• Fix joystick GUID generation and update internal gamecontroller database with new GUIDs. Remove related RC1 workaround. Please use the SDL 2.26.1 RC2 (or newer) library when providing new controller mappings.
• Support SDL_WINDOW_FULLSCREEN_DESKTOP flag. It's implemented as a custom screen (instead of WB).
• Refactor library init/quit routines: initialize thread subsystem using constructor.
• Refactor shared library management: open common libraries in constructor and close them in destructor.
• Require ogles2.library minimum version 2 (instead of 0).

• added icons from Carlo again which were accidently bad converted in V1.2
• corrected "Credits" in terms of the Amikit icon(s) ;-)
• the source folder and the save folder is now memorized when doing more than one picture to PDF
• added requester which asks if it is wanted to do more pictures to PDF
• added requester if the PDF file already exists (overwrite protection)
• on commandline/shell it is no longer neccesary to give the full path of the picture file
• its now checked if the PDF file to be saved ends with ".pdf"
• improved error message in case of invalid loaded picture/file
• added automatic closing of the viewer windows
• added Image2PDF as Hollywood Applet (at least Hollywood Player 9.1 has to be used)

Import and export of MIDI files (*.mid) has been integrated into the main programme. The 10 different mouse pointers in the editor have been firmly integrated into the main programme as new 32bit png images. These are now pointers of the same type as the system pointer, ... and much more ...

All available tools (102) and accessories (6) (the plugins of BarsnPipes) for which the source code has been released and whose use with the new version of the main programme makes sense have been integrated. Included in the archive, all available documentation and instructions.

For developers, the "New Rules for Tools" (instructions and all material for programming tools and accessories) have been adapted for MOS 3.17 (and higher). Also an SDK for tools and accessories by Michael Rees, which extends the "New Rules for Tools" and makes them more comfortable.

The "Rules for Skins" (instructions for designing your own surfaces for BarsnPipes), as well as the material for your own translations of the Locale catalogue files are also available for download.

BarsnPipes has thus reached a stage of development that essentially marks an end point. Every possible extension or improvement can be made using the tools or accessories."

• User-configurable disk formats: New option --diskdefs
• New disk formats: ensoniq.mirage and sci.prophet
• Fill missing/bad sectors with -=[BAD SECTOR]=- pattern

• Support for window mode.
• Finalizing of the FLC video player with auto-scaling. We do have a working version, but it's not good enough, so we postponed it to a later update.
• Complete the migration from audio.device to the ahi.device. Also, it kind of works already, but not well enough.
• Fixing hardware rendering to works on the older Warp3D classic drivers again (migration to the newer GCC required extensive rewriting, resulting in clumsy hardware mode on real Warp3D).
• to fix bugs that will be found in this update."

• Retropie's SDL2 version doesn't have SDL_isupper

• added more logging during controller detection
• implemented checking for filenames without charset conversion
• skip files starting with a dot when reading a directory
