ASp v0.81
posted in Emulator Release by outsider on Aug 24th, 2001
ASp is a Sinclair ZX Spectrum Emulator for the Amiga. Here's what's new:
Somewhat less buggy TZX support, plus the addition of a tape browser. There is now also some crude tape noise.
Most TZX files will be useable, but there are several TZX blocks which are ignored still. See the docs for more info.
Although this is a general release, there is still considerable work to be done to the behaviour of the system and the way it interacts with the user. Since there is quite a list of modifications to be done and I don't know when I'll get round to doing them, and this version appears to be stable with (apparently) no MuForce/MGA hits, it is worth releasing.
Aside from the usual bug reprts and things, I would be particularly interested in user's opinions of how you would like the tape deck controls to look and operate. The present system is simplistic to say the least.
Also, URL's of TZX's containing some of the less-seen blocks, such as Direct Recording, Embedded Snapshot, Call/Return, etc. would be helpful if these blocks are to be implemented and/or tested.
Get it from the Spectrum Emulators page.
