Datach games have now to be loaded with the following commands
"mess nes -cart datach -cart2 gamename" where gamename can be
either a shortname from the datach softlist, or a fullpath to the iNES files
(or to headerless 256k dump of the Datach minicarts). This is accurate
to the hardware, because Datach carts could not be mounted in the main
Famicom cartridge slot. [Fabio Priuli]
The implementation also supports nesting.
Opamp emulation now is as easy as
/* Opamp wired as impedance changer */
SUBMODEL(op, opamp)
NET_C(op.GND, GND)
NET_C(op.PLUS, clk)
NET_C(op.MINUS, op.OUT)
The missing bit now is a central submodel repository. I'll start a discussion soon on the list.
nl_examples/opamp.c is an example of a impedance changer stage followed by a 1:2 amplifier stage.
System size (= number of voltage levels to be calculated) is between 20 - 30.
Using a simple, yet better opamp model than usually implemented in the old discrete core, I get
./nltool -f nl_examples/opamp.c -t 30
startup time ==> 0.002
runnning ...
30.000000 seconds emulation took 0.438599 real time ==> 6839.96%
Which leaves quite some buffer to emulate even complex mixing and filtering stages in real-time :-)
UPC-A, EAN-13 and EAN-8 format, stores them in both byte format and in pixel
format; it is up to the driver to implement the correct transfer protocol. [Fabio Priuli]
Added UI menu to enter barcodes via keyboard. It only gets activated if the running
machine has a barcode device. [Fabio Priuli]
out of whatsnew: The latter change was coordinated with Nathan, so it shall not
create problems with his UI reorganization ;)
- netlist construction now is relying on fully qualified names, i.e. the name of
a netlist object now starts with the netlist name.
This is a first step towards supporting netlist models, i.e. netlists which can be
used as a macro model. Very handy for opamps ...
- Changed log file filename format.
- Support analog net groups of up to 256 nets (i.e. Voltages).
