- Short: V1.3 of a new C64 emulator, 68020+ only
- Author: cebix@ng-box.wwb.sub.de (Christian Bauer)
- Uploader: cbauer@mzdmza.zdv.uni-mainz.de (Christian Bauer)
- Type: misc/emu
-
- Third release of a new multitasking C64 emulator for the Amiga.
- OS2.1 and a 68020 (or better) are required, as well as copys of
- the original C64 ROMs, which are not included.
-
- This emulator focuses on the exact reproduction of special graphical
- effects possible on the 64, and is therefore not very fast (using a
- 68040/25 and a Piccolo card gives about half of the original C64 speed).
- However, using a line-based VIC model, it is capable of running most
- games and demos correctly, even those with FLI, FLD, DYCP, open
- top/bottom borders, multiplexed sprites etc. (but not AFLI and other
- effects depending on exact VIC/6510 synchronization).
-
- EGS, Picasso and CyBERgraphics graphics cards are supported for faster
- display. Using Amiga modes is possible, but slower (though there's a
- very fast monochrome Amiga mode).
-
- Some small demo programs and the full source code in assembly language
- are included in the archive.
-
- Changes from V1.0:
- - Average graphics speed is now higher, especially in multicolor and
- bitmap modes
- - New, very fast monochrome mode
- - Sprite routines are more efficient. No processor time is wasted
- when all sprites are off.
- - Sound emulation with 6581sid.library when SID card is disabled
- - Minimal screen resolution is now 384×272
- - Sprite collisions can be turned off
- - 1541 emulation now handles sequential files, wildcards and access
- modes and ignores drive numbers and the '@'
- - Frodo is now multilingual by means of "locale.library"
- - Overscan resolutions can now be used
- - Modes like PAL:Lowres are now selectable under OS2.x
- - Option to translate '/' in file names to '\' and vice versa
- - Joysticks are now only polled in the VIC vertical blank routine
- - Amiga graphics routines now also use double buffering
- - Option to accelerate the memory test on reset
- - Bug in Close1541 corrected (could crash on quit)
- - CyBERgraphics support
- - Option to skip frames implemented
