Hello

In time for the summer holidays, Hatari 2.4.0 has been released !

You can get it from https://hatari.tuxfamily.org/ or directly in https://download.tuxfamily.org/hatari/2.4.0/

Sources are available, as well as prebuilt binaries for Windows (in 32 bit and 64 bit mode) and macOS (thanks to Troed). (note that the Windows binaries don't include PortAudio/PortMidi libraries for now, only macOS version does)


Major highlights of this new version :

- Major rewrite of the internal delays/timers, speed up emulation by ~10% on average
 - Various CPU improvements (FPU, IPL timing)
- Faster CPU emulation for 68000 in cycle exact mode (speed up emulation by ~7%)
 - More accurate MFP emulation, combined with the new internal timers
 - Improved VBLANK position in 50 and 60 Hz mode
- Improved cycle accurate YM2149 emulation, supporting new effects (syncsquare in maxYMiser v1.53)
 - Better value for MFP GPIP bit 7 (STE DMA sound and Falcon sound)
 - For SCSI, improve "Mode Sense" and "Report Luns"
 - For IKDB, better emulation of commands $A and $B
 - Better MIDI using PortMidi (Linux/Windows/macOS)
 - Better RS232 support for BSD/macOS
 - Some fixes for Gemdos HD mode
 - Many debugger improvements
- Hatari now defaults to the SMALL_MEM build option, using less RAM during emulation


See release-notes.txt for the full changelog http://hatari.tuxfamily.org/doc/release-notes.txt

No new intro this time, maybe for the next release ;)
