RE: Ideas for the ultimate emulator :)

[Jason Thacker]

Yes, I've seen it (and run it) and admit mine is a similar idea, just packaged up in a portable hardware format that I could use in my living room :). I don't see any reason why the system itself couldn't be based on MESS, just loading modules on demand from SD Card.   Jason From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 12 February 2005 17:51 To: sam-users@nvg.ntnu.no Subject: Re: Ideas for the ultimate emulator :) Have you not seen this then?   regards Steve(spt)     http://www.mess.org/index.html MESS is a free emulator which emulates a large variety of different systems.  As of the latest CVS version, it supports the following: Adventurevision Alfa Amstrad 464plus Amstrad 6128plus Amstrad PC1512 (version 1) Amstrad PC1512 (version 2) Amstrad PC1640 / PC6400 (US) Amstrad PC20 Amstrad/Schneider CPC464 Amstrad/Schneider CPC6128 Amstrad/Schneider CPC664 APEXC (as described in 1957) APF Imagination Machine APF M-1000 Apple ][ Apple ][+ Apple //c Apple //c Plus Apple //c (UniDisk 3.5) Apple //e Apple //e (enhanced) Apple //e (Platinum) Apple I Aquarius Arcadia 2001 Atari 2600 (NTSC) Atari 400 (NTSC) Atari 400 (PAL) Atari 5200 Atari 7800 NTSC Atari 7800 PAL Atari 800 (NTSC) Atari 800 (PAL) Atari 800XL Atari Jaguar Atom Atom with Eprom Box Bally Computer System Bally Professional Arcade BBC Micro Model A BBC Micro Model B BBC Micro Model B+ 128k BBC Micro Model B+ 64K BBC Micro Model B with WD1770 disc controller C64GS (PAL) C65 / C64DX (Prototype, German PAL, 910429) C65 / C64DX (Prototype, NTSC, 910111) C65 / C64DX (Prototype, NTSC, 910523) C65 / C64DX (Prototype, NTSC, 910626) C65 / C64DX (Prototype, NTSC, 910828) C65 / C64DX (Prototype, NTSC, 911001) CBM4064/PET64/Educator64 (NTSC) CF-1200 (Japan) CF-2000 (Japan) CF-2700 (Japan) CF-3000 (Japan) CF-3300 (Japan) Channel F Chess Champion MK II ColecoAdam Colecovision Colecovision (Thick Characters) Color Computer Color Computer 2 Color Computer 2B Color Computer 3 (NTSC) Color Computer 3 (NTSC; HD6309) Color Computer 3 (PAL) Color Computer (Extended BASIC 1.0) Colour Genie EG2000 Commodore 128 French (PAL) Commodore 128 German (PAL) Commodore 128 Italian (PAL) Commodore 128 NTSC Commodore 128 Swedish (PAL) Commodore 16/116/232/264 (PAL) Commodore 16/116/232/264 (PAL), 1551 Commodore 16 Novotrade (PAL, Hungarian Character Set) Commodore 30xx (Basic 2) Commodore 30xx (Basic 2) (business keyboard) Commodore 364 (Prototype) Commodore 40xx FAT (CRTC) 50Hz Commodore 40xx FAT (CRTC) 60Hz Commodore 40xx THIN (business keyboard) Commodore +4 (NTSC) Commodore +4 (NTSC), 1551 Commodore 64 (NTSC) Commodore 64 Swedish (PAL) Commodore 64/VC64/VIC64 (PAL) Commodore 80xx 50Hz Commodore 80xx 60Hz Commodore 80xx German (50Hz) Commodore 80xx Swedish (50Hz) Commodore B128-40/Pet-II/P500 60Hz Commodore B128-80HP/710 Commodore B128-80LP/610 60Hz Commodore B256-80HP/720 Commodore B256-80HP/720 Swedish/Finnish Commodore B256-80LP/620 50Hz Commodore B256-80LP/620 Hungarian 50Hz Commodore Max (Ultimax/VC10) Commodore SP9000/MMF9000 (50Hz) Compis Concept CP400 CPS Changer (Street Fighter ZERO) DAI Personal Computer Dragon 32 Dragon 64 Enterprise 128 Enterprise 128 (EXOS 2.1) EURO PC Expert (Brazil) Expert DDPlus (Brazil) Expert Plus (Brazil) Famicom FS-1300 (Japan) FS-4000 (Japan) FS-4500 (Japan) FS-4600 (Japan) FS-4700 (Japan) FS-5000F2 (Japan) FS-5500F1/F2 (Japan) FS-A1 / 1st released version (Japan) FS-A1 / 2nd released version (Japan) FS-A1F (Japan) FS-A1FM (Japan) FS-A1FX (Japan) FS-A1MK2 (Japan) FS-A1WSX (Japan) FS-A1WX / 1st released version (Japan) FS-A1WX / 2nd released version (Japan) Galaksija Gamboy - (PAL) Japanese SMS BIOS v2.1 GameBoy GameBoy Color GameBoy Pocket Game Gear - European/American Game Gear - European/American Majesco Game Gear BIOS Game Gear - Japanese Game Gear - Japanese Majesco Game Gear BIOS Geneve 9640 HB-201 (Japan) HB-201P HB-501P HB-75D (Germany) HB-75P HB-8000 Hotbit 1.1 HB-8000 Hotbit 1.2 HB-F1II (Japan) HB-F1 (Japan) HB-F1XD (Japan) HB-F1XDJ (Japan) HB-F1XDMK2 (Japan) HB-F1XV (Japan) HB-F500 (Japan) HB-F500P HB-F700D (Germany) HB-F700P HB-F700S (Spain) HB-F900 / 1st released version (Japan) HB-F900 / 2nd released version (Japan) HB-F9P HB-G900P IBM PC 08/16/82 IBM PC 10/27/82 IBM PC/AT (CGA, MF2 Keyboard) IBM PC/XT (CGA) Intellivision Intellivision Keyboard Component (Unreleased) Intellivision (Sears) Inves Spectrum 48K+ IQ-1000 DPC-100 (Korea) IQ-1000 DPC-180 (Korea) IQ-1000 DPC-200 (Korea) IQ-2000 CPC-300 (Korea) Jupiter Ace Kaypro 2x KC 85/3 KC 85/4 KC Compact KIM-1 Laser 110 Laser 200 Laser 210 Laser 310 Laser 350 Laser 500 Laser 700 Lisa2 Lisa2/10 LNW-80 Lynx Lynx (alternate rom save!)
