Chip 8 Emulator for Gamecube v1.0a
posted in Emulator Release by narvick on Jul 31st, 2003That's right. A few days ago, a coder by the name of DesktopMan released the first ever emulator for Gamecube. There is no special name for it, just simply Chip 8 Emulator. There have been two versions. The initial release was on July 24. v1.0a was released the 25th. Here's what's new in the latest version:
- Wait-for-key opcode doesn't hinder restart or game switch
- You can now restart from the menu as well
- Speed adjustment during play: Digital up: faster Digital down: slower (CPU cycles per Vblank)
- Fixed some bugs in the cpu-core. "Hidden" and others now work as they should
- Added a few opcodes
- Added some more info to the readme, fixed some spelling errors :)
- New menu system with all games
- Revised the control setup. Now is more similar to the original pad. Note: Since the pad was in two verions, 8 and 2 (up and down in most games) are sometimes switched
- Added the game-info txt to the zip. (Written by David Winter, author of Chip8 emu for PC)
