Phaeron opublikował kolejną wersję swojego emulatora Altirra pozwalającego na emulację 8-bitowych konstrukcji firmy ATARI i całej gamy rozszerzeń i dodatków jakie powstały aby dozbroić oryginalną konstrukcję w rozwiązania, które pojawiły się w międzyczasie.
Altirra 2.20 test 27 [4.01.2013]:
feature added:
- UI: Mouse cursor changes when light pen/gun is moved on and off the virtual screen.
bugs fixed
- ANTIC: Fixed display list pointer corruption when a jump instruction executes across vertical blank (fixes Spindizzy load).
- Debugger: Fixed history pane bugs with stack wrapping and with the scroll bar being flaky after a clear.
author's comment:
- Oops, forgot to mention that. It has an emulation fix for a bug that was causing Spindizzy to sometimes fail on start, and some more LLE/HLE kernel fixes (Timewise, DOS 2.5 ramdisk, Pacem in Terris, Cross-Town Crazy Eight, Asteroids emulator). I've also improved the light pen/gun support so you can tell what the button bindings are and so that the cursor changes when the pen/gun is aimed away from the screen.
- This is basically the 2.20 release candidate, btw. I'm listening to suggestions, but shunting the changes to the branch for the next version.
