Changelog

1. v1.22026-11-08
   • The romset can live in any folder of the card. The game looks in .roms/, then roms/, then searches the whole card, and remembers where it found it (.conf/<romset>.loc), so the next start goes straight there; if it is moved, it is searched for again.
   • Settings go in .conf/ and romsets in .roms/: the UVMC2's menu hides folders whose name starts with a dot, so the card shows only the games. A card set up before keeps everything: the old config/ and roms/ are still read, and nothing is written to them any more.
   • Without the romset on the card the screen says ROM FILE NOT FOUND and the name of the zip it wants.
2. v1.12026-11-06
   • An options screen at start, after the Vectrex Studio intro: screen vertical or horizontal, refresh, brightness, controls and calibration.
   • Built with uvmc2-sdk v1.4.13.
3. v1.02026-10-13
   • First release: the Virtual Boy's sound out of the jack, the title screen, and hidden lines removed where the shapes are closed.
