NEC PC-6001 Computer Emulator - PC6001V v2.0.4 - Released
- Details
- Category: Windows
What's New:
Google Translate:
- Implemented romaji input for kana. (Thanks to Windy)
- Changed the key auto input to change the key matrix like the actual key operation.
* The old specification forced key interrupts from strings, but this is not recorded in the replay.
* Romaji input uses automatic key input internally, so replays will not be recorded correctly with the old specification.
* Since the key matrix is recorded in the replay file for each frame, the actual input can be reproduced.
- Added mutex for key matrix handling. Prevent matrix from changing during key scan.
- Improved the accuracy of the number of generated samples for PSG/FM sound sources.
- Fixed the number of audio samples per frame during replay playback/recording. (For PSG status reproduction) Changed replay to record only frames with key matrix changes.
- Fixed the problem that if there is no newline at the end of the last line, it was missed when reading the file for automatic key input.
- Corrected that TAB? was output when switching Kana-Kana (SHIFT+PAGE).
- SAVE fixes anywhere. IFF,IFF2,Halt of CPU could not be saved correctly.
- Fixed first frame of replay not playing.
- Changed the encoding of this file (Readme.txt) from Shift JIS to UTF-8.

Commodore Emulator - VICE v3.7 - Released
- Details
- Category: Multiple Platform
What's New:
** general
----------
- From now on VICE will write its version into the config file and show a
warning message when using a config file from a different version.
- The binary monitor interface is stable now. Examples of projects using it:
- https://github.com/GeorgRottensteiner/C64Studio
- https://github.com/MihaMarkic/vice-bridge-net
- https://github.com/Sakrac/IceBroLite
- https://github.com/empathicqubit/vscode-cc65-debugger
- https://github.com/rolandshacks/vs64
- Added Debian packages of development builds of the SDL2 and Gtk3 UIs and the
headless build (amd64 only).
You can find bleeding edge development builds on github:
https://github.com/VICE-Team/svn-mirror/releases
Whenever you stumble about a bug, please try with the latest development build
first - perhaps we already fixed it :)
- Removed all kernal patching and load different ROM files instead. This is
easier to handle and more logical anyway :)
- Renamed all included ROM files to use a more elaborate naming scheme, for
example as in "kernal-901227-01.bin".
Unfortunately not all included files could be identified yet - if you have
related ROM dumps around yourself, please take your time to compare against
the following, and let us know if you can identify one of these files:
- C128 ROMs: kernalfi, kernalfr, kernalit, kernalno
- Printer ROMs: mps801.bin, mps803.bin, nl10.bin
- PET ROMs: chargen.de
(Wanted in all cases is what the markings on the actual chip read)
- CRT emulation improvements:
- uses measured (different) color coordinates for odd/even lines when possible
- added option for U-only delay line (1084 style)
- More realistic handling of the case when two paddles are selected at the same
time.
- Keyboard handling was rewritten / fixed
- The case when two host keys are mapped to different CBM keys with different
modifiers is handled differently (correctly) now, so some old keymap(s) may
expose detail errors as a result - please report them!
- Fixed Shiftlock/Capslock mapping
- All extra keys that are not in the regular matrix are handled in generic
code now.
- used by C128 40/80 and CAPS keys, Restore
- extra keys can operate in "non locking" mode
- More realistic behaviour of the virtual drive
- always return 'files scratched' (instead of 'file not found'), even if the
file does not exist
- More realistic behaviour when mounting images:
- When attaching a d64 image to a 1571 drive, create an 'unformatted' image for
the second side.
- Create empty tracks for non existing tracks also when mounting gcr images
- SID fixes:
- use a few more bits for better accuracy when calculating the 8580 filter
DAC values.
- fix filter ringing/self oscillating with 6581 and 8580
- CIA fixes:
- Improved the CIA shift register.
- Fix the case when pb changes value after changing the control bits for
pb/pb7 output. Fixes the turn disk space detection of the 'Love' demo.
- Add SPT (Stupid Pet Tricks) userport joystick adapter emulation.
- Fixed use of SO_REUSEPORT on server sockets - this allowed multiple VICE
instances to bind to the same port, with an indeterminant one receiving each
incoming connection. Now uses SO_REUSEADDR instead, which allows use of a
port that remains in the TIME_WAIT state after a previous process closed,
but does not allow use of a port that is still in active use.
- Add DragonFly BSD support.
- Remove Android support.

- rp-config now has a built-in update checker on the "About" tab.
- KTX2: RG88 texture format and swizzling are now supported.
