Un rapport des améliorations avec illustrations, est visible ici.
Un tutorial est disponible ici et un pack de shaders là .
Et si vous voulez davantage d’effets graphiques, un site expliquant comment customiser l’émulateur avec Reshade et autre shaders, est disponible ici.
NB: Notez que même si la version 64 bits peut permettre un gain de vitesse dans certains jeux, elle n’est pas à considérer comme stable.
