CaPriCe32 is an Amstrad CPC emulator for Windows.

News:

- Rewrote all DirectX code to be more robust and error tolerant.

- The CPC screen is no longer being painted with hardware stretch blits by default, which should prevent the extreme slow-downs some users experienced.

- Caprice32 now goes to sleep when loosing focus or getting minimized: CPU usage drops to zero.

- Emulation can now be switched between windowed and full-screen mode. Full-Screen mode is user defined in resolution and bit depth.

- Switched to a different timing mechanism which keeps the emulator running closer to the original speed than before.

- Fixed sound playback - pops and clicks during playback should now be a thing of the past.

- Emulator Configuration is once again being stored in a file in the emulator directory and no longer in the Registry.

- New screen rendering methods: scanlines, line doubling (software), and line doubling (hardware).

- New speed selector in the Options dialog: the emulator speed can now be fixed at multiples of the original CPC speed.

- Added the option of colour and green monitor.

- Added error condition checks to zip, DSK and SNApshot routines.

- Added a modified DSK check at emulator exit so user won't loose their work.

- Implemented a completely new way to manage input: users can now map the CPC joysticks to any keyboard key or other connected control device, in any combination. See the updated documentation for more details.

- Mouse cursor now auto-hides to be less obtrusive.

- Support for French and Spanish keyboard layouts.

- Some fixes to the Z80 OUT handler involving the GA colour palette and PPI Port C.

- Added support for CDT tapes: still some work to be done here, as most SpeedLock protected games fail to load! Enjoy in moderation...

- Added 48 and 96 kHz sound playback options - high frequency notes and "buzzing" tones sound _much_ better now!

- Added a Frames Per Second display so users can judge how fast the emulation is actually running.

Raine is a arcade emulator for Windows, DOS & Linux.

News:

* source/games/xsystem2.c: fix coin bugs in plumppop and tnzs by taking the "mcu simulation" from mame. Interesting code, by the way...

* source/: profile.h, alleg/profile.c, gui/about.c: show an estimation of your cpu frequency in the about dialog (?! icon) after you have loaded at least one game.

* source/games/macrossp.c: fix company, add more cycles to avoid slow downs, and fix non transparent sprites (are there really some ?)

* source/games/hyperpcb.c: hyperpac is now working (thanks to mame for the "mcu simulation" !) Also, speed hacks for hyperpac and hyperpcb are now working correctly.

* source/games/default.c: force recalibration of the rdtsc timer everytime we run a new game. This fixes bad music speed of some games when you had run outzone as your first game in raine.

* source/: sound/sasound.h, alleg/sasound.c, alleg/soundcfg.c, seal/sasound.c: remove all the low level sound parameters from raine.cfg, and put safe values in the source instead (I hope these ones are safe at least !).

* source/games/gunbird.c: fix the bad colours in s1945 demo. It was because the sprites need to be delayed by 2 frames.

* source/timer.c: fix a very bad bug with periodic timers. It fixes music speed in tengai and strikers 1945.

* source/config.c: display info about 16bpp games (in -listinfo)

* source/games/nmk.c: - remove useless draw_acrobatm and fix bad sprites (in acrobatm, but maybe it affects other games too).

- fix -listinfo for tdragon2 and macross2

- fix bad layer in acrobatm (alignement ?)

- add function keys F5-F8 to toggle manually layers (for those who are inteerested !).
