Good-Verktyg

Dapple 1.20

Dapple är en Apple ][ emulator. Följande är nytt:

• Begun work on improving 65SC02 support; fixed a bug (I didn't grok BBRx) in the 65SC02 disassembler functionality.
• Wrote (it's not linked in yet) a routine to determine whether an enhanced //e ROM is active, because you cannot use the NMOS 6502 on an enhanced //e.
• Reconstructed 1.12 from unreleased version 1.10 after all later versions failed to boot (WAI NE!!!)good thing I kept 1.10 around.

Hatari 0.25

Hatari är en Atari ST emulator för Linux, Mac OSX, FreeBSD & BeOS. Följande är nytt:

• Support for big endian systems like PowerPC machines has been improved, especially the Spectrum 512 pictures are now working better there.
• Hatari now also compiles and runs on Mac OS X. Additionally the blitter chip is now beeing emulated, too, and there is also support for big VDI screen resolutions.
• And you can now save YM and WAV sounds.

RockNES 2.40

RockNES, en NES emulator för DOS, har blivit uppdaterad. Följande är nytt/fixat:

• More internal changes and rewrites
• NES joypad latch was not being cleared if the input type is joystick
• Fixed a mistake on movie play status (bleh)
• Fixed a stupid loading bug for trained ROMs
• Fixed ppu address reset behaviour (Rambo is okay)
• Fixed MMC3 IRQs (yay, finally)
• Allowed mapper IRQs to trigger on scanline 240 (fixes a few games)
• Added a specific fix for Rad Racer games (the road is okay)

Raine 0.37.1

Raine, Arkademulatorn, har blivit uppdaterad. Följande är nytt:

• Source/games/xsystem2.c: fix coin bugs in plumppop and tnzs by taking the "mcu simulation" from mame. Interesting code, by the way...
• Source/: profile.h, alleg/profile.c, gui/about.c: show an estimation of your cpu frequency in the about dialog (?! icon) after you have loaded at least one game.
• Source/games/macrossp.c: fix company, add more cycles to avoid slow downs, and fix non transparent sprites (are there really some ?)
• Source/games/hyperpcb.c: hyperpac is now working (thanks to mame for the "mcu simulation" !) Also, speed hacks for hyperpac and hyperpcb are now working correctly.
• Source/games/default.c: force recalibration of the rdtsc timer everytime we run a new game. This fixes bad music speed of some games when you had run outzone as your first game in raine.
• Source/: sound/sasound.h, alleg/sasound.c, alleg/soundcfg.c, seal/sasound.c: remove all the low level sound parameters from raine.cfg, and put safe values in the source instead (I hope these ones are safe at least !).
• Source/games/gunbird.c: fix the bad colours in s1945 demo. It was because the sprites need to be delayed by 2 frames.
• Source/timer.c: fix a very bad bug with periodic timers. It fixes music speed in tengai and strikers 1945.
• Source/config.c: display info about 16bpp games (in -listinfo)
• Source/games/nmk.c:
  remove useless draw_acrobatm and fix bad sprites (in acrobatm, but maybe it affects other games too).
• Fix -listinfo for tdragon2 and macross2
• Fix bad layer in acrobatm (alignement ?)
• Add function keys F5-F8 to toggle manually layers (for those who are inteerested !).

God Jul

Julen är tiden då man ligger o slappar,
käkar risgrynsgröt och öppnar klappar.
Om man varit snäll kommer tomten hit,
inte bråkat och gjort en massa skit.
Så vi får hoppas att Sanite varit snäll,
annars han av tomten kanske får smäll.
Vi får hoppas att tomten inte gör någon miss,
och glömmer att åka till vår Nemesis.
Trist att vi på SEN bara numera är sex,
fast kvar har vi alltid vår JPX.
Akta er för kyla och halsfluss,
tack och lov att vi har vår Sajruz.
Vår sommmarjobbare som kallas The Smoker,
han är en riktigt rolig toker.
Hoppas ni tyckte att denna dikt var kul,
alla på SEN önskar en riktigt God Jul!

Rykten om megaton

Det går runt många rykten på Internet nu om Nintendos, så kallade, megaton-nyhet. Glöm inte att detta bara är ett rykte, fast det kommer från hyffsat säkra källor, och det kan mycket väl visa sig vara falskt. Det dom säger är i alla fall att en av Nintendos advokater nyligen gick igenom kontrakten Nintendo gjorde med Sony när de skulle skapa PlayStation-X, CD-spelaren till SNES, och upptäckte att det var Sony som bröt kontrakten och inte tvärt om. Detta innebär att Nintendo nu, när Sony byggt upp varumärket Playstation, kan gå in och stämma dem och få både namnet och alla vinster de gjort på namnet.

Det sägs också att Nintendo kommer att köpa, eller gå samman, med både Sega och Capcom. Detta låter kanske lite mer rimligt, men man skall aldrig vara säker.

Dapple 0.99

Dapple är en Apple ][-emulator för DOS. Nyheterna är:

0.99:
• Debugger restored (F5 this time). This is a partial rewrite of Marat Fayzullin's debugger, using the Dosius Disassembler (dasmc02).
  
  0.98i:
  
• Alt is Open-Apple in //e mode. Ctrl-Alt is Option in //e mode. No combination key for both yet, you'll need a joystick for that still.
  
  0.98h:
  
• Gee, I can't remember what the original tweak was. :p
  
• Added PrtSc, as per user request .
  
  0.98g:
  
• Fixed some bugs relating to the color settings.
  
• Tweaked amber: it now looks much more realistic.
  
  0.98f:
  
• Removed /?, it takes too much screen real estate. You might ask why all these 0.98 versions: it's not ready for prime time yet, so I don't see 1.00 coming soon. I suspect my code has succumbed to creeping featurism.
  
  0.98e:
  
• Fixed /?, this may be the last time /? is available.
  
  0.98d:
  
• Another workaround for Xevious, the /XEVIOUS switch...
  
• Added "real" documentation (dapple.man) in the *X style.
  
  0.98c:
  
• For those who would like to use Xevious without being stuck in mono I added the /NOSAVEINI switch to trash changes to settings on exit.
  
  0.98b:
  
• No real differences, tweaked M65C02 a little.
  
  0.98a:
  
• Got the new M65C02 to build under Turbo C++ 1 again.
  
• Also, fixed a small bug in ][+ emulation mode (Flash can't be disabled on ][+!)
  
  0.98:
  
• Preliminary support for the 80-column card, although it doesn't work yet. Text support in 40-column mode is at //e Classic level, although the Mousetext has been in the font since the beginning. Challenge: If you are able to get PR#3 to work at the level of Andrew Gregory's emulator, I will put your name immediately after 1.00 here, and I will put your name at the top section of any source files tweaked to get to this point. I really do appreciate the help of Holger Picker and David Empson; it has been *quite* invaluable in getting the emulator this far.
  
  0.97a:
  
• Fixed a bug where the printer port defaulted to the current ROM...I am not immune to PEBKAC.

Mimic 2.11

Mimic är en Arkad, Mega Drive, Game Gear och Game Boy-emulator för Windows. Nytt är:

• Fix:WindowsNT/2000/XP issue resolved

• moved: full zip integrity check was moved to the checksum dialog (so checksum and crc32 options have to be enabled) check-status is shown in the progress dialog
  
• misc: settings->paths can be manually edited by single-click
  
• misc: several scanning/fixing/integrity check window title updates
  
• misc: several internal trimming and backuppath code changes
  
• removed: advaced scanner option: delete useless zipsubdir structure (It's enabled by default now...remember: it's just a useless zipstructure entry...not a real subfolder).
