Supports:
- all "woz test images" v1.3 (WOZ1, WOZ2) are working, except 3.5"
- additionally: Frogger (spiradisc), Choplifter (not Enhanced //e!), Lode Runner, Marble Madness, Skyfox.
- woz images can be .gz or .zip compressed (ie. same as other supported images)
- save-state
Limitations:
- read-only, so WOZ images are forced to be write-protected
. as a result, games that need r/w images won't work (Stickybear Town Builder, Wizardry)
- 5.25" only (not 3.5")
- Added Configuration GUI to include checkbox for "50Hz"
- Implicitly use PAL or NTSC base 6502 clocks depending on video refresh rate
- Added new -50hz and -60hz command line switches
- Updated save-state for video refresh rate
1.28.8.0: Updated version & history.txt
Updates for DHGR MIX (#633):
. Support new switch -rgb-card-invert-bit7 to invert bit7 for Dragon Wars.
- Reverted DHGR MIX mode and AN2 off to invert bit7
. Support DHGR MIX mode and AN2 off to invert bit7 (undocumented)
. Improve the video-mode precondition to check for 80COL access occurring before $C05F
. Relax the video-mode precondition to just checking VF_MIXED
. In DHGR B&W mode, then HGR screen is also B&W
. For '50% scan lines', don't blend in NTSC B&W mode (as this was inconsistent with the RGB colour rendering), and DHGR MIX mode would look odd!
For the RGB hires look-up table:
- extended to include the previous video byte's high bit
- so it's now: {previous high bit + prev 2 video bits + next 2 video bits} & current byte
For all the RGB look-up tables:
- reduced from 512 to 256 lines (only 256 were being used, so it was just wasting space)
Refactored CopyMixedSource():
- fixed the Rainbow demo (#627)
- sped up in Debug config
Bumped version to 1.28.3.1.
Support the old AppleWin 1.25 vertical blending for hires:
- extended Config dialog to include 'Vertical Blend' checkbox
- Persist 'Video Styles' to Registry
- new cmd line options to select this style & also select 'RGB (Color Monitor)'
- code refactor to support enum VideoStyle_e (and replaced g_uHalfScanLines with a bit in g_eVideoStyles)
Bumped version to 1.28.2.0.
Supported modes selected via toggling AN3 and clocking in 80COL:
- 140 color mode (Apple calls this mode 2, Video7 calls this mode 0).
- mixed mode (Apple calls this mode 3, Video7 calls this mode 2).
- 560 mono mode (Apple calls this mode 1, Video7 calls this mode 3).
Save-state is also persists the extra state.
And there's a few corrections to APPLE2E.SYM for the 80STORE and 80COL I/O addresses.
Renamed this video mode to: "Color (RGB Monitor)"
Also renamed "Color (Monitor)" to "Color (NTSC Monitor)".
As for the colours: I've changed them from the original 1.25 colours. Instead I runtime-generate the colours from the NTSC code. See NTSC.cpp's GenerateBaseColors(). This shifts the same 4-bit pattern in, combining with NTSC color phase, until the colour stabilises. Then I average the next 4 RGB values to get the final colour. The reason for this is that we now have consistent colours between NTSC and this simplified rendering mode.
NB. The 2 greys (in GR,DGR,DHGR) are now the same RGB value.
Added new cmd-line switch: -videorom <file> to replace the video ROM for the Enhanced //e.
- Support video ROM sizes of 4K, 8K and 16K (top 8K only).
- NB. The rocker switch is set to European video ROM.
F10 (for //e or Enhanced //e models) emulates the PAL //e's rocker switch (under the keyboard) to toggle between European or US video ROM.
Other:
- Fixed debugger's view of the AltCharSet soft-switch (it was showing the opposite state).
* Refactor Language Card:
. MemSetPaging() now not used for $C080-C08F accesses.
- Instead LC registers its own I/O handler like all other slot 1-7 cards.
. Saturn uses base LC's 16K for bank0
* Move all 'modechanging = 0' to UpdatePaging()
Added support for #590:
* Changed Apple II original to default to no LC
* Added new cmd-line switch: -s0 <languagecard|lc>
* Changed so when LC is in slot-0, it now use Apple II+'s F8 (auto-start) ROM
Support for #408:
* added slot-0 LC and Saturn 128K for Apple II and II+
* added save-state support
- for slot-0 LC/Saturn, save the LC state in the slot-0 card, not the //e MMU; and switch to a new Apple2 unit ver2
* added g_Slot0, g_SlotAux
* added new LanguageCard.cpp/h to project and moved Saturn code into these new files.
* updated VS2013,2015,2017 projects
Support partial reads for sequential accesses of 6 or less cycles.
- And 31 or less cycles when in "Disk Access Speed" = "Authentic Speed"
Save-state support for partial read cycle (Disk][ unit v3)
Added boot-time logging for Phasor1.dsk (ProDOS 1.1.1)
. For the 14M video modes (DHGR,DGR,80COL), start rendering 1x 14M pixel early to account for these video modes being shifted right by 1 pixel
. Revert the display width back to 560 by disabling EXTEND_14M_VIDEO_BY_1_PIXEL
. reverted default so that ALT+TAB is not hooked (#556)
. reverted default so that ALT GR's fake LCONTROL is not hooked (#558)
. added new switches: -hook-alt-tab and -hook-altgr-control to support hooking these key combo's (#556)
. When Alt Gr is pressed, then manually post WM_CHAR message on receiving a WM_KEYDOWN (manually translate and account for shift/control/caps-lock)
. Hook filter: suppress Alt Gr's (ie. RMENU's) fake LCONTROL messages
Also:
. Hook filter: allow Ctrl+Shift+Esc (for Task Manager)
. Keyboard: refactor only use accessor functions to get the Alt/Control/Shift state
. Created a dedicated thread with message loop (#570)
HookFilter dll: Only call GetKeyState() if keycode is ESC (instead of every time)
DebuggerCursorUpdate(): reduce sleep from 10ms to 1ms
. When in MODE_LOGO, don't pass WM_CHAR to Apple II keyboard (now consistent with WM_KEYDOWN)
. Small refactor for Apple II keyboard's WM_KEYDOWN handler
Move code for log init & done to Log.cpp
Changed HGR rendering, such that that last video byte (at hpos=64) clears g_nLastColumnPixelNTSC so that the end-of-line off-screen pixel is zero (see #555).
. Fix for GetKeyState() not detecting the special keys as being up (so AKD was erroneously reporting the key still down).
. eg. Whilst pressing TAB, press LEFT ALT, then release TAB.
. Also suppress ALT+SPACE
. PostMessage to AppleWin message-pump for WM_KEYDOWN, WM_KEYUP for these special key combos
. Add special any-key-down (AKD) handling for these special key combos
. Start video rendering from screen position -1 (ie. 1 DHGR pixel offscreen)
. Allows 559th DHGR vertical column to be visible
. But now an HGR HCOLOR=2 vertical line at column 0 is only 1 DHGR pixel wide
Also:
. Fix TEXT80 to be aligned with DHGR
. Fix FLASH in TEXT80 (inverse aux bits needed to be masked with 0x7f)
. DCD state is now a mirror of DSR unless -dcd switch is used. (Fixes#553)
. Removed -dsr,-dtr switches, so -modem is now an alias for -dcd. (Also for #553)
. Wait for events (RLSD,DSR,CTS) in CommThread and call GetCommModemStatus() in CommThread.
. SSC: For TCP mode, support DSR, DCD & CTS status bits (#308).
. SSC: Now DTR must also be set to enable interrupts (in addition to the respective Tx/Rx interrupt bit).
. SSC: When reading the Status register, throttle calls to GetCommModemStatus() to a maximum of once every 8ms.
. Support TX IRQ for both TCP and COM modes (fixes#522)
. Support CTS/RTS (fixes#311)
. Fixed reading DIPSW registers
. Fixed TCP mode which was only generating an IRQ for first byte received
. Added UpdateCommandReg() to consolidate all updates to SSC command reg
. Updated reference URLs
