Version 10.3 - La Abadia del Crimen edition. 10 May 2023
There are lots of changes in this version, but some of them are remarkable:
The full changelog for this version 10.3 is:
Added Machine Amstrad PCW 8256 Added Machine Amstrad PCW 8512 Added Machine Amstrad CPC 6128 Added Machine Amstrad CPC 664 Added Visual Floppy to see floppy disk (+3, CPC, PCW, Betadisk) activity Added DSK disk info menu: to get tracks and sectors of a disk Added F-Functions: Poke, Visual Real Tape, Settings, Switch footer Added Process Switcher window, which is like a "Taskbar" on the ZX Desktop Added ZRCP command: "close-all-menus" Added icon/F-key to open any window identified by its name Allow F-keys to assign extra info for actions (like window name on openwindow action, or snapshot name on linktosnapshot action) Added more Hotswap combinations Added Advanced menu items: now by default, advanced menu items are hidden, you should enable them on Settings->Advanced menu items Added command line setting --machinelist to get machines list names whitespace separated Added .POK file Smartloading Added XEyes "Toy" to follow mouse Added Sierpinsky Meter Type to View Sensors
Improved Debug CPU:
Improved Debug Console: better refresh, dynamic width Improved Debug Messages: allow to filter by message class (DSK, PD765, etc...) Improved Debug I/O ports window: autoresize content height when do not fit in window
Improved Configuration:
Improved DSK viewer:
Improved View Sprites:
Improved ZX Desktop:
Improved ZX Vision:
Improved DSK extractor: better filesystem detection Improved ZSF Snapshots: allow to save ROM contents, useful when running custom roms Improved File selector: can show recent folders (press space on recent files) Improved changing pointer on some windows: can use an expression when changing memory pointer on Debug CPU, View Sprites, Hexdump, Disassemble, Poke Improved changing to machines with big displays (Next, QL, CPC...): zoom is autochanged to 1 Improved joystick type selection Improved Raspberry Pi emulation: performance parameters are not changed by default anymore, you must use "--changeslowparameters" on slow Rpi like Rpi1 or 2
Fixed Spectrum +3 disk emulation: the disk emulation layer has been rewritten from scratch and now is near perfect. Just some statistics from testing 943 total Spectrum +3 disks: -Unprotected games: 98.3 % working -Paul Owens protected games: 85.7 % working -Speedlock protected games: 54.2 % working -Alkatraz protected games: 0 % working -Unknown method protected games: 0 % working (a total of 15 disks that seem to be protected but don't know the method)
Fixed almost all annoying audio clicks on Windows version (and on SDL audio driver on Linux) Fixed empty results when querying some games on Speccy online browser Fixed random crash on startup on Linux when executing some network operations (check updates, check last users, send updates) Fixed segfaults when exiting using CTRL-C Fixed autoload on Spectrum +3 Fixed bug that may crash ZEsarUX when changing to a machine with bigger resolution. It seems to affect Linux and Windows but not Mac. This is a bug that has always existed (a "long life bug" XD) Fixed showing creator on DSK file viewer Fixed pause: can now return when pressing mouse button too Fixed assembler parsing expressions (NN) and NN is an hexadecimal number Fixed debug step over and sending keys to emulated machine Fixed setting "set machine snap load" when loading .Z80 version 1 snapshots Fixed real joystick menu disabled on Mac OS when switching border Fixed putting Text Adventure Map window on background
Persistent writes on DSK files (+3/CPC/PCW disks) are now disabled by default
