[Acorn] Arculator 2.1 05/09/2021

Tom Walker autor całej masy emulatorów (B-em, CPC-em, Elkulator, ReasonableGBA, RPCemu, SNEM, YAAME, ZX82 czy też PCEm) zaktualizował kod emulatora komputerów BBC Archimedes, kompletnie przynajmniej mi nieznanych konstrukcji z przełomu lat 80/90 zeszłego wieku (musiałem to napisać;)). Mikrokomputery wyposażone w układ ARM oferowały całkiem niezłe możliwości, posiadały swój własny system RiscOS i oferowały moc obliczeniową zbliżoną mniej więcej do 486.
Chcący pobawić się tym egzotycznym sprzętem (z perspektywy Polskiej), a nie zapoznał się wcześniej z np. RPCEmu, polecam odwiedzić stronę 4corn, gdzie znajdziemy wszystkie podstawowe pliki do odpalenia emulatora,ewentualnie można sięgnąć po dość leciwy GAMEBASE Archimedesa Wockie'go, który powinien zawierać wszystko to co przydatne do zabawy na tej platformie (jednak przynajmniej wersja z jego strony wymaga złożenia jej "do kupy" aby działała - da się ale to żmudne zajęcie;)).

Arculator 0.9 6th February 2007

  • Fixed ARM bugs - Bug Hunter now works, Phaethon no longer crashes on level 3

  • Fixed timing in modes 48/49
  • Various optimisations
  • Can now emulate ARM3 at 33mhz
  • Now emulates two hard discs
  • Removed software scaling options - improvements to hardware scaling mean these are not necessary anymore
  • Improved FDI support in new FDC - more games supported (eg Wolf 3d, SF3000 etc) with hard disc install
  • Mouse & keyboard shouldn't lock up in some stuff anymore
  • Some other fixes

Arculator 0.8 23rd October 2006

  • Improved timing. Each model now performs much closer to the original machines (this means slower than previous versions)
  • Can now emulate MEMC page sizes other than 32k, so all memory configurations from 512k to 16 megs are now possible
  • Preliminary FDI support in 82c711 FDC
  • Better FDI support in WD1772 FDC
  • Fast disc emulation in 82c711 FDC
  • Bugfixes to video code. Man United Europe now looks better. Less flicker in Populous, Zarch etc
  • Keyboard/mouse fix, now doesn't freeze in Lemmings 2 and some other games
  • Fixed broken sound in Sensible Soccer and Xenon 2
  • Sound now in stereo
  • Some minor optimisations
  • Seperate ROM + CMOS files for Arthur, RISC OS 2, RISC OS 3 (old FDC) and RISC OS 3 (new FDC)
  • Tracked WD1772 hanging bug down to an incorrectly set CMOS bit! Now fixed

Arculator 0.7 9th May 2006

  • Improved video code - display always centred correctly, multisync mode support (eg 640x480, 640x512 and 800x600), borders always drawn correctly (eg Zelanites)
  • Fixed bug with LDMxx!, !NewLook now works, Arthur desktop now works
  • Fixed bug in WD1772 FDC, disc writing now works again
  • Some improvements to ArculFS

Arculator 0.6 28th April 2006

  • Improved FDI support - many more games work
  • Improved video routines - new hardware scaling option, faster! Also more video modes implemented
  • ArculFS - read files from the Windows file system (read-only at the moment)
  • Can emulate ARM250

Arculator 0.5 23rd January 2006

  • Working 82c711 emulation. This allows high density disc access and avoids the hanging bug in 1772 emulation
  • Along with 82c711 emulation comes IDE hard disc emulation
  • Preliminary FDI support (1772 only)
  • Increased frequency of keyboard/mouse updates - mouse now much smoother
  • Slight optimisations to video

Arculator 0.4 12th October 2005

  • Delayed IRQ by one instruction - Lemmings 2 now has sound.
  • Fast disc access.
  • Can disable scanline effect.

Arculator 0.35 5th October 2005

  • Fixed reading of R15 in some instructions - Nebulus now works.
  • Sound improved a bit.
  • Fixed RSC instruction (don't think it affects anything though).
  • Altered ARM timing.
  • Beginnings of new-style Arc emulation (HD floppies + IDE hard discs in theory, not working yet though).
  • Palette splits slightly more stable (Lotus 2).
  • Arculator 0.3 22nd August 2005
  • Much improved sound (filter still a bit off though).
  • Slight ARM optimisations - 10% speedup.
  • Bug fixes to VIDC and IOC - TCD Powerscroll and ARMageddon Megademo 3 now work.
  • Emulated prefetch - Elite now works (stupid protection).
  • Fixed stupid video mode 0 bug.
  • Replaced mouse hack with mouse capture technique.

Arculator 0.25 22nd July 2005

  • Disc emulation improved - can now access 720k DOS disc images, write to discs, and up to 4 drives now supported.
  • Arculator will now try to load a 2 meg file called 'rom.rom' before trying ic24-ic27.rom. This allows use of one-file ROM dumps, and Arthur, RiscOS 2 and ARM Linux ROM dumps (none of which really work, but never mind).
  • Slight changes to video emulation, Zelanites demo now looks okay.
  • Slight ARM optimisations.

Arculator 0.2 28th June 2005

  • Added support for dual/quad MEMCs (8 and 16 megs of RAM).
