YAPE 1.1.1 27/02/2017

This time around with mostly fixes, but the T6721A Toshiba speech LSI emulation also got a little compatibility boost, which is - again - unmatched so far in any other emulator.

But let's have a look what's in there:

•     implemented proper 48-bit mode for the T6721A speech LSI emulation
•     somewhat improved vblanking
•     save window content to 32-bit BMP
•     awkward TED bitmap DMA bank switching bug corrected
•     occasional tape creation dialog crash fixed
•     built-in assembler fix (BRK mnemonic)

Alas, the 48-bit speech encoding was only used in certain built-in words of Magic Voice and A Bee C's cartridges for the C64. So there is some extra work necessary to actually check those one out on the plus/4. Alternatively, why not try creating custom speech with the open source SPTK toolkit. I am not saying it's straightforward, though, in fact that would be a firstie, too.

CHANGES IN 1.1.0c FROM 1.1.0 released on Jan 5, 2017

And again... a nasty sound bug has made its ways to the initial 1.1.0 release 3 days ago. To top it all off the most important novelty, the OpenGL shader, was not even included in the ZIP package! Oh well... Please move ahead to the download page for a new package with the fixed executables as well as the external shader ('crt.glsl'). The new archive bears the same name as the former one, but the EXE-s have a new timestamp and show '1.1.0c' as version number. Besides to that, you shall find there the aforementioned shader which should reside right in the YAPE folder. If you don't like it and prefer the simpler, built-in OpenGL shader simply remove it from the EXE folder. My sincerest apologies for the inconvenience it may have caused, you see I am overall very happy to be able to squeeze some spare time for this silly hobby and my attention is extremely limited. Have fun!
