branch of FCEU. As the X implies, it is an all-encompassing FCEU emulator that gives the best of all worlds for the general player, the ROM-hacking community, and the Tool-Assisted Speedrun Community.
Fceux SVN changelog:
r2206
win32: poll hotkeys while no rom is loaded
