ZSNES is a Super Nintendo Entertainment System emulator written entirely in assembly and C. Using cutting edge SNES emulation, ZSNES is easily comparable to other leading SNES emulators, such as Snes9x, SNEeSe, and Super Sleuth.

Special thanks to the Snes9x team for all of their help and also for the excellent SNES emulator they have developed. We wish them the very best of luck!

The ZSNES development team, including all developers and contributers, is in no way responsible for any damage caused by the use of this software. Please read the license for more details. In addition, ZSNES may not be distributed with ROM images.

• - 200MHz processor (500MHz recommended)
• - 32MB of RAM (64MB recommended; more if SDL is compiled to use X)
• - 3D graphics accelerator required (nVidia GeForce 2 or equivalent recommended)
• - SDL v1.20 or higher required

• - You can use both keyboard and joystick for player 1 or 2 with some configuration adjustments. Refer to the FAQ for details.
• - Several special chip emulation routines have unknown bugs to them.
• - SuperFX can be slow because it is an extra 10/20mhz CPU that has to be emulated as well as the SNES emulation.
• - Screen Snapshot, Snapshot Format, and FPS Counter are available through a menu by pressing F1 during emulation.
• - Screen Snapshot can save in PCX format (8bit color), bitmap format (65536 colors), or PNG format (32bit ARGB color).
• - FPS Counter currently only works when auto frame rate is on.
• - To use the cheat function, be sure to have the ROM which you want to patch loaded already.
• - If the cheat codes do not work, chances are that you are either using a different version of the ROM that was originally used to create them or the codes are converted incorrectly from other code formats.
• - There are still many bugs left in ZSNES, so don't expect it to run all your favorite games.
• - SNES Mouse support is still missing some features, such as speed settings.
• - Pressing the Fast Forward key is equivalent to running ZSNES using -f 9.
• - If ZSNES doesn't work for you, then don't use it. Use Snes9x, SNEeSe, or Super Sleuth instead! In fact, even if you use ZSNES, use those emulators too!

• Here are the default keys while running the emulator. They can be changed through the GUI, except for F1 and Esc:
• Disable Backgrounds 1, 2, 3, and 4 -- 1, 2, 3, 4
• Disable Sprites -- 5
• Enable All Backgrounds and Sprites -- 6
• Enable SNES Mouse or Super Scope -- 7
• Enable New Graphics Engine -- 8
• Disable Windowing -- 9
• Disable Offset Mode -- 0
• Fast Forward Key -- ~
• F1 Menu -- F1
• Save State -- F2
• Switch State -- F3
• Load State -- F4
• Disable Sound Channel -- F5 - F12
• Quit -- Esc

• Here are the default keys for the game play (unless modified through the GUI):
• Player 1:
  • Directions Up, Down, Left, and Right -- Cursor Keys
  • Buttons A, B, X, and Y -- Keys X, Z, S, and A
  • Buttons L and R -- Keys D and C
  • Buttons Start and Select -- Enter and Right Shift
• Player 2:
  • Directions Up, Down, Left, and Right -- Keys K, M, N, and ,
  • Buttons A, B, X, and Y -- Keys D, X, S, Z
  • Buttons L and R -- Keys F and c
  • Buttons Start and Select -- Left Ctrl and Left Alt

• Save Snapshot - Saves a snapshot as either .pcx (8bit), .bmp (16bit), or .png (32bit ARGB).
• Show/Hide FPS - Shows or hides the frame per second display which appears on the bottom-left corner of the screen. This can only be enabled in auto frame rate mode.
• Save SPC Data - Selecting this will search for the beginning of the next song and save the data into a .spc file, which saves it similarly as a .srm file. To capture a song, it is best recommended to initiate this feature approximately 2 seconds before the next song starts. This does have potential to fail though, so don't expect it to work all the time.
• Sound Buffer Dump - This dumps the sound buffer in ZSNES and also filters out any unoccupied space. The sound buffer contains decompressed samples which are written to when ZSNES plays/decodes a sample from sound memory. Because of the way ZSNES buffers the sound data, this can produce inaccurate results.
• Snapshot/Increment Frame - Same as snapshot, but it returns to the F1 menu after a couple of frames. Useful for making animations.
• Increment Frame Only - Does the same as above, except no snapshot is taken.
• Move This Window - Moves the F1 menu to a different location.
• Screen Shot Format - Chooses what format to use for screen shots. Choices are PCX (available only in 8bit color depth mode), BMP (bitmap) and PNG (Portable Network Graphic).

Almost everything in zsnesl.cfg should now be editable through the GUI. The GUI also has a few more options that are not found in the configuration file, such as more graphic pack directory configurations.

Currently, ZSNES supports Game Genie, Pro Action Replay, and GoldFinger codes.

• Here are the steps to get the codes working:
• 1.) Load the ROM which you want to patch.
• 2.) Exit to the GUI and enter the code of your choice in the cheat menu.
• 3.) After that, you may have to reset the game to get the cheat code to work. Sometimes, it is not necessary. You also may have to click on the FIX button.
  
  
• NOTE: Some cheat codes are meant to be for different versions of the game. If a cheat code doesn't work and there is one for both Game Genie and Pro Action Replay, try them both.

To enable SNES Mouse, press 7 once for 1st player and twice for 2nd player.
To enable SNES Super Scope, press 7 three times.
To disable either one, either press 6 or press 7 until you see a disable message onscreen.

• Here are the controls for the Super Scope:
• Fire -- Left mouse button
• Cursor Mode Button -- Right mouse button
• Pause -- Backspace key on keyboard
• Enable/Disable Autofire -- =/+ key on keyboard

ZSNES auto-detects the SuperFX emulation from the header and enables it when found. Also, take note that the SuperFX is an additional 10Mhz(Ver1) or 20Mhz(Ver2) chip which also has to be emulated with the SNES; it will most likely produce a very noticeable slow down in emulation if you don't have a fast computer.

Sometimes, the MultiTap isn't compatible with some games. If that happens, disable MultiTap by going to Config-->Add-Ons and choosing None. You may also need to go to Config-->Options, and enable "Use Player 3/4 as Player 1/2". You could also add an NSRT header to your ROM.

IPS patcher:
Rename your .ips file to the ROM filename with the .ips extension (eg. If your ROM is SD3.smc and your ips is SD3V05.ips, rename SD3V05.ips to SD3.ips) and ZSNES will patch the ROM in realtime without modifying the ROM file's contents. Zipped ROMs are patched according to the unzipped name (eg. Seiken3.zip containing SD3.smc is patched by SD3.ips, not Seiken3.ips). You can also use .ips files that are inside .zip files.

• - 65816 lacks correct timing. Although ZSNES bases the timing on a variable cycle/instruction, it does not deduct correct values (such as 16bit instructions should deduct 1 more cycle than 8bit instructions). 100% cycles of ZSNES isn't 100% cycles of a SNES because of that. This means that a lot of games either won't run or will produce horrible displays. Sometimes, adjusting the % of execution can fix those problems. This is all due to inaccurate documentation used when the ZSNES 65816 core was written. There are no plans on re-writing the 65816 timing yet.
• - Some games sometimes tend to not display things properly because of graphic features that aren't implemented yet.
• - The Sound DSP chip still has its bugs (not many though). Additionally, no one knows the exact timing of the SPC700 chip.

The ZSNES homepage is located at : http://www.zsnes.com
