[»] Applet version patched: incorrect color palette
by Ijon Tihi - Oct 1st 2007 03:31:58

A bug in the applet version was fixed.
IndexColorModel(BitSize,...) with BitSize=4 and 18 palette colors was used. Applet version was unable to run on a newer JRE.
Changing BitSize=5 allowed the applet to run on a JRE 1.6.x.

[»] Future plans
by Ijon Tihi - Feb 22nd 2006 13:25:57

Applet version is based on very initial code sample and it seems that it hang ups sometimes, especially on multicore systems. Current development version does not suffer from this problem but it is not suitable for release yet.
Future release plans include the following enhancements:
1. Release stable applet version with selectable upscale factor.
2. Add FDD support to both applet and midlet versions and launch Karateka :-)
3. Create java application release.
All changes are fairly easy to implement but I realize that my project is almost senseless and I don't have much time to spend on it. Anyway I promise that I'll implement the above mentioned changes somewhere in the near future.
