 - Unlike the old Win32 debugger (but similar to the unmaintained web debugger), works on all platforms (though cumbersome on touchscreens)
 - Major commits (though there are many more)
 
 Multiplayer
 - Added Infrastructure multiplayer support, with automatic DNS configuration
 - Implement more of sceNet (prerequisite for the former feature)
 - Socket re-mapping implemented
 - Assorted bugfixes, thanks ANR2ME
 
 UI

Обновился эмулятор Atari Jaguar - BigPEmu.

- Added some more unaligned read/write edge case handling. This addresses a problem in Theme Park, possibly among other things
- Changed some undocumented RISC instruction behavior to match some of my local hardware tests. One of these changes is known to correct an issue with object directions in Defender 2000
- Added more Jaguar GD functionality. Filesystem functions are stubbed out, but I wasn't sure if anyone really needs/wants this fully implemented, so let me know if it's important to you
- Fixed a few "undefined" Blitter cases (not known to affect any existing titles)
- Linux ARM64 builds are now part of the automated build set. Special thanks to cubanismo for guiding me through the minefield of cross-compiling for ancient Linux targets
- Significant improvements to the network rollback functionality, propagated back from BigInstinct
- All kinds of new platform/framework functionality, also propagated back from BigInstinct. I didn't feel like going through hundreds of changes to make a coherent summary, but one of the more notable additions is a byuu-style run-ahead option
- Exposed a bunch of sound spatialization functionality to the scripting API
- Exposed MOD and MP3 playback to the scripting API
- Added a timing fix for Val d'Isere Skiing and Snowboarding
- Various developer build changes to more accurately reflect hardware and/or detect errors which would break on non-developer builds (this includes enabling M68K address exceptions)
- Lots of "anti-emulator" code will be failing in developer builds at this point, and some related functionality may be propagating to non-developer builds soon; relying on inaccuracies to prevent your software from running in BigPEmu is unwise.
