Releases: agg23/openfpga-pcengine
Minor Fixes and 1.0.0 Promotion
It's finally time to promote the PC Engine core to its 1.0.0 release. The core has proven to be very stable since 0.3.0, and can be considered complete.
This release also brings about some small improvements from the upstream MiSTer repository.
Installation instructions
Easy Mode
I highly recommend the updater tools by @mattpannella, @RetroDriven, and @neil-morrison44. Choose one of the following updaters:
- Pocket Updater - Windows only
- Pocket Sync - Cross platform
- Pocket Updater Utility - Cross platform, command line only
Any of these will allow you to automatically download and install openFPGA cores onto your Analogue Pocket. Go donate to the creators if you can
Manual Mode
Visit Releases and download the latest version of the core by clicking on the file named agg23....zip
.
To install the core, copy the Assets
, Cores
, and Platform
folders over to the root of your SD card. Please note that Finder on macOS automatically replaces folders, rather than merging them like Windows does, so you have to manually merge the folders.

Changelog
- feat (#17): Support SGX via extensions
Turbo and video improvements
Adds support for turbo buttons (the X and Y buttons by default) with configurable speed just like the real controller, a raw RGB color palette option, rewritten video handling, and several other fixes.
Video should now be always centered on the screen, regardless of the games' resolution. If you find an example where this is not the case, please let me know.

Changelog
Initial Release and Minor Fixes
Initial release of the PC Engine core for Analogue Pocket.
Supports four players via the Dock, saves, multiple video resolutions, video options, and more.
Please note that SuperGrafx and CD games are not currently supported, due to needing fixes/feature support in the firmware. They will be added in a future update.
Huge thanks to the original developers of this project. Without the hard work of Gregory Estrade, @srg320, and @greyrogue, this project wouldn't exist. Donate to them if you can.
