  to match that of the actual hardware.
• Show the screen filtering option even when the software renderer is enabled.
  #250

  Thanks for #229, @roblar91!

Changed

• Moved build instructions from README.md to the new CONTRIBUTING.md.

Fixed

  loading one without using the native BIOS will now display an error message.
  #228

v1.1.5

Fixed

• Fixed system files from other cores
  being incorrectly treated as NDS firmware images,
  which resulted in strange behavior when such a file was chosen.
  #183

v1.1.4

Changed

• Updated the "DSi NAND Path" core option description to clarify the role of the no$gba footer.

Fixed

• Fixed some log entries not being output with a newline.
• Fixed a crash when using a hybrid screen layout with a screen ratio of 3:1.
• Fixed DSi NAND images not being recognized if they lacked a no$gba footer
  despite having equivalent data at offset 0xFF800. #195
• Fixed the screen being rendered when using the OpenGL renderer while the emulated lid is closed,
  which caused flickering in some games. #214

v1.1.3

Fixed

• Fixed a crash that would occur when attempting to use the OpenGL renderer on some GPUs. #203

v1.1.2

Fixed

• Fixed a bug where native BIOS images would be used

• Added options to configure the emulated console's starting time.
  The starting time can be the local time (possibly with an offset) or an absolute time.

Fixed

• Fixed an issue where some homebrew would be incorrectly detected as DSiWare,
  resulting in a crash.
• Fixed an issue where trying to load an NDS ROM and a GBA ROM
  without GBA save data would fail.
