Delta 1.3 Release Candidate - Sega Genesis support
Added 2021-03-23 20:15:55 +0000 UTCIt's been a long time coming, but I'm proud to announce Delta 1.3 Release Candidate is now available 🥳 This is by far the biggest update to Delta yet; Delta 1.3 will finally bring support for playing DS games to everyone, in addition to a bunch of other features, improvements, and bug fixes. This release candidate (+ the previous beta released a few weeks ago) focuses on polishing up all the remaining rough edges, as well as laying the foundation for the next Delta console: Sega Genesis 🎉
WHAT'S NEW
👾 Initial Sega Genesis support. Now that Nintendo DS support is just about finished, it's time to begin working on the next console! Based on Genesis Plus GX, Delta's Genesis core supports save states and fast forwarding (cheats will come later), and includes a beautiful controller skin designed by Chris Rittenhouse in the meantime while we continue to work on the official Genesis skin.
🎮 Updated DS controller skin with bigger buttons. We've redesigned the DS skin so that the D-Pad and ABYX buttons are now the same size as Delta's other skins, rather than being slightly smaller. This should make them much easier to press, and also reduce the number of accidental button presses.
🖼 Support for custom game artwork with transparent backgrounds. Previously, Delta would ignore the alpha channel when choosing custom game artwork, which meant any transparency in the image would appear black. Now, artwork with transparency will display as expected, allowing you to use other shapes for game artwork besides just squares and rectangles (including rounded corners!).
🔄 Fixes some erroneous "Sync Failed" alerts. Sometimes Delta will display a "Sync Failed" alert even when nothing actually went wrong when syncing. I'm still investigating the underlying issue, but this update should at least fix some situations where that might occur.
⏰ Fixes broken Real Time Clock for some GBA games. A much requested bug fix, Delta now supports the GBA Real Time Clock (RTC) for all games — including Pokémon hacks.
Assuming everything goes well, I plan to release the final 1.3 update to everyone in the next couple of weeks! However, there are some features that will remain limited to beta versions for now:
• Sega Genesis support
• DSi support (still some kinks I need to work out before it's ready for public release)
• DeSmuME core (deprecated, but keeping it in the beta so people who used it previously can continue using their save states)
As always, thank you for all your feedback regarding Delta 1.3! This update would not be nearly as polished without all the bug reports I've received, and I'm beyond excited to finally release it so everyone can relive their favorite DS games again 😄

2021-07-28 00:47:56 +0000 UTCWhere’s the download? I have a paid dev account and prefer to sideload stuff myself with Impactor.

2021-07-23 07:54:41 +0000 UTCReading this gave me a stroke. Delta works flawless for my jailbroken device and never needs to be signed with AltStore.
2021-07-09 07:52:51 +0000 UTCFull screen iPad support

2021-06-13 04:52:15 +0000 UTCI don't think that AltServer is working on the new mail update :/ (14.0)

2021-06-10 17:28:16 +0000 UTCAny update for ios 15?
2021-06-10 04:37:45 +0000 UTCI've just unlocked the beta, but i don't understand what good is it for if you maximum downloads are 3 on altstore?
2021-06-05 08:21:11 +0000 UTCHi, so I currently use delta through TutuAppvip is there a way for me to access beta from there or do I have to have altstore?

2021-05-25 12:44:32 +0000 UTCNice 😄😌
2021-05-18 08:40:35 +0000 UTCHi sir. I’m trying to export a shave from delta 1.3rc1 to delta 1.3 .I did the savefield but in delta 1.3, when I pulse import save and select the savefield, nothing happens. It is from nintendo ds.
2021-05-16 13:17:52 +0000 UTCDid you link the two accounts from the Alt Store app?

2021-05-11 00:29:23 +0000 UTCDo you know why the saves exported from ds games dont work with openemu on mac?
2021-04-24 17:19:20 +0000 UTCI have bought Patreon but Delta Beta does not show up for me

2021-04-07 12:10:11 +0000 UTCFor those having issues installing AltStore beta, here is how I did it: install the AltServer beta via the download link on this post, then install AltStore beta through that.
2021-04-01 21:15:40 +0000 UTCI’m having the same issue as Jesus gold, linked Patreon in AltStore but no option to download betas
2021-04-01 18:37:53 +0000 UTCI linked my patreon in altstore but didn’t get access to delta beta or beta altstore. Please help
2021-04-01 18:12:53 +0000 UTCNot sure how to update to the release candidate, it's not showing up in my AltStore — possibly connected to not being able to update to the latest AltStore: under My Apps, it still says 12 Feb 2020 as the date for the updates, but tapping on 'Update' doesn't actually update anything.
2021-04-01 16:23:16 +0000 UTCHey I just became a patron and can’t download Nintendo ds roms. Can somebody please help
2021-03-31 07:09:45 +0000 UTCThis is a feature I would love to see

2021-03-28 10:18:30 +0000 UTCBasically what I was wondering is if you or anyone else has come up with a way using the cloud save system to play a game with delta, then save and pick up on a PC later with something like project64 ?
2021-03-26 14:19:22 +0000 UTChey Riley I had a question about cross platform. I know that save states can't be used on other emulators but its my understanding the SRAM files can work anywhere since they're written by the game itself.
2021-03-26 14:18:31 +0000 UTCIs fast forward fixed for DS any chance?
2021-03-24 03:46:45 +0000 UTCWhere can we find the extra files needed to use dsmelon?
2021-03-24 00:01:20 +0000 UTCIs there anyway to make the buttons bigger in the Dolphinios app
2021-03-23 21:57:00 +0000 UTCLets goooo
2021-03-23 20:18:44 +0000 UTCIs there a work around for DolphiniOS yet? For iOS 14.4?
