Hi Nicholas,

thanks a lot for releasing a new Hatari! :-)

And I enjoyed your intro a lot as well, flashbacks to DHS bunker early 90's (Moonstone I think?). Really well done on STe!

Hello

At last, a new release ! :)

You can get it from http://hatari.tuxfamily.org/ or directly in http://download.tuxfamily.org/hatari/2.1.0/

Sources are available, as well as prebuilt binaries for Windows (in 32 bit and 64 bit mode) and macOS (thanks to Troed).

Major highlights of this new version :

  - Major rewrite of the YM2149 with a new cycle accurate emulation
  - Major rewrite of the blitter to allow cycle exact bus accesses and
    correct bus sharing with the CPU
  - Improved video emulation : bottom border at 60 Hz and number of
    displayed lines, video counter reloading, timer B in mono mode
  - Add full support for MMU/MCU RAM configuration at $FF8001, support
    more RAM combinations (256 KB and 2.5 MB)
  - Some STX floppy images were not correctly emulated when verify bit
    was set in the FDC
  - Support for undocumented STOP behaviour on 68000
  - Fix some rare bus accesses order and stack frames
  - Fix some flags after DIV and BCD instructions
  - Improved memory timing for 68030 depending on RAM type
  - 68030 instruction cache was not correctly disabled when EI=0 in
    CACR
  - Improve caches accuracy for 68020/30/40/60, with optional MMU
    support
  - Large improvements to FPU emulation, including a new softfloat
    method
  - MIDI support for Windows and macOS (with PortMidi library)
  - Add support for AVI files > 4GB (up to 256 GB)
  - SDL UI shows refresh rate and blitter usage
  - Several improvements/fixes when using VDI
  - Improvements/more options for autostart using virtual INF file
  - Many improvements to debugger, especially for symbols handling
  - Fix compilation for more targets (ARM64, MIPS, ...)


See release-notes.txt for the full changelog.

Fixed demos : Sprite32 by Leonard, Jam-Cols by ICE, 4getful, Beams, many
   Falcon demos should run better

Fixed programs : Hextracker for Falcon, Protracker 2.1 and Neochrome
   Master 2.8 at 60 Hz, Audio Sculpture


As a special bonus, I coded a small intro for this release, available here http://download.tuxfamily.org/hatari/demos/hatari_2.1/ or here http://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=74746
