[c264] Yape 0.70.1 SDL2

Spy vs Spy. Photo@Gamebase

yapeSDL 0.70.1  13/10/2015

A new binary release of yapesdl for Ubuntu 64-bit and Windows 32/64 bit. The following most notable changes were made:

• serial IEC implemented to complement the Commodore plus/4's parallel IEC
• much improved VIC-II emulation (lightpen latches, sprite crunching, DMA)
• improved SID emulation & replay (6581R4 default for C64, 8580 for plus/4)
• minor CIA changes
• ported and compiled to Javascript using Emscripten
• savestates support
• implemented a simple options menu at long last
• video speed increased via 'SDL_SetRenderTarget'
• use 'SDLGameController' API rather than 'SDLJoystick'
• more consistent positional keymapping
• simple overlay keyboard for hints
• more jostick keyset options
• preliminary ZIP file support

USAGE

The user interface isn't yet ready, so you MUST memorise a couple of keyboard shortcuts:

• F12 or ESCAPE: exits the emulator
• F11: soft reset
• LCTRL + F11: forced reset (memory remains intact)
• SHIFT + F11: hard reset (clear memory, reloads ROMs, rewinds tape)
• F5: press PLAY on tape
• F6: press STOP on tape
• F7: save screenshot to BMP file
• F8: enter the user interface, press F8 again or ESC to quit.
• You can move around in the menus with the arrow keys, press ENTER for selection.
• F9: quick debugger
• F10: save current settings to user's home directory
• • LALT + 1-3: set window size
  • LALT E: switch among emulators (C4 cycle based; C+4 line based; C64 cycle based)
  • LALT + I: switch emulated joystick port
  • LALT + M: enter console based external monitor and disassembler
  • LALT + P: toggle CRT emulation
  • LALT + R: machine reset
  • LALT + S: display frame rate on/off
  • LALT + W: toggle between unlimited speed and 50 Hz frame rate (original speed)
  • LALT + ENTER: toggle full screen mode
  • LALT + F8: save memory pointed by $2B/$2C and $2D/$2E
  • LALT + KPLUS: collate replay frequencies
• Internal disk LOAD/SAVE operations are supported to the current file system directory - which is usually '/home/<username>/yape' - in C+4 modes.
• Any PRG files you may wish to load, should go there, although you can browse the directory tree from the user interface, too.
• This means that an exact filename match will load the requested program, similarly can you save a file.
• Full ROM banking is supported, currently only via the yape configuration file. You must fill in the path for the relevant ROM image you intend to use.
• However, Yape supports some internal ROMs already. These are:
  • 'BASIC' - the ROM image containing the BASIC interpreter
  • 'KERNAL' - the system kernal ROM image
  • '3PLUS1LOW' - the low bank ROM image of the built-in plus/4 software
  • '3PLUS1HIGH' - the high bank ROM image of the built-in plus/4 software
