Lunar Magic Version 2.52 Released! September 30, 2017 This release of Lunar Magic fixes an issue from 2.50 where SA-1/SFX ROMs upgraded from a previous version of LM could use the wrong "Act as" settings during gameplay.  Lunar Magic Version 2.51 Released! September 25, 2017 This release of Lunar Magic just fixes a crash bug that appeared in version 2.50 with the 8x8 tile selector of the Map16 editor.  Lunar Magic Version 2.50 Released! September 24, 2017 This release of Lunar Magic has double the space for FG and BG Map16 (meant for large scale collaborations), 16x the number of secondary exits, the ability to resize objects from top/left and related corners for most objects that support it, and a few other additions and fixes. See the "What's New" section of the help file for more info. Do note that if you use a third party block tool type program, you shouldn't use the new FG tiles (0x4000-0x7FFF) in LM until your program has been updated to deal with the new max.  Zcompress Version 1.20 Released! June 25, 2017 This release of Zcompress adds support for the Japanese version of the game.  Lunar Compress Version 1.81 Released! May 16, 2017 This release of Lunar Compress fixes a crash bug that could occur when decompressing from a RAM file. Most formats would not have triggered it, but LC_LZ12 (Gradius 3) definitely could.  Lunar Magic Version 2.43 Released! December 25, 2016 This release of Lunar Magic just has a few minor tweaks, though it also adds the ability to copy the color of any pixel under the mouse to the clipboard in the palette editors. Check the "What's New" section of the help file for more info. Merry Christmas!  Lunar Magic Version 2.42 Released! February 9, 2016 This is another minor release of Lunar Magic that fixes a crash issue from 2.40 that could occur under certain circumstances and has a few other adjustments. The "What's New" section of the help file has the details.  Lunar Magic Version 2.41 Released! December 25, 2015 This is a minor release of Lunar Magic that has a few tweaks and additions. There is one notable fix however, as sprites were not triggering custom block ASM when touched from the side in layer 2 levels on layer 2 (and it seems it's been that way forever). Check the "What's New" section of the help file for details. Merry Christmas!  ZSNES 1.51 FuSoYa-8MB_R2 Released! December 25, 2015 This custom build of ZSNES just backports a couple of security fixes to the 8MB build of ZSNES I did a few years ago.  Zcompress Version 1.10 Released! December 25, 2015 This release of Zcompress adds a 64 bit build of the program, along with a few other minor tweaks. Check the update list in the readme file for more details.  Lunar Magic Version 2.40 Released! September 24, 2015 This release of Lunar Magic adds support for ExAnimation on the overworld, more overworld exit path indexes, .palmask files to specify which colors in the palette should be imported into your level, more zoom levels, 8x8 tile fill in the overworld editor, improved Z-order related commands in the level editor, and other small changes and features. Check the "What's New" section of the help file for the full list. Note that this version also adds an option that scans the user area of the ROM for nested RATs on Full Restore Point creation. This can sometimes help detect corruption caused by third party tools and patches soon after it happens, rather than having it go unnoticed for long periods of time. If you'd rather not get this notification, you can turn it off in the restore options. By the way, today is the 15th anniversary of the day Lunar Magic was first released! It also happens to be the 40th release of Lunar Magic. Hard to believe it's been so long, but I'm pretty happy with how the program has turned out over that time. Anyway, have fun!  Lunar Compress Version 1.80 Released! February 9, 2015 This release of Lunar Compress adds a new format (LC_LZ19) used in Earthbound, Kirby Super Star, and Kirby's Adventure (NES).

January 1, 2015 This is a minor release of Lunar Magic to fix an issue with locking that appeared in 2.30. Anyway, merry Christmas and happy new year!
