| YAPE 1.2.6!
If you had issues with the last version of YAPE, worry no longer: Gaia is here with version 1.2.6, which is a much anticipated bugfix release.
* D82 image support in IEC mode * Automatic line feed bug fixed in MPS801/803 mode * Re-enabled attach disk image in 1551 mode * Sound device selection fix * TED sound frequency regression fix * Monitor opcode cache clear on memory overwrite
This update is a must for all, so head on over to the YAPE Homepage and hit download! |

Thank you for the new version, Gaia. I'm glad that this very useful tool still gets better and better after all this time. However, I have a long standing complaint. It is not a serious problem but a cosmetic type one. The Machine/Configuration... window always opens with Custom machine as Preset machine type. Would it be too much hassle to check the configuration and select the actual machine type when opening this window? And another two questions: will the 64-bit build too have the call trace window and will the position of the monitor and trace windows persist between sessions some day? |

As I think the "persist between sessions" is always a question.. If somebody resize the screen area, and change monitor that will be a problem to persist it.
I'll be happier, that I can save more custom machine for rom types. Maybe I can start somehow differently. But I 'm happy for the fact, We have Yape! 
The serial adapter emulation in the future maybe will be nice, because I have some idea with it. |

Sure, but which would you guess is a more frequent occurrence: A) people changing their computer setups; B) people run and quit YAPE umpteen times when debugging a programme under development? Were you pressed to pick one of these option to support, which would you find more useful to choose? A) Absolute safety? (as if...) B) Everyday convenience and efficiency? |

@Gaia. Thank you for adding the support of D82 file format. This 1MB monster size floppy disc format will give us the chance to release games and slideshows with a lot of gfx. TCBM2SD already support this D82 format, but if a realease will come in this format (because of YAPE support) nobody will be shocked.
Why D82 and not the 1581 disc format is my preferred big floppy format?
Because the TCBM2SD is not only bigger but much faster too. 6x faster in normal mode than an 1581 (and with special driver 12-14x faster) , and in emulation mode the 1551 with a D82 alone is 4x faster than 1581 in normal IEC mode. (Maybe implementing and getting widespread the fast serial protocol will change it soon.) |

It seems the mouse support is still not fixed.  |

Az a "bug" relative új.. szóval odébb lesz, mire bekerül esetleg. Addig is van Yape version a driverből. szóval progit fejleszteni elvileg lehet (amit én írogatok, azt yape alatt tesztelem általában először)
- 1 - Viszont azt nem tudom, hogy a beállításokban van olyan, hogy "Selected IEC Drive working folder" és ez régen működött, de most bármit tekergetek, nem sikerül beállítani, hogy egy foldert használjon drive-nak. Hogy kell ezt használni??
És ez amiatt baj, mert már amúgy is van sd2iec-ünk, meg tcbm2sd-nk, és amúgy is vannak/ lesznek utántöltős progik, ami segít a memória hiányon, meg hogy ne kelljen lemezekkel bíbelődni, cserélgetni, simán ZIP-ként is ki lehetne adni játékot, vagy programokat. És a drive emulációk elég lassúak.. szóval most sokszoros teljesítményt élek meg az eredeti vason, viszont ez szuper is lehetne ha egy pc-s könyvtárat tallóznék ki. Fileokat is könnyebben lehetne frissíteni.. Nekem ez nagyon hiányzik..
- 2 - Meg lehetne hogy hard reset-kor újra felolvassa a ROM fileokat.. az ROM fejlesztésnél rengeteg időt tudnék spórolni. | Re: YAPE 1.2.6!
That "bug" is relatively new… so it'll probably be a while before it's addressed.
In the meantime, there's a Yape version of the driver, so theoretically it's possible to develop programs (what I'm writing, I usually test under Yape first).
1 – However, I don’t know how the “Selected IEC Drive working folder” setting works. It used to work before, but now no matter what I try, I can’t get it to use a folder as a drive.
How is this supposed to be used?
This is a problem because we already have sd2iec and tcbm2sd, and there are and will be loader-based programs that help with memory constraints and eliminate the need to swap disks. It would be possible to release games or programs as simple ZIPs.
And drive emulation is quite slow… right now I’m seeing a huge performance boost on the real hardware, but this could be super useful if I could just browse to a PC folder. It would also be easier to update files that way.
I really miss this feature...
2 – Also, would it be possible for the emulator to reload the ROM files on a hard reset? That would save me a ton of time during ROM development.

Use the 32 bit version (YapeWin32.exe). That has the functionality in proper working order. The 64 bit build has problems with directory reading, emulation mode selection and folder path persistence. |

Brevity is welcome in our days of excessive verbosity, but I think you're a bit overdoing it. |

so sorry for that. this is because my level of English.. not my personality.
And thank you the answer! Otherway I hope this will be solved in the future.. .. all of them.. the yape worjking folder, and my knowledge too.
Best regards! Sz |
