New build of ClrMAMEPro, some nice speed optimization and a long existing archiving issue is fixed

3.126

misc: optimized rom name check, major speed increase for sets with lots of roms
misc: optimized “deeper check for fixable missing files”, major speed increase for sets with lots of roms
misc: don’t list unneeded chds twice anymore (one via disk and the other via rom unneeded check)
fixed: zip buffersize for one-file operations was wrongly set to 15 byte decreasing speed immensly
fixed: profiler rarely shows a wrong tree icon when removing a currently loaded profile
fixed: profiler rarely doesn’t autorefresh [new datfiles]

Kale posted some news on his WIP page.

I’m been busy with the Sega Naomi HW stuff with Haze and ElSemi. Thanks to the latter, I’ve implemented a JVS unimplemented i/o command used by the later games of this hardware.  Now Ikaruga (and others) can be coined up and are playable (although still in wire-frame)…

As a bonus track: thanks to some internet research there, I’ve fixed one of the most long standing bugs that afflicted Idol Janshi Suchie-Pai Special with the back layer pens.

Priorities still need fixing in that driver though (needs some side-by-side tests).

 Retrogames turned 10 a few days ago.

although emulation itself has slowed down quite a bit over the years, playing Daytona Arcade on my laptop is very nice God, that game took some money from me, back in the day.

Thanks to YOU, for still visiting our site after all this time and thanks to a dedicated staff for keeping RG updated. And small note to JoseQ: check your mail.

BeebEm is a BBC Micro and Master 128 emulator. It enables you to run BBC Micro software on your PC. BeebEm was first developed for UNIX systems in 1994 by David Gilbert (Dave’s page) and was then ported to Microsoft Windows.

BeebEm Change History
=====================

Version 4.0 (Mike Wyatt, Rob O’Donnell, Steve Pick)
———–
* Added clipboard functionality from the Mac port.  Clipboard can be set as
  destination for printer output, copy and paste menu options for BASIC
  programs.
* Added file import/export for DFS disc images loaded into BeebEm.  The
  exported files use the standard archive format where .INF files store the
  file attributes.
* Added support for disc, state and tape file specific preferences.  When
  loading a file from the command line, running a disk image or loading a
  state file BeebEm will check for Preferences.cfg and Roms.cfg files in the
  same folder as the image file.  This makes it easier to set up different
  preferences for different programs.
* Added ALT-ENTER keypress to toggle fullscreen mode.
* Creation of registry entries at installation:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\BeebEm\InstallPath
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\BeebEm\Version
* Reduced the tape control window size so it fits on a Netbook screen.
* Added Rob’s IP options for serial port emulation.  Allows connection via
  TCP/IP to local or remote IP address.  Incoming connections can be
  supported via utilities such as tcpser.
* Debugger enhancements from Steve:
  - User-defined breakpoints and watches.
  - Break on BRK instruction.
  - Support for loading VICE format label files, as generated by LD65 - this
    lets you use text labels in place of addresses in all debugger commands.
  - Memory map file allows short descriptions for memory ranges. Debugger
    will use this to describe what location it’s entered OS code at, or
    where the break landed.
  - Commands to toggle various UI checkboxes.
  - Command to echo a line of text to debugger output.
  - Debugger commands can now be loaded from a script file specified on the
    BeebEm command line (with -DebugScript). Simple comments are also
    supported.
  - Sanitized some code, added DisplayDebugInfoF(format, …) to output
    formatted debugging info, sprintf() style.
  - Beautified the debugging UI a bit.
