Re: [hatari-devel] Release 1.6.2 in mid May

[Laurent Sallafranque <laurent.sallafranque@xxxxxxx>]

Hi,

Sorry for not having replied earlier, I spent some times in hollidays.

It's a good idea for me.
I won't upload anything until the release. (All my tries for videl 
emulation are not yet stable enough).

For the Falcon borders, there's still a problem with the STE modes 
(borders are wrong), but it works.

For the falcon parameters in the new cpu core, they should be configured 
like this :

System :

Machine: Falcon
Cpu type: 68030
cpu clock: 16 Mhz
Falcon DSP: Full

Cpu parameters:
24 bits addressing ON
Prefetch mode, slower : ON
Cycle exact, slower: ON
Real time clock emulation: ON
Patch timer-D: OFF
Blitter emulation: ON
MMU 040 emulation: OFF

FPU:
68882: ON
More compatible, slower: ON

TOS: 4.02 or later

Memory ram: 14 Mib ON

Atari screen: Show STE borders : ON
(Shouldn't this one be renamed as Atari show borders (remove ST/Ste) ?


A little question:
Someone uploaded a patch for Pasti images.
Nicolas said it was not the good way to implement this, it should be 
more generic.
But I'm asking myself if this would not be a good idea to have it 
implemented (if this works).
It would be the first version of Hatari which emulated this format.
We could improve code later to add the missing parts.

Nicolas ?

Best regards

Laurent
