XRoar DS v0.20f4 - Dragon and Tandy CoCo emulator for the Nintendo DS

[wraggster]

The Dragon and Tandy CoCo emulator (http://www.6809.org.uk/dragon/xroar.shtml) for the Nintendo DS has seen a new release.

Information:


The DS port is advancing nicely. This version features interface for input configuration (though this doesn't get recorded anywhere yet, so you have to set it each time) and snapshot saving. Sound is now pretty much spot on, and video is synced to 50Hz where appropriate (DS allows its current idea of which scanline it's on to be modified). ROMs should sit in fat:/dragon/roms/ (or just fat:/dragon/). Swapping screens ('START' by default) now maps the touch screen to analogue joystick input (good for games like Katerpillar Attack).

It is built against a recent CVS checkout of libfat, so supports DLDI patching (shouldn't be required for most recent flash carts).

xroar.nds - v0.20f4 (http://www.6809.org.uk/dragon/xroar.nds) slot 1 binary.
xroar.ds.gba file (http://www.6809.org.uk/dragon/xroar.ds.gba) - v0.20f4 slot 2 binary - untested.

Wow a lot of emulation updates lately. Awesome news.

This was omitted from above

"RSDOS operation is back!"

I need to test this, because I think it means CoCo disk images will work now.


Just a reminder for Dragon cassette images use

CLOADM to load
and EXEC to run the program.
