Classic99 399.072  Oct 3, 2024

• update cartpack for XBGem

Classic99 399.071  May 24, 2024

Classic99 399.070  April 19, 2024

• patch tunnels of doom for overdrive delay loop

Classic99 399.069  April 19, 2024

• Fix DF128 headerless detection when the FIAD path includes a period (was causing refusal to open)
• mute "Skipped 0 sentences on shut up" message (we don't care if it was 0)
• fixed case of DLL load on FilterDLL.dll and hq4xdll.dll for those running from case sensitive filesystems. (If you renamed the DLLs, you may have to rename them back).
• emit a warning in the debug log if loading a DSR to an invalid CRU base
• correct address wraparound in the 9901 address mapping
• add debug pin warning to debug log in the 9901 emulation (Classic99 does not support 9901 hardware interrupts)
• don't spam the same debug statement repeatedly to the log (note: no timeout. If you NEED to see a repeated statement, force another one inbetween. For instance, press Control to get the speech clear debug)
• also note the external debugger (debugview) is NOT filtered this way, so that you have best visibility there

Classic99 399.059 2022-06-08

• increase size of debug window
• add debug registers for SID and AMS
• Add option for 16-bit RAM mode (also affects AMS unfortunately)

• Update RXB and Jewel

Classic99 399.050 2021-09-24

• enhanced joystick configuration in config file
• added background noise emulation (enable in options->audio, sounds best at 44100hz)

Classic99 399.050 2021-07-22

• rewrote SpeechDLL using the latest code from MAME - now emulates the correct speech chip
• fixed bug with speech cpu halt that was causing crashes - broken in 399.037
• reworked the audio buffering as well for speech, now uses the audio jitter buffer. This may add some latency but fixes the froggy sound
• updated cartpack.dll just to remove the TE2 speech warning

Classic99 399.049 21 Jul 2021

• add "enableEscape" to INI file, so the escape key can be disabled (github only release)

Classic99 399.043 2021-04-13

Classic99 399.039 2021-02-27

• update fbForth to v13
• update RXB to 2020D
• Fix missed breakpoints that come too close together after pressing F1 to continue
• very basic and mostly broken TIPI simulation (NOT emulation!!). No bug reports on this will be entertained.

Classic99 399.038 2021-02-18

• added autodetection of ROM cartridge boot bank
• add better guesses on C.BIN versus 8.BIN versus nothing

Drunkman (1986, Zabatinni)

Classic99 399.037 2021-01-11

• Rewrote memory system to improve read-before-write cycle counting
• Corrected timing on stcr, ab,sb,socb,szcb,xop,b, and bl

Classic99 399.036 2021-01-03

• Fix bug in SBR_FILEOUT - was always setting bytes in last sector to 0

Classic99 399.035 2021-01-02

• Add SBR_FILEOUT to the disk images (BETA!! MAKE BACKUPS)

Classic99 399.034 2021-01-02

• Fix post-increment bug in the CPU code, self-referencing indirect post-increment now works correctly

Classic99 399.033 / 2020-11-26

Don't patch in the hacky disk tracking into VRAM when CALL FILES(0) is active - fixes Atlantis

Classic99 399.032 / 2020-11-02

• minor tweaks to make it build in 64-bit, but the 64 bit build is not going to be released
• move the check for "pause when window inactive" to reduce slowdown
• popcart CRU emulation
• set VDP interrupt and alpha lock CRU in 9901
• 60fps in all places (found a place still set to 62hz)
• set audio buffer to DAC level rather than assume 0
• more disk DSR sanity checks

Classic99 391.19 / 2020-08-04

• fix GROM access to console GROMs from banks larger than Classic99 supports also mask cartridge access in those cases instead of outright rejecting the access some future todo notes added

Classic99 / 2020-07-15

• Added View->Log Disasm to Disk to the Debug menu
• Some work on SID debug but it's not visible yet
• proper line counting in the debug output, so the cursor stays where it's supposed to bugfix so that CLOSE doesn't return an error on devices without FLUSH (like CLOCK)

Classic99 / 2020-06-14

• Add reset for timer statistics
• add CycleCounts.txt output after timer block
• Fix opening manual and disks for non-English Windows

Classic99 / 2020-05-02

• fix disk full on image disks (would just keep overwriting the same sector)
• fix crash bug in debug of writing very large files
• fix recorded length of variable-length record files (would be off by 1)
• fix reporting of errors on CLOSE (/all/ disk types suffered here)
• updated Tunnels of Doom in CartPack to describe how to load the built-in games

 (2020-04-29

• add some missing closes to the disk image handling. should've RAI
• add full directory sort when writing to a disk image to fix old broken images (this should also fix rename from the last update, but nobody had time to notice it was broken yet)
• all the fixes made to saving FIAD headers never made it into disk images: bytes in last header and number record field were both wrong for variable type files
• added disk size verification to TICC handler because the TICC doesn't check like I thought it did and PEOPLE ARE NOT PAYING ATTENTION TO DOCUMENTED RESTRICTIONS.

Classic99 388.018 (2020-03-19)

• Make the disk name more consistent on FIAD disks - it wasn't always returning just the folder or just 10 chars
• Make getting the disk name from a disk image not leak a file handle ;)

Classic99 388.017 (2020-03-11)

• added the ability to save cart (and DSR) space in MakeCart for EA#5 and EA#3

• fix for fragments files on image disks

• Add AMS register dump in debugger (type 'ams' and view debug log - hacky but functional)

• Add masking to debugger memory accesses - was potential crash point
• Changed CPU register access to require
