Hey looking good so far!
Other than a couple of things already mentioned (mouse wheel support & fixing the mouse acceleration), I'd like to request some video fixes/features:
Vsync. I'm seeing some screen tearing both in window and fullscreen mode, which vsync should smooth it up quite nicely.
Also, it appears as though there is some off-scaling going on with the graphics. If I put the filter on point and set a direct scale resolution like 1280x960, I'm still seeing random scaling with the pixels. Basically, all pixels should be 4x4 if using a 1280x960 mode, but some appearing to be 3x4 in random spots on the screen.
Finally, there should be a config slot for Menu music. I had made a track for this, but discovered the config only allows for the title screen and not the menu screen as well.
The video stuff is going to take longer as I have little experience with hardware related features/issues. As for the config, there is a setting for the menu, which is labled as mus_title. This mus is played during the main menu screen that follows the intro.

GREAT to see some SVN Activity
Made some changes today and a few weeks back. Sorry about the slow progression. Life priorities comes first.

Can we hope for a Linux port of this for 1.5? I see that all the API's are in place, it's just a matter of getting the VC6 code and GCC code to play nice :P
I don't know anything about programming for a unix platform nor do I know what needs to be done to get d64ex to compile. I've mentioned many times that this project welcomes anyone willing to contribute their support on getting d64ex to be playable on multiple platforms. So far since the release of 1.4, no one has ever once showed any interest.
To be honest, I am not an expert programmer. Nor will I ever will. I only know based on what I learn and what mistakes that I learn from. Right now this project needs at least one more person if d64ex were to run on the mac/unix platforms. I simply just don't have time to catch up on this stuff.
