Benben v0.6.0, Now in Hard Feature Freeze

After giving it some thought, and evaluating my (deteriorating) mental health (^_^;), I’ve decided it’s time to put Benben v0.6.0 in a hard feature freeze. So, no new features will be introduced until after v0.6.0 is released; it’s all bug fixing and documentation from here on out. And probably a new theme or two.

All of the features that I mentioned last time are still in-place and are working. The only things that I’ve decided to axe for v0.6.0 are the Yamaha YMF278b (OPL4) and YMF271 (OPX) chips for VGMs. Those will be introduced in v0.7.0.

There’s already been a number of fixes since my last post, as well as some minor memory optimizations. Notably, rendering QOA and WavPack to PCM now works.

As usual, updated development AppImages are available on the releases page.

Benben v0.6.0 is going to kick ass ^_^
