Cet émulateur est également le plus complet des outils de développements X68000 existant aujourd’hui. Il s’agit d’un fork de l’émulateur XM6 v2.05 de PI avec une pléthore de nouvelles fonctionnalités. Les changements sont pour la plupart liés à l’interface utilisateur et un accent a été mis sur le développement et les fonctions de débogage plutôt que sur l’exactitude de l’émulation, cependant il y a suffisamment d’améliorations pour qu’il soit recommandé d’utiliser cette version plutôt que XM6 v2.06 finale.
Les changements:
– The timing accuracy for CPU instructions was improved. This features comes with
a slight decrease in CPU emulation performance, but I doubt anyone will notice.
– The assembler dialog now loads the hexadecimal representation when the binary
data at the cursor is not a valid instruction. You can also force this behavior
by holding Control.
– The Unicode edition now has temporary options for saving state files,
useful for sharing with others or comparing with compatible programs:
« Sanitized » omits all file paths from state files to protect your privacy.
« Compatible » saves in XM6 2.06 format without RLE (same as the MBCS edition).
– Note that the strings for file paths will be converted to the local code page,
to the extent possible. This may result in missing files when loading the state
files if the Unicode paths couldn’t be mapped to the local code page, although
unless the destination PC uses a similar file system layout as the source PC,
the files referenced in the state file probably couldn’t have been found anyway.
Bug fixes:
– Fixed some more bugs in the CPU emulator. One step closer to perfection…
– Fixed an event timing error that only occurred in rare, predictable situations.
– State file cycling and browser menus were behaving a bit erratically since R77..
