[ZX] ZX Poly 2.1.3 6/03/2021

Pojawiała się nowa odsłona emulatora ZX Poly autorstwa Igora Maznitsa. Głównym celem powstania emulatora nie było jak to zwykle bywa w takich projektach dokładne odtworzenie pracy maszynek Sinclair/Amstrad a rozwiązanie jednego z najbardziej irytujących ograniczeń Spektrusia, tzw. color clash, który ograniczał ilość kolorów do dwóch jakie mogły się pojawić w kwadracie 8x8 piksli. Wizualnie, color clash potrafił niejednemu obrzydzić gumiaczka, kwadraciki mocno irytowały (chociaż bardziej mnie irytowało zbytnia cukierkowatość grafiki na innych platformach;)). A gdyby pozbyć się tego efektu? Możecie sięgnąć po ZX Poly, który wykorzystuje aż 4 emulowane Z80 do przetwarzania grafiki (autor zafascynował się rozwiązaniami Pixar System, w którym za wyświetlanie jednego kanału odpowiadał osobny procesor), w efekcie oprócz pozbycia się irytującego efektu otrzymujemy również możliwość podkolorowania gier (prosty edytor jest dołączony do projektu).

Emulator nie posiada zbyt wybujałego menu, aby pobawić się innymi modelami Spectrusia, czy też CPC, musimy sięgnąć do linii komend (lub edytując plik .cfg), więc na pewno nie ...
