changes

  • Debugging symbols and debugger scripts are now only automatically loaded when the debugger is active.

features added

  • Debugger: #comments can now be used in .atdbg files.
  • Debugger: @(...) within an expression causes that subexpression to be evaluated immediately.
  • Debugger: .diskdumpsec now dumps phantom sectors for a virtual sector.
  • Disk: Added support for physical sector size chunk in ATX images.
  • Display: Added new overscan mode for typical widescreen displays.
  • Display: Added controls for scanline intensity and scaling overall display intensity.
  • Display: Optimized standard NTSC artifacting algorithm.

bugs fixed

  • Disk: Improved emulation of FDC not ready bit ($80).

Author's Comment:

  • Breaking change: Debugger scripts (*.atdbg) are no longer automatically loaded for images unless the debugger is enabled (/debug or via menu).
  • /portabletemp runs off an INI file but doesn't save any changes back to it, for testing.
  • Added support for ATX physical sector size tagging.
  • Fixed disk Not Ready status bit updating inconsistently in some cases.
  • Rotational delays are skipped for disk drives that have a ready signal -- 1050 emulated modes no longer have long delays reading from uninserted disks.
  • Fixed Not Ready being signaled for drives that don't support it (810).
  • Optimizations to ANTIC emulation and NTSC standard artifacting.
  • @(...) in debugger expressions evaluates the subexpression immediately. Example: bx pc=@(pc+100)
  • The .diskdumpsec debugger command now shows all physical sectors associated with the given virtual (logical) sector.
  • Added 'widescreen' overscan mode for the horizontal area commonly shown by modern widescreen LCDs. The visible area is 176 color clocks.
  • Added setting for scanline intensity.
  • Added intensity scale setting.

The intensity scale setting allows the entire display image to be easily scaled up or down without adjusting the rest of the controls. This could be done previously but required moving several controls in sync. The reason for this is to make it easier to darken the image produced by the emulator and turn up the physical monitor brightness for better color reproduction. This is especially useful when trying to match the colors from an 800, which naturally produces a dimmer and highly saturated image. Without this adjustment, the colors are warped due to hitting the limits of RGB space:

Turn the image down to 66%, and the purple turns to blue:

Author's Comment:

  • Rewrote hook for loading BASIC tapes. It now uses CIO hooking for injecting the CLOAD and RUN commands like the BASIC program loader does, for better speed and reliability.
  • Fixed a bug in the ROM validator for WarpOS 32-in-1. Haven't seen failures of this in the wild.

changes

features added

  • Cassette: Added option for detecting and automatically switching BASIC when booting tapes based on whether the tape starts with a BASIC or binary program.

bugs fixed

  • Cartridge: Manually inserted BASIC cartridges are now persisted across runs of the emulator.
  • Cassette: References to tapes mounted directly as .zip files without a direct reference to a file within the zip are now persisted properly across runs.

Author's Comment:

  • Fixed regression in ANTIC display text selection.
  • Manually attached BASIC cartridges (File > Attach Special Cartridge > BASIC) now restore correctly on next run.
  • Added option to detect whether a tape starts with a BASIC program. If so and this option is enabled, the emulator bypasses holding the Start button, enables BASIC, and types CLOAD.

Author's Comment:

  • There was a bug where the Input State controllers were being merged between the input maps. That's wrong since the Input State controllers target per-map flags. These are now excluded from merging.

Author's Comment:

  • Fixed a regression that caused line breaks to be dropped on pasting.
  • Adjusted pots to return min value 1 after some testing. (Paddles always returned 1 on the 800XLs and 130XE, Keyboard Controller returned 2-3 on XLs and 1-3 on XE.)
  • Fixed a bug in the new digital pot inputs where they sometimes failed to update depending on the initial value.
  • Another attempt at fixing some redraw bugs in the debugger history view.
  • Alt+click can now also decode addresses in PEEK and POKE statements.

features added

  • Input: Digital sources can now be bound to the Paddle Knob input on paddle controllers to use the paddle lines as switches.
  • UI: Escaping is now supported for text copy and paste.

bugs fixed

  • ATBasic: Fixed crash when Break is pressed prior to startup banner.
  • Display: Fixed a high CPU usage issue with enhanced text display when paused.
  • Input: The Input State and Console controllers are no longer blocked in 5200 mode.

Author's Comment:

 

  • AltirraOS 3.17: Fixed regression in 3.16 that caused some fine scrolling code to execute in screen open when it shouldn't.
  • ATBasic 1.56: Fix for crash that occurred when hitting Break prior to startup banner.
  • Fixed Input State and Console controller types not activating in input maps in 5200 mode.
  • Added copy/paste escaping support: special keys like Invert and arrow keys can now be pasted with escape syntax in braces, i.e. {invert} and {left}. There is now also a copy escaped command that will use these escapes to produce keystrokes that can re-type those characters. ^ and + prefixes mean control and shift, i.e. {^tab} and {+tab}.
  • The paddle knob (linear) input on paddles can now be driven digitally to use it as a switch input.

  • AltirraOS: Corrected ICBLLZ/ICBLHZ values after CIO get commands.
  • Disk Explorer: Fixed crash when write flush fails due to another program locking the disk image file.

  • The Recommendations page now has a note if the keyboard is set to cooked mode.
  • Fixed crash in Disk Explorer when write flush fails due to another program locking the disk image file, like a virus scanner.
  • Disk Explorer now forces read-only mode when the disk image file being mounted is marked read-only.
