1.1.1.6 ! root 7: Version 0.90 (2006-08-22):
! 8: --------------------------
! 9:
! 10: - Better Spectrum 512 support (60Hz support, improved I/O memory waitstates).
! 11: - STE right border opening support (used in Obsession, Pacemaker).
! 12: - Blitter Smudge mode support (used in Pacemaker demo).
! 13: - Wheel-mouse simulates cursor up and down.
! 14: - Work-around to FDC handling, --slow-fdc option is not anymore needed.
! 15: - Bugfix to MFP, sound works now in more YMRockerz releases.
! 16: - Bugfix to GEMDOS path handling (Hatari SIGSEGV).
! 17: - Bugfix to emulated memory initialization (4MB was cleared earlier, now
! 18: exactly the amount set up for Hatari. Saves memory on embedded systems
! 19: if less than 4MB is specified.)
! 20: - Re-written command-line option handling.
! 21: - (Again) lots of code const/static, type usage and indentation cleanup.
! 22: - Preliminary support for TOS 3.0x and 030 TT software that runs in ST
! 23: resolutions and doesn't need PMMU.
! 24: - Native GUI for Mac OSX.
! 25: - ACSI emulation fixes to get HD formatting to work with AHDI 5. HD emulation
! 26: now works quite fine with AHDI 5 (but other HD drivers are currently not
! 27: supported).
! 28: - Joystick shortcut changed to toggle cursor emulation between ports 0 and 1.
! 29: - Keys for all Hatari shortcuts can now be configured from hatari.cfg.
! 30: - Added command line option for setting ST keyboard mapping.
! 31: - Joystick command line option requires now parameter for a port for which
! 32: the joystick cursor emu is enabled.
! 33: - Fixed relative mouse event handling in zoomed low-rez.
! 34: - Hatari shows now more of the bottom borden (screen size is now 384x276
! 35: instead of 384x267).
! 36: - Fixed sync delay timings - sound should now be better (e.g. on Mac OS X).
! 37: - Added basic support for compiling Hatari with MinGW.
! 38:
! 39:

86: - Added a dialog for creating new blank floppy disk images.
87: - The source code has been optimized for better emulation speed.
88: - Added RS232 emulation (still very experimental and not very well tested! It
89: seems not to work reliable yet. Help for debugging is very appreciated!).
90: - Some bugs in the 68000 emulation have been fixed.
91: - The emulator now checks for double bus errors and stops the emulation if
92: necessary (instead of crashing the emulator).

95: better in high resolutions.
96: - The fonts are now linked into the executable.

98:
99:
100: Version 0.45 (2003-10-30):
101: --------------------------
102:
103: - This is just a minor release on the way to version 0.50. It is not very
104: well tested, so be warned!

119: - Configuration file support for loading and saving the emulator settings.
120: - Hatari now works on machines with Sparc CPUs, too.
121: - Fixed a problem that slowed down the emulator in monochrome mode when using
122: TOS 2.06.
123: - Inverted monochrome mode is now supported, too (some games like Maniac
124: Mansion use this).
125: - Added Mega-ST compatible real time clock (RTC) emulation.
126: - The GEMDOS HD emulation has been improved (it now also works with lower-case
127: file names) and many bugs have been fixed there.
128: - Improved keyboard mapping (added mapping via PC keyboard scancode and via
129: reloadable mapping files).
130: - The screen rendering routines have been generalized (less differences between
131: windowed and fullscreen mode).
132: - Hatari can now be cross-compiled, too. You can even compile it for MiNT now.
133: However, it does not run very well there yet.
134: - Support for RAM TOS images.
135: - Improved memory mapping (the different memory regions should now behave much
136: more like on a real ST).
137: - Improved M68k exceptions (bus errors and exception cycle timings).
138: - Fixed some bugs in the extended VDI resolution mode (now it is working with
139: EmuTOS, too).
140: - Some games that poll the write-protection signal of the FDC to check for
141: disk changes should now be working, too.
142:
143:
144: Version 0.30 (2003-03-12):
145: --------------------------
146:
147: - Some parts of the code accessed the SR directly to read the IPL -
148: however the UAE CPU core only updates the SR when doing a MakeSR() first.
149: So this is done in the affected code parts now, too.
150: - The IPL wasn't raised when a MFP interrupt occured - fixed now.
151: - Full screen resolution for ST-Low can now be selected from the screen setup
152: dialog.
153: - The IKBD emulation does not longer duplicate joystick fire buttons when
154: a game tries to use both, joystick and mouse
155: - Improved audio timer function - the code should now be a little bit faster.
156: - Resynced Hatari's UAE CPU core with UAE 0.8.22 - this fixes some bugs in 68k
157: instructions like ABCD and SBCD.
158: - Added patches for TOS 2.05 so that this TOS version should now work, too.
159: - Rewrote TOS patching routine. It is much more flexible now.
160: - Removed 0xa0ff opcode for VDI resolutions; using GEMDOS_OPCODE now instead.
161: - Fixed MMU RAM size configuration bug.
162: - Rewrote some more screen conversion functions in C.
163: - When a bus or address error occurred, the PC was often not set to the
164: right exception handler routine. This has been fixed now.
165:
166:
167: Version 0.25 (2002-12-30):
168: --------------------------

170: - Patches for big endian systems (Spectrum 512 pictures are now working there).
171: - Hatari now also compiles and runs under Mac OS X.
172: - Blitter emulation has been added.
173: - There is now the possibility to save YM or WAV sounds.
