ZEsarUX Emulator

[Shiny]

It appears that line interrupts for tsconf are not working. I gave permission to distribute my demos, but it turns out that bad emulation only disgraces me. I would like a better emulation of sinclair ql and mk -14

Line interrupts: they are working but not perfect
Better emulation of QL & MK 14: I would like it to be better too

Hi!

I have uploaded a new ZEsarUX 8.1 BETA version. You can download compiled versions for Windows, Mac, and the source code from:


https://github.com/chernandezba/zesa...g/8.1-07112019

Changelog is:

Added ZEsarUX Network Gaming protocol (ZENG), which allows you to play to any emulated game, using two ZEsarUX instances,
located each one on any part of the world or in a local network. Games doesn't have to be modified, you can use any existing game

Added Pentagon 16C colour mode emulation
Added 1024 KB RAM emulation for Spectrum & Pentagon
Added support for .scl files: can be converted from file selector menu pressing space
Added SNA saving support
Added PZX tape file support
Added ZX81 online game browser
Added Spectrum online game browser
Added total run time statistics
Added checking for updates
Added sending anonymous statistics use
Added setting --disablemenuandexit: it closes the emulator when the menu is going to be opened.
It's the same behaviour as previous --disablemenu. Now --disablemenu only disables the menu but does not close the emulator

Added Borland Gui Style

Added ZRCP commands:
-cpu-code-coverage: working with code coverage
-cpu-history: working with cpu history
-get-ui-io-ports: to get keyboard state and joystick
-get-snapshot: get a ZSF snapshot from ZRCP
-print-footer: print message on footer
-put-snapshot: put a ZSF snapshot from ZRCP
-send-keys-event: simulates key press/release
-set-ui-io-ports: to change keyboard state and joystick
-write-port: write value to a port

Added internal zip decompressor: no more need to use external unzip program
Added setting to reset configuration file to default values

Improved Debugging:
-added setting to dump .zsf snapshot when a cpu panic is fired
-debug CPU window: can now resize height and have more debug lines
-cpu transaction log: faster when opening transaction log file
-added key 'n' for "run" on debug cpu. Does the same as closing all menus and returning back to emulation

Improved TBBlue emulation:
-added scroll x,y on ula layer
-optimized ula,lores render routines: 2% less cpu on my computer
-added 1-bit tile mode

Improved Hex editor: can now copy to a different memory zone
Improved menu:
-can now use PgUp,PgDn to jump menu pages
-added setting to disable File Utilities menu
Improved assembler: added defs command
Improved AY Sheet: now you can select which AY Chip to show
Improved file selector: when asking for a directory, only shows directories, not files
Improved curses driver: symbol @ simulates ESC on menu
Improved snapshot loading: now setting "--sna-no-change-machine" becomes "--snap-no-change-machine" and applies to .sna and .z80
Improved curses driver: now can use utf "blocky" characters and have 64x48 resolution
Improved accurate Z80 timing: IM mode 0 is 1 t-state shorter than IM mode 1
Improved real tape loading: acceleration is disabled by default, added setting to save configuration

Fixed Pentagon border: now ukflag demo is perfect
Fixed Spectrum 128k machines border: now ula128, scroll2017 demos are perfect
Fixed f_seek call on esxdos handler
Fixed segfault error when using breakpoints like peek/opcode in config file
Fixed bug on zxuno changing video ram 5/7 when paging was disabled by bit DI7FFD
Fixed average cpu statistics when footer is not enabled
Fixed kempston mouse emulation on Next machine: wheel bits always return 0
Fixed bug extracting PAWS words when a word is a pronoun
Fixed undocumented opcode ED76: I had IM0 but it's IM1
Fixed loading and saving +3 .z80 snapshots
Fixed placing menu windows when using zx desktop and machines TSConf, TBBlue, CPC and QL
Fixed bug loading .sna files when rom 1 paged in
Fixed very-old bug when loading Rocman game. This bug existed even on ZXSpectr. It fixes return flags when using tape traps.
Rocman loading screen was shown wrong (having the "any flag loading setting" disabled), but loaded. Enabling that setting crashed the game

What about win binary?

Arrgh, newer mind, found it at the end of page.
Seems, I'm little sleepy now.

But anyway...

Thanks. Seems some windows need this dll. I will include it in the next release

Hi!
Great job! But i have got some problems with this emulator.
Ubuntu 20.04, version 8.2.-SN
git pull ; cd src ; ./configure ; make ; make install ; zesarux
Issue:
no sound at all. Ubuntu settings -> Sound -> Volume Levels section hasn't this app.
UI: overall not intuitive similar to FPGA machines.
1. if You press Esc and mouse doesn't hover on menu modal window it press CS SPACE
2. How to reset machine?
Didn't understand why you split input tape menu on Standard and Real. More logically just have some checkbox "Accelerated load".
