This option accepts either 'nearest' or 'linear', to use GL_NEAREST or GL_LINEAR filtering.

Added '-gl_filter' command line option.

This option accepts either 'soft' or 'gl', to use software/OpenGL rendering. The system volume/mixer settings will never be changed volume changes in Stella will only affect the emulation itself. This option now accepts either 'true' or 'false (1 or 0) to enable/disable sound.

The meaning of the '-sound' command line option has been changed.

This means old state saves from previous Stella versions will no longer work.

Switched to using high compatibility M6502 mode by default.

Added support for UA Limited style bankswitching (Funky Fish and Pleiades).

Currently you can switch between the current Stella palette, original Stella palette (pre-1.2 versions), and the z26 palette.

Added support for switchable palettes.

Sound generation is now more tightly synchronized with video updates.

Digital sound support (used in games like Quadrun and Pitfall2) has been greatly improved.

Joysticks, paddles, and driving controllers have been tested. Emulation keys can now be remapped to the keyboard or up to 4 joysticks. This is the first new release for Mac OSX since Stella 1.2.

A new Mac OSX port has been created by Mark Grebe.

(software mode is not yet optimized OpenGL mode works much better) This is the first new release for Windows since Stella 1.2.

A new Windows port has been created, with the GUI based on StellaX.

That means simultaneous (and hopefully more frequent) releases.

The Linux, MacOSX and Windows ports are now based on the same codebase and are actively maintained.

For the Linux versions, ALSA and OSS sound support has been discontinued. The DOS and X11 ports have been discontinued. Here is what is new in this Atari 2600 emulator:
