Leaf v0.5.0-beta.1
First beta of the upcoming v0.5.0. This is a fresh install (not over-the-air):
download leaf-mlp1-sd-v0.5.0-beta.1.zip, unzip to the root of a FAT32 or ext4 SD
card, and follow https://leaf.game/guide/install/.
New since 0.4.0
- Cover Flow home layout (opt-in). New Settings → Appearance → Layout → Home
Layout: keep the classic Tabs view, or switch to Coverflow, a box-art
carousel with console icons. Press X on a game for search and its Options
(rename, core, performance, scrape). Default stays Tabs. - Smarter ROM scanning. The scanner now recurses subfolders (folder-per-game
layouts work), and auto-generates.m3ufor multi-disc games (groups the
(Disc 1),(Disc 2)… files by name). Hand-made.m3ufiles are still respected. - Friendly arcade names. Arcade / Neo Geo ROMs show real titles (
mslug→
Metal Slug) instead of cryptic set names. Per-foldermap.txtoverrides. - Fixes from 0.4.0 feedback: save-state button no longer bleeds a press into the
game on resume; Bluetooth preference persists across reboot (and the stale BT status
icon is fixed); RetroArch quick-menu A/B confirm/cancel is no longer inverted; audio
codec is muted on standby.
Please test and report
- Coverflow layout and the per-game X menu (rename, scrape, core, performance).
- ROMs in subfolders and multi-disc games (auto-
.m3u). - Arcade titles for your sets.
- The four fixes above.
Known issues
- The
mamecore is still built with generic (non-A55) tuning. Minor; tracked.
Report anything with the exact tag (v0.5.0-beta.1) in the Leaf Discord or the
main repo's issues.
