I have been using an interim build of BizHawk for mapping games for the SNES. I have version "Interim Build SVN r4263. I decided to try to download and use the newest version to see if there were any improvements. I downloaded Version 2.6.2 that was released on 2021-05-25. When I loaded up a SNES game the option for "Graphics Debugger" under the SNES menu was gone. Has that functionality been removed, or is it just in some other place I have not been able to find?

That is a very old BizHawk! What you missed is that there is now multiple snes cores. The default is snes9x unless a game specifically does not run, for performance reasons (as a casual player it is fine enough for most games) I believe the graphics debugger is only available for bsnes. You simply need to go to Config -> Cores -> SNES and set bsnes there.

I see there is BSNES and BSNESv115+. Is the v115+ the newer and better one to use?

Nevermind, I see only the BSNES has the graphics debugger and the other does not. Thanks for the help with finding the core option.
