#CSpect V2.10.1 ZXSpectrum emulator by Mike Dailly.

Be aware...emulator is far from well tested, and might crash for any reason - sometimes just out of pure spite!

Command Line Options

-zxnext = enable Next hardware registers
-nextrom = enable the Next ROM ("enNextZX.rom" and "enNxtmmc.rom" required)
-zx128 = enable ZX Spectrum 128 mode
-s7 = enable 7Mhz mode
-s14 = enable 14Mhz mode
-s28 = enable 28Mhz mode

-cur = to map cursor keys to 6789 (l/r/d/u)
-8_3 = set filenames back to 8.3 detection
-mmc=<dir or file>= enable RST $08 usage, must provide path to "root" dir of emulated SD card (eg "-mmc=." or "-mmc=c:test")
-sd2=<pathfile> = Second SD card image file
-map=<pathfile> = SNASM format map file for use in the debugger. format is: "<16bit address> <physical address> <type> <primary_label>[@<local>]"
-sound = disable sound
-joy = disable joysticks
-w<size> = set window size (1 to 4)

CSpect now uses a shader to render, and I have added a TV shader which you can adjust using page up/down and home/end. This gives a nice retro look to games.


CSpect V2.10.1 changes

• Fixed a crash in relative sprites where the X coordinate could go negative
• Added +3 "all ram" mode. (ZX81 games now work on the Next SD card)
• ay8912.dll no longer obfuscated. Didn't realise this was still getting obfuscated. This means you can now compile the DLL yourself using the supplied source.
• Fixed the fake UART and Wifi - was ignoring a basic AT command.
• Added a couple of new AT commands to the UART. AT+CIPSTA? will now return your IP address.
• AT+CIPDNS_CUR? will return googles DNS server - coz why not.
• AT+GMR will return n00160901 - which is an older version of the wifi chip I believe - any other preference?
• Fixed the default MMC path (when you don't specify one) on the Mac/Linux. Now uses .Net Path.PathSeparator...
• Any unknown UART command is now sent to the LOG file
• CTRL+F1 now enables/disables the TV shader (-tv on the command line to disable)
• PageUp+PageDown now makes the TV lines less/more visible
• Home+End now adjusts the TV shader "blur"
• Fixed a shader crash on OSX (Probably Linux as well)
