Provenance EMU

2.2.0 Released

Added 2022-12-09 14:50:15 +0000 UTC

Massive update.

Much requested features like movable buttons (temporary hack until I rewrite on screen controls from scratch), updates to cores, better and faster importing, fix custom artwork deletion on library reload, metal improvements, SwiftUI updates (SwiftUI is nearing completion of features and will be the default UI soon).

Check the changelog on the release blog and/or GitHub for the entire list.

Thanks to all testers, contributors and patrons.

As usual, Patrons who have previously sent their UDID can install OTA by visiting https://provenance-emu.com on their mobile device and clicking "OTA".

For tvOS devices, you can use `Xcode`, `iTunes/Music.app` or `Apple Configurator 2.app` to install without needing to re-sign (patrons only).

For all others, we recommend using AltStore/SideStore app source from the homepage.

AltStore should be unlocking 3rd party sources for non-altstore patrons I've been told. We're also working on our own open-source, non-paywalled sideloading fork of AltStore called SideStore It also won't require a desktop server to sign. It should be released within the coming weeks.

Until then, you'll have to use other 3rd party re-sign apps. I wish I could recommend a good one, but there aren't many without downsides. The best I can say until SideStore is released or confirmed that AltStore allows our source for non-beta-patrons of AltStore, is to try one of the other 3rd party installers.

For additional installation help, visit our Discord in the #help channel.

This was a massive release, and I'm already working on the next one with special exclusive features for Patrons, including sync of save states for sure and potentially new cores.

Speaking of new cores, Nintendo DS, DosBox, Vectrex, ColecoVision, Intellivision and MSX are all very very close to fully working. If not, by the end of 2022, I'm targeting Jan 2023.

If I don't speak to you until then, happy holidays and happy new year, though I truly do think I'll have another release before the end of the year.
