Changelog

(2015-10-07)

  • A long time ago I implemented the speed improvement in the core I hinted at in the original release.. it made about a 15% improvement. (Using table lookup instead of tearing apart the opcode every cycle).
  • Did some work on cleaning up a little - wrote a simulator for the console interrupt routine. It's incomplete, but it improved compatibility remarkably! Between that, and actually loading the right amount of cartridge data, a lot of stuff that didn't even try before now runs.
  • It also means I scan for FCTN (ALT) = now. ;) Though other FCTN keys are NOT implemented. I notice FCTN = crashes sometimes - I think if it's held down and repeats once or twice. I'll get to checking that.
