    SIG  Great app. I seem to be having problems with the Williams Arcade Classics ROM's. Defender and Defender II. Works fine but the sound crackles. Doesn't bother me too much, but I'd love it if I could get it working properly. PB 1GHZ, 17" Tiger with 1GB RAM. Most of the other ROMs in my complete collection work fine. A bit of video issue, but I'm wondering if the sound settings are at fault (they're set to default).

    I know Defender online via shockwave won't work on OS X. I'm not sure if it'll work on OS 9. I'm wondering if these would require OS 9 running.

    Thanks for any information in advance.

    AET  Does anyone else have a hard time configuring a controller in Tiger? I have a USB Logitech Precision. When clicking on the key in order to configure it, it starts blinking on the screen as if sporadically being held down.

    ANONYMOUS  Me too... in fact, that's one of the games I couldn't play with the original SNES9X. This "custom" version let me play it -- as well as the rest of the Megaman X series, Starfox, Stunt Race FX, more I'm forgetting... must be FX chip support...? I find that this emulator runs more ROMs than the original, anyway. Very solid, and the bonus features are more than just little extras. It's the best SNES emulator for Mac OS X, period.

    APHOTIC_HEX  Hi, Yeah. there was a problem, as I recall. I tried this rom out a few years back and it doesn't let you get past the menu or something? anyway, the way around it, is to use another snes emulator (i think i used silhoette(sp)? and freeze state. but yeah since its poor, import the freeze into snes9x. unless that was a dream :/ pretty sure it wasn't. hope that helps :}

    ANONYMOUS  Much faster than 1.42; I now get a rock solid 60fps framerate at all times, no matter what game.

    ANONYMOUS  Vortex now works. :-)

    Starfox 2 beta now works better (sound emulation must be off).

    Super Air Diver now works better.

    Starfox 2 early beta still does not work.

    Turning off graphic layers no longer seems to work. :-(

    Can't figure out how to set the SNES mouse (for Mario Paint), can anyone help?
