                    445:  ---------------------------
                    446: 
                    447: Emulation:
                    448: - TT video emulation :
                    449:   - Extend the ST palette registers from 9bit to 12bit for ST modes
                    450:   - Duochrome mode instead of monochrome for ST High
                    451:   - Implementation of SampleHold in TT Hypermono video mode
                    452: - Sound changes :
                    453:   - Better model of the YM2149 noise generation (no noticeable audible impact)
                    454:   - Slightly better volume table (measured by Paulo Simoes on a real ST)
                    455: - CPU changes :
                    456:   - Added experimental MMU emulation for the 68030 mode
                    457:   - Handle the IACK cycles during an exception for HBL/VBL
                    458: - ACIA/IKBD changes :
                    459:   - Full implementation of the MC6850 ACIA, giving much more robust
                    460:     IKBD emulation
                    461:   - Better timings for all IKBD commands (measured on a real STF)
                    462:   - Clock is handled internally in IKBD, host date/time is used
                    463:     only to initialize RTC at boot.  I.e. pausing emulation doesn't
                    464:     cause time skips when unpausing
                    465:   - Fix slow mouse when absolute mode is used with scale values
                    466: - MFP changes :
                    467:   - Fixed priority errors when simultaneous interrupts happened
                    468:   - MFP's IRQ should be delayed by 4 cycles before reaching the CPU
                    469:   - MFP's IRQ signal was not correctly updated in some cases
                    470:   - Handle the IACK cycles between CPU and MFP during an exception
                    471: - FDC changes :

                    473:   - Emulate the disk's rotation and its angular position to get
                    474:     accurate delays when accessing a sector header
                    475:   - Internal timer for FDC was wrong and sometimes slower than expected
                    476:   - Correct delay for type I commands with "verify" bit=1
                    477: - GEMDOS HD emulation changes :
                    478:   - Support Fforce() for GEMDOS HD emulated files and close at Pterm*()
                    479:     all internal handles to emulated files program had left open
                    480:   - Fix: cut file and dir names to 8+3 chars like all TOS versions do
                    481:   - Fix: GEMDOS HD emulation overwrote last 28 bytes of basepage space
                    482:     for the started process command line (with the program header)
                    483:   - Fix: Fwrite() content wasn't flushed to disk on each write, so later
                    484:     Fopen() + Fread()s calls on such files (if they were not closed
                    485:     in the meanwhile) could get data that was out of date.
                    486:   - Fix: Dfree() return value
                    487: 
                    488: Emulator:
                    489: - Fix: problems with run-time CPU type changing
                    490: - Fix: MIDI IRQs were not enabled if MIDI was enabled at run-time.
                    491:   MIDI toggling will now imply reset
                    492: - Much improved console redirection functionality and a separate --conout
                    493:   option for it (--bios-intercept doesn't anymore imply console redirection)
                    494: - Fixed a bug with the axes' mapping in the joystick's detection
                    495: - Display handling:
                    496:   - Fix: max resolution limit wasn't handled properly for ST mode.
                    497:   - Don't change TOS-calculated font size for VDI mode.
                    498:   - Setup NVRAM video mode based on VDI mode, when in VDI mode.
                    499:     This makes VDI mode work with EmuTOS also under Falcon emulation
                    500:     which is useful as EmuTOS doesn't support native VIDEL expanders
1.1.1.20  root      501:   - Limit VDI screen memory usage to 300kB, this allows up to 2048x1200
1.1.1.18  root      502:     monochrome and 1024x600/800x768 16-color VDI screens
                    503: - GEMDOS HD emulation:
                    504:   - Fix: to DTA host filename cutting to 8+3 chars when whole filename
                    505:     was < 12 chars (caused EmuTOS crash)
                    506:   - Give warning if GEMDOS dir/file path exceeds 8+3 characters
                    507:     (as those won't work with real TOS)
                    508:   - New --gemdos-case option to specify whether new dir/filenames
                    509:     are forced to be created in upper (default) or lower case
                    510:   - Giving empty string as GEMDOS HD dir disables GEMDOS HD emulation
                    511: - SDL GUI:
                    512:   - Fileselector has "CWD" button for changing to Hatari's work directory
                    513:   - Fileselector remembers previous position which is nicer with
                    514:     large directories
                    515:   - Make the drive leds blink with a brighter green when the FDC is executing
                    516:     a command
                    517: - Profiler:
                    518:   - Fix: profiler assert on invalid PC register values
                    519:   - Fix: profiler usage in debugger files invoked by breakpoints
                    520:   - Fix: profiler CPU & DSP cycles information is for previous instruction
                    521:   - Fix: WinUAE CPU requires cycles counter usage for getting current
                    522:     CPU instruction cycles
                    523:   - Profiler provides timing information, based on used cycles
                    524:   - Profiler provides CPU instruction cache misses information when using
                    525:     cycle-exact WinUAE CPU core (which is Falcon emu default)
                    526:   - Profiler top instruction count/cycles/misses lists show
                    527:     the related instructions

                    530:     code passed during profiling (e.g. while program seems frozen, this
                    531:     gives much better overview of code that is being run, than cpu trace)
                    532:   - New "callers" subcommand lists all addresses from which loaded
                    533:     symbols' addresses were "called" from.  This way one can e.g. find
                    534:     in which contexts interrupt handlers were called and it can be
                    535:     used to construction program execution callgraph
                    536:   - New "save" subcommand saves profile address and caller information
                    537:     to given file, with extra information needed for post-processing
                    538:   - New "stack" subcommand that can be used to get backtraces during
                    539:     profiling with symbols, for ':noinit' backtraces
                    540: - Debugger:
                    541:   - New ':noinit' and ':quiet' breakpoint options.  Quiet option
                    542:     removes most of breakpoint matching "noise" and ':noinit' breakpoints
                    543:     can be used with "profile stack" command, to prevent profile data and
1.1.1.20  root      544:     related callstack information from being reset on breakpoint match
1.1.1.18  root      545:   - "blitter" and "dsp" subcommand added to "info" command, to show
                    546:     blitter register values and DSP state (e.g. stack content)
                    547:   - "prg" subcommand added to "symbols" command, for loading debug
                    548:     symbols from DRI/GST symbol table in last started program
                    549:   - "step" and "next" commands added for single stepping CPU and DSP code
                    550:     -> 's' shortcut is now for "step", not "save"
                    551:   - "--disasm" option for selecting between UAE core and external CPU
                    552:     code dissassembler and setting output option flags for latter
                    553:   - When -D option is used, also undefined/illegal DSP instructions and
                    554:     DSP stack under/overflows invoke debugger, not just CPU issues
                    555:   - Fix: when several breakpoints should have triggered
                    556:          on the same address, only first was handled
                    557:   - Fix: after breakpoint, 'c <n>' continues one instruction too little
                    558:   - Fix: tracking breakpoint values were updated only when all conditions
                    559:     matched, now they can be also used together with other conditions
                    560:   - Fix: info command crash (triggered on NetBSD)
                    561:   - Fix: disassember output bug on NetBSD (usigned char < -1 test)
                    562:   - Fix: info osheader and basebase subcommands under MiNT
                    563:   - Fix: debugger history duplicates removal
                    564:   - Fix: expression expanding CPU "pc" for DSP shortcut commands
                    565:   - Fix: expression expansion messing lines in command line history
                    566:   - Remote API debugger commands can also use expression expansion
                    567:   - Both single and double quotes can be used to mark expressions
                    568:   - In addition to text section offset, data and bss section offsets
                    569:     can be given when loading symbols (useful for Devpac symbols)
                    570:   - Output what value was set by options if it's not otherwise shown by UI
                    571:   - New 'cpu' and 'dsp' options to 'history' command for tracing just
                    572:     one of these processors on Falcon
                    573:   - Function arguments are shown in traces for all non-MiNT GEMDOS calls
                    574:     and subset of arguments are now shown also for AES calls (values in
                    575:     intin array and strings in addrin array)
                    576:   - Add NVRAM read & write tracing
                    577:   - Support for the basic Native Features and --natfeats option to control it:
                    578:     http://wiki.aranym.org/natfeats/proposal
                    579: 
                    580: Windows specific changes:
                    581: - "-W" option added for opening a console window.  Like on all other platforms,
                    582:   "-D" will now just toggle CPU exception handling
                    583: - Fix: console stderr redirection (used invalid "wr" mode)
                    584: - Fix Windows localtime() not supporting dates before 1970:
                    585:   - TOS not being able to access files with such dates, or further files
                    586:   - causing IKBD emulation crashes (wasn't problem with Cygwin,
                    587:     just with Mingw builds)
                    588: 
                    589: Tool updates:
                    590: - New hatari-profiler.py script for post-processing output from
                    591:   profiler's CPU and DSP profiling "save" commands:
                    592:        profile save <filename>
                    593:        dspprofile save <filename>

                    601:   files to a format understood by Hatari debugger 'symbols' command,
                    602:   and to clean 'nm' output of GCC & VBCC built a.out binaries for it
                    603: 
                    604: Other changes:
                    605: - HTML documentation indeces generated dynamically with JS
                    606: - Debugger tests building fixed
                    607:

                    836: Emulation:
                    837: - Alternative CPU core based on WinUAE for more accurate future
                    838:   HW interaction emulation (see readme.txt on how to enable it)
                    839: - Use precise clocks values (as described in Atari's official schematics)
                    840:   for better video/dma audio synchronisation (e.g. More Or Less Zero by DHS)
                    841: - DSP:
                    842:   - Some DSP-timing sensitive Falcon demos that by luck happened to work
                    843:     with Hatari v1.4, don't work anymore in v1.5 with the default UAE CPU
                    844:     core.  This is because while DSP cycle accuracy has been improved,
                    845:     the default UAE CPU core isn't fully cycle accurate.  The experimental
                    846:     WinUAE core is needed to run them
                    847:   - Undocumented 2 bit shift special case for DSP SSI <-> crossbar exchanges
                    848:     in hanshake mode with 32 Mhz clock (fixes DSP MP2 player used in many
                    849:     demos & programs, but that requires also using WinUAE core)
                    850: - Sound improvements:

                    854:   - Improved precision in sound emulation, with nearly no rounding errors
                    855:     over successive VBL (correct sound latency on US TOS running at 60 Hz)
                    856:   - By default mix 3 YM voices using a lookup table of values
                    857:     measured on real STF to improve digisound (e.g. Flashback demo sound)
                    858:   - Remove old ST Sound's code used for tone and noise step compute
                    859:     (some low period values were not correctly emulated)

                    861:   - On STE, correctly shift display 8 pixels to the left when using
                    862:     224 bytes overscan
                    863:   - Add support for spec512 mode in med res (fixes 'Best Part Of The
                    864:     Creation' in 'Punish Your Machine', 'HighRes Mode' demo by Paradox)
                    865:   - Correctly shift the screen 4 pixels to the left when left border is removed
                    866:     in med res overscan (Hatari 1.4 handled only low res, fixes 'No Cooper'
                    867:     by 1984, 'Best Part Of The Creation' by Delta Force)
                    868:   - Precisely emulate the number of frames per sec (eg 50.053 fps in PAL
                    869:     instead of the usual 50 Hz)
                    870: 
                    871: Emulator:
