Minor update for SNASM V3.1.1 - I didn't realise it was so out of date.
Fixed bug where it didn’t report undefined symbols
Added SNA export back in (48k and 128k)
Fixed a bug with Macro usage in the first ASM file
Fixed 6502 assembling – and PRG export
Added “SET” back in for 6502 (can also use DEF)
Put in an error when defining a label called “Filesize”
Added 45GS02 CPU core for mega65 (opt 45gs02)
Added “ADCQ”, “ANDQ”, “ASLQ”.
Added CLD after all 32Bit instructions as “work around” for HW bug
Fixed “INC A” and “DEC A” instructions
Fixed a crash trying to read a file from a non-existant directory
#CSpect V2.16.0 changes
Lots of fixes and a few new additions. Improved the new divMMC autopaging for directly loaded NEX files. Added the -mouse option to try and help MAC users a little, and also fixed up the copper when large DMA blocks were running. A nice new feature is being able to visualise both copper and Raster IRQ splits using CTRL+ALT+S (via the copper plugin). Even for non-devs, this is a funky little tool to show just how complex things can get!
Added directory functions to RST$08 plugin
Fixed screen rendering time a little.
on .NEX load, regs $B8-$BB are set to $82,$00,$00,$F0 - same as the OS.
Added reg $0A = bit 2, to be able to disable DivMMC auto mapping
Fixed crash when typing "BR :" in debugger
Added a "-mouse" command line option. This will disable the "grabbing" of the mouse.
When specifying an SD card image, you no longer have to specify -zxnext and -nextrom on the command line as well
Fixed Copper when the DMA is running and blocking CPU, now counts DMA "TStates" instead of CPU ones
.NEX files will automatically disable DivMMC PC address memory mapping
Added -divmap command line, so you can force memory mapping of the DIVMMC "on" when directly loading a .NEX file
Fixed a raster interrupt issue
Added -copwait command line so you can easily visualise where the copper splits are
Added -irqwait command line so you can easily visualise where the raster irq splits are
You can now toggle the copper and irq visualiser with CTRL+ALT+S via the copper disassembler plugin
You can now "set" command line globals via the Plugin interface
Updated so that the very latest OS now works by adding new Next Registers $B8-$BB, along with a few updates, changes and fixes.
Also please note, if you take over the "whole" machine to haved a full RAM machine, you will now need to set registers $B8-$BB to be able to jump to address $0000, or the DivMMC may well page in.
DeZogPlugin added to main distro so it remains upto date.
Added stackless NMI support
Reset register $02 added
Added NextRegs $B8 to $BB for DivMMC direct paging control
Current ROM and DivMMC registers added to rewind history
F6 now cycles through turbo speed settings
F5 Now takes a screen shot (was on CTRL+F3)
Fixed a rendering glitch when estimates for the right HBlank timing are "missed" and the line isn't drawn.
-log_cpu removed. Rewind probably replaces the need for this.
Updated RST$08 read/write to return values in BC,HL and DE as described in NextZXOS
Layer 2 banks can now be in the full 2Mb (regs $12 and $13)
Parallax demo updated to work with new $B8-$BA registers
A few fixes and some new features, and I've also added in a beta of my SD Card Editor, allowing you to easily copy files off the SD card using a nice explorer sty;e window.
I will also draw peoples attention to the new analytics that have been added. I've been wondering where I should direct my effort, so this is trying to get a feel for how people are using it. It's mainly startup counters, major function key presses, and command line options. There is a switch to disable if you feel uncomfortable, but please keep it enabled if you can, it'll help the future of the emulator. I may also share some stats in the future as I'm sure folk will be interested in usage numbers etc...
Minor update V2.14.3
Fixed BIS and Warhawk crash
Odd crash with last version, rebuilding zip to try and fix
Now alerts you to a new version
Did more sprite window fixes
Altered FLASH rendering
Minor update V2.14.1
Added a check for AY regs above 16, as a common music driver has a bug in it
Timers are now reset on F3
IRQ TStates are reset back to 30 Pre-Tstates. This isn't correct but helps some games work better.
Stopped a crash on exit from fullscreen
Changes V2.14.0
Fixed esxDOS Read/Write so it's now returning NEXT pointer IX instead of HL.
You no longer need to extract ROM files to run in full SD card mode, they will be copied out the SD card image directly.
Sprite right edge clip fixed - I think.
AY registers are now readable
Some very basic analytics are now collected. Each startup, command line options etc. "-analytics" to disable. Please leave it on if you can, as it'll help me direct developement effort.
I have added my new SDCardEditor into the archive. This is very much just a beta, but lets you easy copy files from the SD card. Full editing coming on this.
The latest windows update now causes some nasty stalling. To reduce (but not remove), go into "settings" and search for "game mode" and switch it off. This will help a little.
Note: I am aware most virus scanners are rejecting this. Apparently it's because I open files in "shared" read/write mode. This is so that SD cards can still be written to while the emulator is running. You'll need to add an exception if you wish to use it.
This is a special 'experimental' release so that everyone can try out the new "rewind" feature in the debugger. Specifying -rewind on the command line, or typing 'REWIND' in the debugger will enable/disable it.
This will then let you step 'backwards' using SHIFT+F7, undoing whatever the CPU has just exectued. Memory and CPU state should be solid (along with MMU and ROM usage), and I've started to add in sprite access as well - but this is more untested.
It's good fun, and super handy for debugging when you need to just roll back a little bit....
Fixed physical breakpoints in the plugins
(Highly) Experiminetal "rewind" debugger feature. Simply press SHIFT+F7 to step back. Currently tracks all RAM access and Sprite port access.There's bound to be HEAPs of issues and bugs with this, but for simple debugging, it should be fine.
Added UnStep in plugin system
Added "REWIND" debugger command, to allow you to switch the CPU history on/off dynamically
Added Debugger message display. Now reports errors when you use a non-existant label etc.
RAM is now filled with random bytes on power up to help simulate the real machine
-fill=$XXXXX allows you top specify a specific byte sequence to fill RAM with
Debugger: general layout adjustment.
Debugger: text colour changes when user bar over the top for easier reading
Debugger: $ added to all hex numbers
Debugger: Hex numbers are now coloured for easier spotting
Debugger: Added "peek()" of all memory access to the left of the disassembly line
Debugger: Added 16bit "peek()" of all 16bit register load/store locations
Debugger: Added a small permanent memory dump using 16bit registers as the base address
Debugger: ` now displays the current screen in the debugger (Keypad-Enter also works)
Debugger: Memory window bookmarks added. CTRL+SHIFT+[0-9] to set, CTRL+[0-9] to jump to.
CSpect should now run on 32bit and 64bit machines
Now detects if the shader fails to compile, and switches off the shader mode
Fixed port $123b 16k bank offset mode
Fixed unified attached sprites
#SNasm V3.0.3
Brand new C# version, which will now run on Linux and macOS. I'm sure there are still bugs in here, so released for community testing. It assembles everything I've got, so should be fine.
