wow, that only took 3 minutes before someone posted here

[AspiringSquire]

Nice. That was fast. Thank you, ZSNES Development Team!
However, I'm disappointed that more wasn't done before the release, i.e. delaying release to implement more features/fixes—minor ones, but still. Specifically, I'd like to have the user reminder text switched to my version, here.
Who else supports this change?

Well, if you check the binaries, they were compiled back on Saturday, before you posted the last revision of your User Reminder Text.

Plus, we wanted 1.41 to be just a quick bugfix release, 1.42 will take a bit longer most likely. (Note: saying "lets delay the release for more features/fixes" is exactly why 1.40 came out over 2 years after 1.36)

Well, my new reminder text is kind of a bugfix of grinvader's update. (How about using it for 1.41b? )

[blackmyst]

Nice work. ;0

Winter Gold still seems to crash just as much though.

[crocomire]

Good, very good!

No more Always Stereo bug, thanks ZSNES Team!

[Tallgeese]

Must... locate... toaster... support...

*Twitches*

Great work by the way.

[DOLLS (J) [!]]

Great.

[DEFIANT]

dammit, i posted in the wrong spot again... *bangs head on computer desk*
great job z team. you guys truly should be commended.

[snkcube]

Ah, another great release. Good job ZSNES devs!

[darkbenny]

I am tickled pink.

[Player1]

what should Super System DIP switches be good for? and what is this toaster support? I'm glad the new version is out, because a new version needs testing for bugs extensively, and the public can do that (as long as it is not buggy as hell)

Linux: http://nsrt.edgeemu.com/zsnesl141.tar.gz

Note, we are not supporting any problems you might have in loading this Linux binary (you should really compile it yourself if you're using Linux). You will need the following dependancies in order to get it load:
libz.so.1 libSDL-1.2.so.0 libpthread.so.0 libpng12.so.0 libGL.so.1 libstdc++.so.5 libm.so.6 libgcc_s.so.1 libc.so.6 libdl.so.2 libX11.so.6 libXext.so.6 /lib/ld-linux.so.2
If you're using Debian or Gentoo and update, you should have the needed dependancies.
Again this is only for people who for whatever reason don't want to compile it themselves (or want the extra optimizations of this build). If you can't load it, it's your problem.

If you wish to host this Linux binary on your site, make sure you include this notice in the same place that the binary is downloaded from.

[Agozer]

Great work guys. Now to find that elusive Toaster support...

[kieran_]

Christ, that was quick! Keep up the good work!

Edit: I can't get any of the Sourceforge mirrors to work...

SF is acting a bit bad today, try it again, if still not, try ipher's site.

[Silensho]

New and Improved!
As you've seen on TV! (well, not really)
Guaranteed to make you lose 20 pounds in 5 days or your money back!
(It's free anyway so duh!)
The awesome work of coding geniuses! (now that's for sure)
Zsnes 1.41!
Tada!

Thank you Team Zsnes, once more.

[anewuser]

What? An update already?! I guess is so minor that it won´t even make it to zsnes.com frontpage...

Well, thanks for making a good emulator even better. Keep up the good work as usual.

Must... locate... toaster... support...

*Twitches*

...what is this toaster support?...

...Now to find that elusive Toaster support...

Toaster support? I have been pulling my hair to know what´s that, and what does it do, my conclusion is that toaster support it´s just a myth.

[Cloud Strife]

Freakin' awesome emulator!

[Noxious Ninja]

I guess is so minor that it won´t even make it to zsnes.com frontpage...

1.41 is not minor. For the most part, it is what 1.40 should've been, only we didn't want to delay 1.40 any longer.

HAHAHAHA...HAHA ! </blackheart>

You're freezing.

[xamenus]

I love it. The docs look great (I'm glad that they got finished, I've been busy since yesterday evening), and ZSNES is also more bug fixed and stable. Now I can abandon the doc project for a while (I started college today).

[Annihilated]

Why do none of the mirrors work?
