Changes in this release:
Reverted changes by shuffle2's (gb_apu_state warning cleanup) as i(squall) prefer working sound over a clean build log.
Added VC2010 project files
Enabled SSE/Instrinsic optimisations in VC2010 project file (safer to do than in 2008) (VS2008 builds are still built without code gen optimisations)

Do older saves work with this release?

savestates?

for the most part yes, some very old GB states from 1.7 will fail, but this is mostly game dependent.

did you download it from the official site? (microsoft).
On a side note: it's directx9 you need

why does this emulator plays the game at around 330%
is there a way to slow it down to normal speed?

cuz your computer is too fast. get a slower computer

seriously though go to Options->Speed and throttle to 100%

hmmm it gives me a error when playing a game xaudio2 failed to initialize
and the speed is still a 300-400%...
no sound too.
im having problems after problems x.x

Isn't it supposed to be options ->speed and throttle to no throttle?
Because it's like that with me and i always have 100% gamespeed.

no.
thats not what throttle is for, infact im going to disable it in future builds until its function has been properly clarified/fixed.

Vsync + Audio Limit.

as per the readme, do not enable audio limit + auto frame skipping as theres a timing issue that occurs then.

then you definitely did not install DirectX properly.

What use is the throttle actually? It just speeds up gameplay now and then which is actually a bit annoying.

its supposed to be an artificial cap afaik, though it just rarely works in this way.

the behavior is going to get changed to being a speed throttle for turbo.

Quick question, would you recommend this build/version in place of the current build/version I have which is VBA-M (SVN947)?

yes

I figured as much, just wanted to make sure is all.

Just to confirm:
I'm a Win 7 user, having the same problem with Directx.
So, downloading and installing Directx (June 2010) fix the problem?

That's why i'm on working (skipping ), and this pc is a XP, so testing right now is a bit dificult...

Ps: Sorry for any wrong word, English isn't my natural language.

yes, any directx related issues can be resolved by installing that latest bimonthly(not so much bimonthly anymore) redistributable.
