Releases

Windows

The latest version is available on the website. Older releases are available from the releases tab on GitHub.

Ubuntu

The official releases (same downloads as the Windows builds above) also contain the Linux version of Mesen, built under Ubuntu 16 - you should be able to use that in most cases if you are using Ubuntu.

The Linux version is a standard .NET executable file and requires Mono to run - you may need to configure your environment to allow it to automatically run .exe files through Mono, or manually run Mesen by using mono (e.g: "mono Mesen.exe").

The following packages need to be installed to run Mesen:

  • mono-complete
  • libsdl2-2.0
  • gnome-themes-standard

Arch Linux

Packages are available here: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/mesen

Roadmap

Things that may or may not be added in the future, in no particular order:

-Support for more UNIF boards and more NES/Famicom input devices
-Debugger improvements (APU state display, scripting, etc.)
-Shaders
-Improvements to movie file format to support a few things that currently do not work
-Libretro support
-TAS editor

Compiling

Windows

  1. Open the solution in VS2015/2017
  2. Compile as Release/x64 or Release/x86
  3. Run

Linux

To compile and run Mesen under Linux, you will need:

  • A recent version of clang/gcc
  • Mono 4.2.1+ (package: mono-devel)
  • SDL2 (package: libsdl2-dev)

The makefile contains some more information at the top. Running "make" will build the x64 version by default, and then "make run" should start the emulator.
