Voici les informations depuis la dernière version d’ares:
This is an emergency hotfix release for macOS and Linux users that fixes the following issues
N64, PS1 and 32X emulation crashes on Intel macs running macOS versions newer than Catalina. Unfortunately this slipped through the net because it was functional on Catalina, which I have, and the latest macOS on M1, which Rasky has.
For Linux users, some Audio/Video/Input driver options were missing, due to broken dependency resolution.
Additionally, one minor emulation fix did get merged: the Copyright screen on Perfect Dark now renders using MAME RDP. (This is not yet fixed when using Parallel-RDP, as we are still working on getting it fixed upstream)
macOS users on Apple Silicon/ARM64 platforms, and Windows users can safely skip this update if they wish to do so.
