Commodore plus/4 emulation on Pocket PC! 07/04/2006

 

Pocket PC owners, that wait is over! In the last couple of months I have been busy revamping my Yape emulator for the Pocket PC platform: a real challenge! Although the Pocket PC's are getting ever more powerful, their CPU is still only comparable to that of the desktop PC's of the late '90s. Still managed to achieve a very good speed and compatibility. It will also support today's most advanced VGA devices in their native 480x640 resolution.

 

Here's a list of features:

 

* Full 7501 (CPU) emulation:

* all documented & undocumented opcodes,

* 100% correct decimal mode,

* instruction/cycle exact emulation.

* Video/Sound (TED) emulation: very fast Line-based emulation, all display modes, open and expanded borders, DMA cycles, some FLI modes, FLD effects, Timer and raster interrupts, raster line exact hardware cursor & flash, 2 channel sound supporting digi.

* Full ROM banking, support for the built-in C+4 programs

* Full joystick and keyboard emulation

* DOS-based 1551 drive emulation

* Support for.prg,.p00 and cartridges

* Support for true VGA resolution

* Redefinable d-pad

* Sticky keyboard option

* Expanded full screen modes for optimal display usage.

* Support for native and software landscape modes

* Full menus and keyboard controls in landscape mode.

* Full save/load emulator state support

* External keyboard support

 

Good news is that Commodore Inc has officially endorsed this product, so it is going to be released as "the" Pocket Commodore plus/4.
