VICE v1.14

posted in Emulator Release by mfc on Jan 30th, 2004

VICE, a Commodore 64 emulator for Windows, DOS and *nix, was updated today! Here's a list of what's new:

General

Audio and video streams can be recorded now. Unix users: Use configure parameter `--enable-ffmpeg'; make sure you have the required libraries installed (package ffmpeg-0.4.8 or newer).
Added IEC devices which allow to access printer or file system devices even if true drive emulation is enabled.

VIC-II

Fixed some severe sprite collision detection bugs.

Drive Changes

Increased the number of true drives to four.
Support for 1570 and 1571CR drives has been added (1571CR is not fully implemented though).
1581 emulation is much more accurate now

Printer Changes

Added Star NL10 printer emulation.

Unix Changes

Gnome UI:
- fixed resizing bug when PAL controls are hidden
- Improved PAL control widget
- Added Widgets for recording (Event, Audio/Video)
- Multiple drive widgets are now supported.

MS-Windows Changes

Added common peripherial devices, firmware ROM and IDE64 settings dialog.

MS-DOS Changes

The source code can be compiled with Allegro 4.0 now.
Added printer settings dialog.

Miscellaneous Changes

The standard output of petcat is switched to binary mode which prevents data corruption.
