No description provided.

typo fix : ATARIOSA.ROM in upcase , atari800 core is not key sensitive with bios.
Shrinked version of  OpenBor from Steward-Fu (openbor_20220422) :
Doesn't requires Parasyte framework, only essential files have been kept.
Recommended for low hardware, should fix slowdowns with parallax scrolling effect games and fixes a lot of things like compatibility and auto-zoom mode.
Chd files now works perfectly.

Builded from https://github.com/libretro/libretro-uae/tree/2.6.1
Commit c68404cf2e83f1136a45b7b3d3f775c619d9d35f   (Sep 12, 2022)
capsimg.so is required to load .ipf roms

This one is compatible and comes from :
https://github.com/midwan/amiberry/releases/download/v2.25/amiberry-rpi-v2.25.zip
Centalize libraries from Parasyte (credits : Steward-Fu), only the one required for :
 - OpenBor
 - Sorr
 - FFplay

Modify launch.sh from OpenBOR to use this new libraries path.
- Switch gpSP and mGBA :
mGBA is now the default GBA emulator, replacing gpSP for better compatibility.
gpSP remains available in the expert section, you won't lose any saves or states.
- new gpSP icon for expert section
- new launch script for mGBA : informs of the change and propose to migrate gamesaves.
- add libretro fake08 core v0.0.2.19
- standalone version updated and moved to expert section
- new icone for standalone version
1 - Games are now automatically imported in Onion thanks to a new importing script created by Onion's Team : no manual shortcuts to create !
2 - The shortcuts created are now .target and respect the recommendations from the ScummVM team to run a game and have the right configuration applied.
3 - A new very important option has been added to the core : "Target FPS for stutter reduction"  allows to run some heavy games with less audio stuttering on the Miyoo Mini. Default value is 55fps and correspond to an audio buffer of about 800 set it to 20 or 30 fps to obtain a buffer of 2000 which helps with heavy games  like Borken Sword 2.5. For Grim Fandango you can set it to 10 or 15.
4 - kyra.dat is now in the right version and allow to run westwood games without problem
5 - The list of compatible games is now a lot bigger and include titles like Grim Fandango or Borken Sword 2.5.
No more limitation to 16 keyboard bindings with mouse mode.
(DOSBox Pure main author made a workaround in version 0.9.0, but the Mini still runs an older core.)

- based on last pcsx commit (4134c62)
- Improve the game compatibility on standalone thanks to the update : now colin 2.0 runs correctly.
- Some little improvements in configuration
- update to the last libretro commit  (7e02df60048db0898131ea365f387a026e4e648d)
- shorter time of palette change notification (cf. libretro/gambatte-libretro#238)

Now a savestate will be done when we exit a mame game but it still not be restored automatically : to avoid bugs (libretro/mame2003-plus-libretro#1433) it is better to let the user load the savestate manually once the game is totally launched.
- Update PCSX_rearmed (libretro core and standalone) as last commits include some game fix.
- Update PCSX-ReARMed.cfg to use SDL audio instead of OSS : it allows to activate auto frameskip in a easier way for users.
