1.1.1.2 root 36: Version 0.50 (2004-07-26):
37: --------------------------
38:
39: - A lot of internal code cleanup and bug fixes.
40: - Added a dialog for creating new blank floppy disk images.
41: - The source code has been optimized for better emulation speed.
42: - Added RS232 emulation (still very experimental and not very well tested! It
43: seems not to work reliable yet. Help for debugging is very appreciated!).
44: - Some bugs in the 68000 emulation have been fixed.
45: - The emulator now checks for double bus errors and stops the emulation if
46: necessary (instead of crashing the emulator).
47: - Timer-D is now patched correctly again.
48: - The old font has been replaced by two new fonts so that the GUI now looks
49: better in high resolutions.
50: - The fonts are now linked into the executable.
51: - Added support for DIM floppy disk images.
52:
53:
54: Version 0.45 (2003-10-30):
55: --------------------------
56:
57: - This is just a minor release on the way to version 0.50. It is not very
58: well tested, so be warned!
59: - New build system (with a "configure" shell script).
60: - A disc image destroying bug in the MSA compression function has been fixed.
61: - It is now possible to redirect the printer output into a file.
62: - Experimental MIDI output support.
63: - Added the possibility to save memory snap shots.
64: - Pending HBL and VBL interrupts are now emulated correctly (I hope).
65: - Some speed improvements.
66: - GEMDOS HD emulation now also works with EmuTOS.
67:
68:
1.1 root 69: Version 0.40 (2003-07-11):
70: --------------------------
71:
72: - Support for ZIP and GZIP compressed disk images!
73: - Configuration file support for loading and saving the emulator settings.
74: - Hatari now works on machines with Sparc CPUs, too.
75: - Fixed a problem that slowed down the emulator in monochrome mode when using
76: TOS 2.06.
77: - Inverted monochrome mode is now supported, too (some games like Maniac
78: Mansion use this).
79: - Added Mega-ST compatible real time clock (RTC) emulation.
80: - The GEMDOS HD emulation has been improved (it now also works with lower-case
81: file names) and many bugs have been fixed there.
82: - Improved keyboard mapping (added mapping via PC keyboard scancode and via
83: reloadable mapping files).
84: - The screen rendering routines have been generalized (less differences between
85: windowed and fullscreen mode).
86: - Hatari can now be cross-compiled, too. You can even compile it for MiNT now.
87: However, it does not run very well there yet.
88: - Support for RAM TOS images.
89: - Improved memory mapping (the different memory regions should now behave much
90: more like on a real ST).
91: - Improved M68k exceptions (bus errors and exception cycle timings).
92: - Fixed some bugs in the extended VDI resolution mode (now it is working with
93: EmuTOS, too).
94: - Some games that poll the write-protection signal of the FDC to check for
95: disk changes should now be working, too.
96:
97:
98: Version 0.30 (2003-03-12):
99: --------------------------
100:
101: - Some parts of the code accessed the SR directly to read the IPL -
102: however the UAE CPU core only updates the SR when doing a MakeSR() first.
103: So this is done in the affected code parts now, too.
104: - The IPL wasn't raised when a MFP interrupt occured - fixed now.
105: - Full screen resolution for ST-Low can now be selected from the screen setup
106: dialog.
107: - The IKBD emulation does not longer duplicate joystick fire buttons when
108: a game tries to use both, joystick and mouse
109: - Improved audio timer function - the code should now be a little bit faster.
110: - Resynced Hatari's UAE CPU core with UAE 0.8.22 - this fixes some bugs in 68k
111: instructions like ABCD and SBCD.
112: - Added patches for TOS 2.05 so that this TOS version should now work, too.
113: - Rewrote TOS patching routine. It is much more flexible now.
114: - Removed 0xa0ff opcode for VDI resolutions; using GEMDOS_OPCODE now instead.
115: - Fixed MMU RAM size configuration bug.
116: - Rewrote some more screen conversion functions in C.
117: - When a bus or address error occurred, the PC was often not set to the
118: right exception handler routine. This has been fixed now.
119:
120:
121: Version 0.25 (2002-12-30):
122: --------------------------
123:
124: - Patches for big endian systems (Spectrum 512 pictures are now working there).
125: - Hatari now also compiles and runs under Mac OS X.
126: - Blitter emulation has been added.
127: - There is now the possibility to save YM or WAV sounds.
128: - Big VDI resolutions (e.g. 800x600) are now supported, too.
129:
130:
131: Version 0.20 (2002-02-18):
132: --------------------------

192: Desktop shows up, but no mouse and keyboard interaction yet.
193:
194:
