Q-emuLator Updated
Q-emuLator is a multi-platform Sinclair QL emulator. The new version is 2.33, and here's what's new in it:
- Keyboard emulation is now compatible with Windows dead keys when using Sinclair or Minerva ROMs.- Completed keyboard emulation for non-standard QL ROMs.
- Q-emuLator now accepts non-standard ROMs up to 80KB long, and expansion ROMs up to 32KB long.
- Fixed microdrive copy protection emulation (it was failing on fast PCs).
- Improved user manual in PDF format (courtesy of Phoebus Dokos).
- Added setup program to install/uninstall Q-emuLator.
- New trap to allow QL programs to close the emulator.
- Relative paths can now be used to specify the location of ROMs, PC directories and QXL.WIN files. The emulator is now also partially resistant to files being moved around. For example, if you change the PC drive letter for the hard disk containing the emulator executable and your QL software, in many cases Q-emuLator will still be able to find your QL software, even if the.qcf configuration file still specifies the old disk drive letter.
Virtual GameBoy Advance 3.0 Released
The multi-platform GameBoy Advance emulator has just received a significant update, and here's what Marat Fayzullin said about this release on the official web site:
This is the major Virtual GameBoy Advance release. Since this release, the VGBA-Windows runs in both full screen (using DirectDraw) and windowed modes. There are fixes to the CPU and BIOS emulation, waveform sound channels, and video rendering routines. For example, the sound stuttering and the occasional sprite flicker problems are now gone. The complete list of features and the list of new features and fixes can be found in the documentation.
I have also started adding Nintendo DS features to VGBA, such as the second ARM9 CPU and the cartridge loader. This work is far from complete though, so do not expect VGBA to run Nintendo DS programs right away. Because of these changes, the save state file format (.STA) has been changed again.
