Its looking very nice :)

i like the old amstrad, this is good to see someone doing an emulator for it at last, now we just need more work on the bbc one aswell ;)

That should be good as my Amstrad CPC464 broke and i have 200+ games for it taking up room, here i come eBay.

JMD is a perfectionist so this emulator once released should be a great one.

:o OH MI GOD!!!!!! :o
My first computer 8bit AMSTRAD, on DREAMCAST. ;D this new is fantastic, i'm very happy ;D prey every day in curch for see this work end.
Thanks Thanks :'( :).

Wow, I waited so long for this. An Amstrad CPC6128 was my first computer... Great! Looking forward to the release of this thing. Thank you.

Wow, cool!

JMD Congratulations, NICE and awaited EMU for DC.
Again, THX !!!!

I'm stoked. I've been badgering for a CPC emulator for years.!

Many thanks ;D

:-/ news on this emu?

yes.

After a break of few weeks, I work again on the emu (Thanks to ron and all the MadriDC to push me to do ;))

I add since last post :
- Screen re-size (to zoom screen on some games)
- Zip support
- Auto run games : select the Amstrad file in a list and it will autorun in the emu
- Completly remade the virtual KB : now it don't stop the emulation.

But it still to do :
- many bugs to correct
- map KB and roms for UK, Germans and spanish CPC
- manage 2 pads for 2 Amstrad Joysticks
- make it sound better

As always, it progress slowly but fine :)


JMD

i for one cant wait to see this emulator released :)

any status news jmd :)

2 bug still remain :
- random crash in render code
- the sound delay

Ask for help to Quzar ....

Everything else isn't perfect but is ok ;)

excellent glad to hear your still plugging away at it :)

would disabling the sound sort out the other problem ?

i helped him and was able to help him to fix one problem. i also gave him pointers as to the sound problem, but I dont know if he solved it yet.
