New Mini vMac: December 17, 2013

Post by ClockWise »

Mini vMac has been updated!

Here's the scoop:

" There were a number of bugs in the 68020 emulation (for Mac II) reported by “AP”. The BFFFO instruction was broken. And, all bit field operations on a register now use rotate rather than shift, as selected bits can be non contiguous. Bit field operations on memory now try to only operate on as many bytes as needed - previously it always operated on 5 bytes, which may have undesirable effects if operating on a memory mapped device. The “MoveP.L <ea>, Dn” instruction mixed up the order of shifting and masking.

Also, there are improvements to the SDL port. Color works (for Mac II emulation). There is more accurate mouse emulation in full screen mode. And the video output is more optimized. (The SDL port was created as a stepping stone to a native Cocoa port, but it can also be used as is to port to other platforms supported by SDL. Such as the TI-Nspire port by Jim Bauwens.)

The WinCE version can again be compiled. The code added to prevent Windows shut down wouldn't compile on WinCE and so has been made conditional. And one other fix is to allow color to work in the X Window versions when compiled with the magnify option disabled. "
