Support 2nd Disk][ in slot-5, via command line:
- -s5 diskii
- -s5d1 \<imagefile\>
- -s5d2 \<imagefile\>
NB. there's currently no Configuration UI support, except the Drive icons' tooltips show what's in slot-5 & slot-6 (for drive-n). So there's no way to eject the disks or insert new disks. The use-case I'm supporting it Wasteland which just has the 4 disks in the 4 drives.
Improved card management:
- Added `class Card` (in Card.h) which all other cards (that exist as classes) derive from (eg. LC,SSC,Mouse,Disk2).
- Added `class CardManager` (in CardManager.cpp\h) which now manages the 8 slots (and aux slot).
- Added `class Disk2CardManager` (in Disk2CardManager.cpp\h) which provides methods for operations that act on all Disk2 instances at the same time.
- Currently limited to just 1x SSC and 1x Mouse card (why would you need more?). This simplifies things, meaning there's no need to have dedicated SSCManager / MouseCardManager objects.
- Currently the 2nd Disk2 card can only be put into slot-5. This limitation is just due to the complexity of the Configuration UI. Having a more general drop-down per slot UI would remove this limitation.
This change does two things:
1. Updates the registry APIs to reduce the likelihood of uninitialized
variables.
The code wasn't always checking the return value of registry load operations.
In some cases, this led to uninitialized memory being used, and crashes could
result. For example, LoadConfiguration in Applewin.cpp was using an
uninitialized value for the computer type if no registry variable for the
"Apple 2 type" was set.
New registry reading methods and macros have also been introduced, allowing
default value fallbacks for the cases where a registry variable is not found.
This makes registry access simpler and safer when a default value is known in
advance.
The registry code's style has also been updated to conform with the rest of
the code base (tabs instead of spaces, naming conventions, etc.)
2. Introduces string safety improvements.
A number of code paths have been modified to use safe-string functions instead
of their unsafe counterparts (e.g., strcpy, sprintf). In the process, some
strings were converted from "char" to "TCHAR". This was done mostly for
consistency with the rest of the code-base.
- 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
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.
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
. 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)
Changes to ease code compilation in GCC.
Disk_t and HDD contain a std::string and for this reason they need a proper constructor, ZeroMemory is not guaranteed to work.
. Debug 'G(o)' cmd now defaults to normal speed (and precise video updates)
. New debug 'GG' cmd enables full speed (and periodic video updates)
. Single-stepping (normal or full speed) now routed through ContinueExecution()
. Removed Cpu6502()/Cpu65C02() check for debug breakpoints
. Removed the (undocumented) SHIFT+F7 feature to exit debugger for 'normal speed breakpoints'
. Removed the g_bDebugNormalSpeedBreakpoints variable
. Specifically IBIZA.DSK demo which streams data from the disk throughout (ie. so runs at full-speed all the time)
. Update the screen every frame, but only if video memory has changed (check AZTEC.DSK loading time)
. NB. When running at full-speed, then 6502 emulation doesn't do cycle-accurate video updates
Fixed crash that could occur when switch video mode (F9) when running at full-speed
. Occured when g_nVideoClockVert was >= 192
Fixed JoyUpdateButtonLatch() to debounce in 5mecs instead of 5secs!
SpkrToggle() was using redundant global ('cyclenum') when using the PC speaker.
. I reworked the code (as it looked out-of-date),
but probably better to just remove all the PC speaker support.
- allowed some simplification to VideoSetMode()
Tidy up ContinueExecution(), removing unused 'BOOL pageflipping'.
Refactor VideoCheckPage() to make it more readable.
