Uh.. this list has been very quiet lately..
For those who may have missed it:
PCAE 2.2
Main game menu can be configured to display filename and extension,
filename only, or real game title
Games can be highlighted by game type, alphabetically, or by alternating rows
Game menu colors can be changed for alternating modes
Main game screen can be displayed in 80x25 text mode, 80x30 text mode, or
high-resolution VESA graphics modes
Option for slightly more realistic Pitfall II music
Debugger supports breakpoint on symbolic equation
Major TIA fixes-emulation is much more accurate
Emulator settings moved to industry-standard .INI file
Completely new controller support allowing mouse, keyboard, and joystick
functions to be remapped
Fully re-mappable Gravis GrIP controller support (requires Gravis DOS
driver-see chapter 2)
Fully re-mappable Microsoft SideWinder controller support-can be expanded
to support future SideWinder controllers
PCAE and PCAE160 have been combined into a single executable
Additional game resolution modes for PAL games and greater compatibility
with various video cards
Several emulator bug fixes
Experimental program to assist in detecting new SideWinder controller
packet structures
Improved debugger online help
During emulation, pressing F8 allows the user to type in a game title.
Title, game type, controller information, and the vertical position (as set
with the plus and minus keys) are saved to the profile file. Thus the
emulator "remembers" where the last vertical position was set by the user.
Improved joystick calibration routine that should be more friendly to
"jittery" joysticks
Thrustmaster FCS, CH Flightstick Pro, and some multi-button gamepads
supported (all but the FCS are untested)
Improved external interface board design
Minus key in debugger moved to equals (plus) key, and also shows the CRT
horizontal position
Hitting the minus key in the debugger shows the positions of the player
objects, missiles, and ball (when the game screen is being displayed)
Slightly improved disassembler should be more compatible with backswitched
images
Ciao,
P.
