3) Minor adjustment to the SID noise waveform. The California Games title music drums
now plays correctly.

4) Bug fix to the "Save As D64" option that guessed the wrong speed zone of a track which
resulted in a corrupted saved D64. The default speed zones are now assumed during a
"Save As D64".

5) ROMs are searched for in the following order. The folder of the executable. The current
system path.


12 October 2006 v1.0.4.11
=========================
1)  The CIA Time Of Day clock has been corrected to have the same quirky BCD count up
behaviour as the real thing.

2) The CIA Time Of Day count-up frequency has been corrected and now responds to
the 50Hz / 60Hz TOD input selector.

09 October 2006 v1.0.4.10
=========================
1) Fixed CIA Time Of Day freeze on write function. A freeze bug in the game
"Frankie Goes To Hollywood" has been fixed.

06 October 2006 v1.0.4.9
========================
1) The Flexible Disk Image support has been upgraded to include the new FDI v2.1 format
with CRC-32 error detection.

2) T64 read-only file support has been added. A T64 directory browser has been added to
the Tape menu.

3) The SID resonance has been boosted.

4) The SID ADSR timings have been corrected to be cycle exact.

5) Fixed long standing incorrect implementation of the SID "Hard-Sync".

6) The SID "combined waveforms" now uses an 8bit wave table. The samples were taken from a
Commodore C64C with serial number "HB5 527013 E" via the SID register $D41B.

7) Minor adjustment of SID sample holding behaviour for waveform $00.

8) An intermittent performance slow down issue with the SID filters has been fixed. The
performance loss was a result excessive underflow with ultra small numbers known as
de-normal floating point numbers.

Many thanks to Stephan Parth for SID emulation testing.



22 August 2006 v1.0.4.8
=======================
1) The SID emulation has been improved. The amplitude modulators will hold the last
sample sent from waveform generators that have been set to output no waveforms.
Clicking, ticking and popping noises have been removed from the following sid tunes:
Sheep In Space
Sidewinder II
Brutal_Techno.sid by S. Bachliński (Moog) & Jetan

2) The combined waveforms have been adjusted.

3) Minor VIC-II fixes have been made. Several stray black pixels have been removed from
the bottom right of the "kiss" screen in +H2K demo by Plush. White flickering pixels
have been removed from the sprite multiplexer hidden screen in Krestage by Crest.

22 January 2006 v1.0.4.7
========================
1) Sound bug fix to "resampling" mode.

22 January 2006 v1.0.4.6
========================
1) Added SID "resampling" and "down sampling" options to the emulation settings page.
Previous versions implemented down sampling only. Resampling introduces less noise but
requires significantly more CPU power than down sampling. Resampling is off by default.


16 January 2006 v1.0.4.5
========================
1) The length of time taken to reset the noise waveform via the "test bit" has been set
to 7 seconds. Version 1.0.4.2 and lower never reset the noise waveform. Version 1.0.4.3
accommodated the SounDemons emulation detector test by introducing a reset delay that
took a tiny fraction of a second. As a result some noise bases sid files will play
correctly as they did in version 1.0.4.2


16 January 2006 v1.0.4.4
========================
1) Version 1.0.4.3 may suffer poor performance on a host CPU with L2 cache 256Kb or less.
The interpolation filter kernel size has now been slightly reduced to restore performance.

2) The sprite collision timing has been delayed by two pixels. As a result,
Emu-Fuxx0r V1 compatibility has been added in addition to existing Emu-Fuxx0r V2
compatibility.


15 January 2006 v1.0.4.3
========================
1) Corrected delayed response of the SID wave feedback register $D418. Improved
combined SID wave forms emulation. SounDemons "Waveform Composer" emulation detection
test now passes.

2) Added Pete Rittwage's weak bit handling to the 1541 drive emulation as required by
some copy protected disk images.


13 January 2006 v1.0.4.2
========================
1) Fixed bug that would silently fail to insert an FDI disk if the emulator write
protection was enabled prior to insertion.

11 January 2006 v1.0.4.1
========================
1) Fixed GPF in Insert New Blank Disk.
2) Disk write protection bug fix.

11 January 2006 v1.0.4.0
========================
1) Disk file support is expanded to include Vincent Joguin's FDI (Flexible Disk Image)
and G64 (Raw GCR Binary). G64 files can be loaded but not saved. FDI files can be both
loaded and saved. FDI support is limited to the Raw Pulse Stream Tracks format.

2) Non standard track layout D64 files are loaded more correctly but will save only as
FDI. Standard track layout D64 files will save as normal.

3) The 1541 emulation is enhanced to support bitwise resolution of disk tracks. Magnetic
disk pulses are specified to a resolution of 16Mhz. No more than one pulse can be
specified with in the same 1Mhz band arc of any track.  G64 files effectively specify a
bit resolution between 0.3Mhz and 0.25Mhz depending on the speed zone setting.

4) The 1541 floppy disk controller emulation includes all relevant internal counters
and shift registers.

5) 1541 VIA port latching and handshaking is now emulated.

6) Improved handling of disk protect sensor while swapping disks.



13 December 2005 v1.0.3.12
==========================
1) Fixed sprite bug introduced in release (v1.0.3.8) where a sprite could empty its buffer at
column cycle 63 even thought the sprite was hidden at X position >= 0x1f8. This was noticed as
occasional blank sprite lines in the second part of the "Ice Cream Castle" demo by Crest.

12 December 2005 v1.0.3.12
==========================
1) Sprite hiding, distortion and buffering near the fetch clocks is now correctly emulated.
"Demus Interruptus" by Crest should display now display correctly with true cycle based sprites.
2) Frame skip is off by default and VBL Sync is on by default.


20 November 2005 v1.0.3.11
==========================
1) Quick speed mode retains maximum compatibility by disabling sound output but not disabling the
SID emulation. The "Emu-fuxx0r v2" test will now pass in Quick speed mode.

14 November 2005 v1.0.3.10
==========================
1) Fixed instance corrupted sideborder graphics introduced in release (v1.0.3.8).
The problem was visible during a decreasing X Scroll in raster cycle 56.

12 November 2005 v1.0.3.9
=========================
1) Fixed some corrupted sideborder graphics introduced in the previous release (v1.0.3.8).

12 November 2005 v1.0.3.8 : Possibly the world’s first emulator to fool "Emu-fuxx0r v2".
=========================
1) Cycle based sprite emulation.
2) "Emu-fuxx0r v2" by Plush compatibility. The "Quick speed" toggle must be switched off to pass
the "Emu-fuxx0r v2" test. This is because the "Quick speed" toggle disables the SID emulation.
3) DExx memory compatibility.
4) SID digi boost option.

14 September 2005 v1.0.3.7
==========================
1) Corrected SID to return 255 for the X-Y game paddle positions. The game Lemmings will now work
in joystick mode.

12 September 2005 v1.0.3.6
==========================
1) CIA timers are set to 65535 following a hard reset. The game Netherworld will now run as a result.
2) Fixed CIA timer output to PB6 and PB7.

8 September 2005 v1.0.3.5
=========================
1) Improved SID player compatibility. RSID "C64 BASIC" mode support added. PSID 60hz CIA mode support added.

7 September 2005 v1.0.3.4
=========================
1) Bug fixes to SID player. RSID support. 60hz SID play mode is not supported in this release.

6 September 2005 v1.0.3.3
=========================
1) SID File version 1 and version 2 support.

6 September 2005 v1.0.3.2
=========================
1) Initial release of SID file player. Support is limited to the PSID "PAL Vertical Blank" variety.
SID files are loaded through the auto-load menu option.
2) Additional ring modulation bugs fixed.

20 August 2005 v1.0.3.1
=======================
1) Corrected poor sounding ring modulation noticed in Sidewinder II.

19 August 2005 v1.0.3.0
=======================
1) Fixed pulse width modulation to allow digi sound playback in Air Combat Emulator (A.C.E.)
2) Added F-key control boxes to the keyboard configuration page.
3) Added Quick speed toggle on Alt-Q.

15 August 2005 v1.0.2.9
=======================
1) Fixed digi sound playback that was noticed broken by Stuart Toomer.
2) Adjustment to filter to keep stable when operating above the pi/3 Chamberlin frequency limit.

13 August 2005 v1.0.2.8
=======================
1) SID filters implemented as a state variable Chamberlin filter.
2) SID ring modulation has been redesigned to use the method as described in the
"SID Primer" by Stephen L. Judd. The previous version used triangle
and sawthooth wave tables with wave multiplication.

7 June 2005 v1.0.2.7
====================
1) Any PC joystick button can be selected as the fire button.
2) Improved CPU friendly mode.

8 December 2004 v1.0.2.6
========================
1) Sound sampling set to 44100Hz

8 August 2004 v1.0.2.5
======================
1) Bug fix to allow "Audio clock sync" to work with disabled disk drive emulation.
Previous versions require that drive emulation is enabled.

25 July 2004 v1.0.2.4
=====================
1) Bug fix in joystick configuration code. All joysticks should work now.
2) Pause function on Alt-P.


22 July 2004 v1.0.2.3
=====================
1) Joystick swap function on Alt-J fixed after initially released not working.


22 July 2004 v1.0.2.2
=====================
1) Audio clock sync option to prevent sound glitches on computers whose audio clock
is slightly in dissagreement with the windows "Performance Counter".
2) Joystick swap function on Alt-J
3) CPU Friendly option.
4) Minor fix to CIA ports to read pin levels instead of output levels.
5) www.hoxs64.com domain name in service.

17 July 2004 v1.0.2.1
=====================
PC Joystick/Pad support available. Win2000 tested.

5 February 2004 v1.0.2.0
========================
Direct Sound set to software mode. Some machines show much poorer performance
with hardware sound even with fast processors and memory. This is probably
because hardware sound is optimised for large sound buffers and Hoxs64 uses
small buffers. Try this version if sound is jerky with 600+Mhz PC.

29 March 2003 v1.0.1.2
======================
1) Added Auto Load option to the file menu for easier C64 program loading.
2) Minor VIC-II fixes.

22 March 2003 v1.0.1.0
======================
1) Added windows screen doubler with option to choose between a CPU
or a DirectX pixel doubler.
2) Changed C64 colours to RGB values provided by Stuart Toomer.
3) Changed full screen mode to prefer 8bit colour for performance.

10 March 2003 v1.0.0.10
=======================
1) Option to configure Keyboard assignments

2) Load/Save of setting to the registry. Setting are saved under
HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/Hoxs64

3) Minor VIC-II fixes. Hoxs64 can run all screens in the "Ice Cream Castle" demo
by Crest with out glitches.


1 August 2002 V1.0.0.4
======================
Numerous improvements to the VIC emulation accuracy.

1) The sprite X positions are displayed more correctly when the X register is changed
on a line for which the sprite is active.

2) The border and boundground0 colours change 12 clocks after the write access
to the colour registers as explained in "Christian Bauer's VIC-II Article".
This rule applies regardless of the amount of XSCROLL.

3) If the value XSCROLL increases then the VIC will output idle state coloured pixels
only after the current character has been shifted out to the display.

4) Corrected the idle state colours underneath the border. "Demus Interruptus"
now shows all screen pixel perfect.

5) Sprites are corrupted if positioned near to the sprite data fetch clocks.
As a result, Hoxs64 will the run "Demus Interruptus" with out having to patch.


8 July 2002 V1.0.0.3
====================
1) BUG Fix: Corrected colours that are fetched during the time that the VIC attempts to
read from memory whilst the CPU still controls the address lines.


17 June 2002 V1.0.0.2
=====================
1) BUG Fix: Intermittent loss of display during full screen mode operation.


7 June 2002 V1.0.0.1 (up to 30% faster emulation using frame skip)
====================
1) New option on settings dialog to skip alternate frames (on by default). Use this
option if emulation speed is a priority.
2) Option to alter the synchronisation for full screen mode. "VBL Sync" (on by default)
is the slow but gives cleaner display switching. Line Sync is faster but may show small
visual glitches during animation.


7 June 2002 V1.0.0 (Better disk and sound)
==================
1) The 1541 disk can be written to and can be saved to a D64 file on the host computer.
Changes to the current 1541 disk are not immediately saved to the host computer storage.
Changes to the current 1541 disk must be explicitly saved to the host PC through the Disk
menu.

2) Ability to insert a blank pre formatted disk.

3) Finally fixed the last of the sound glitches (arrgh!). If any one has sound
problems on 100% speed, then please let me know.

4) Synchronised screen redraw in full screen mode.


10 May 2002 V0.9D (Better disk and sound)
=================
1) Improved disk drive emulation compatibility to allow more turbo loaders to work.
All loaders that are known to me at this time will now load.

2) Removed excessive function calls to the DirectSound "GetStatus" call. The result
is that the sound play back does not "jump" as much.


17 April 2002 V0.9C
====================
1) Fixed a random chance of a "divide by zero" GPF when pausing and un-pausing the
emulation. This situation occurs when changing screen mode or accessing menus.

2) Fixed a bug with the CIA TOD clocks not counting up in correct order with respect
to "rollover and carry" from the LSBs to the MSBs.

3) Fixed disk drive emulation to cause a false SINC condition between changing
disks. Some software uses the false SINC as a means to detect when a disk has been
removed.

4) Fixed a bug that caused sprites in the patched demo "Demus Interruptus" not to
show correctly. This was because "Christian Bauer's VIC-II Article" did not mention
that the increment that is added to the internal register MCBASE (for sprite
pointer indexing) is dependant on the current value of MCBASE. After debugging the
demo "Demus Interruptus" I realised what happening and I was forced to rip this
table from VICE1.7

I would much love to know the logic in this table:-

const int vic_ii_sprites_crunch_table[64] =
{
1,   4,   3, /* 0 */
4,   1,   0, /* 3 */
-1,  0,   1, /* 6 */
4,   3,   4, /* 9 */
1,   8,   7, /* 12 */
8,   1,   4, /* 15 */
3,   4,   1, /* 18 */
0,  -1,   0, /* 21 */
1,   4,   3, /* 24 */
4,   1,  -8, /* 27 */
-9, -8,   1, /* 30 */
4,   3,   4, /* 33 */
1,   0,  -1, /* 36 */
0,   1,   4, /* 39 */
3,   4,   1, /* 42 */
8,   7,   8, /* 45 */
1,   4,   3, /* 48 */
4,   1,   0, /* 51 */
-1,  0,   1, /* 54 */
4,   3,   4, /* 57 */
1, -40, -41, /* 60 */
0
};

This is how the table would look in Hoxs64 V0.9B as per
"Christian Bauer's VIC-II Article" :-

const int vic_ii_sprites_crunch_table[64] =
{
1,   1,   1, /* 0 */
1,   1,   1, /* 3 */
1,   1,   1, /* 6 */
1,   1,   1, /* 9 */
1,   1,   1, /* 12 */
1,   1,   1, /* 15 */
1,   1,   1, /* 18 */
1,   1,   1, /* 21 */
1,   1,   1, /* 24 */
1,   1,   1, /* 27 */
1,   1,   1, /* 30 */
1,   1,   1, /* 33 */
1,   1,   1, /* 36 */
1,   1,   1, /* 39 */
1,   1,   1, /* 42 */
1,   1,   1, /* 45 */
1,   1,   1, /* 48 */
1,   1,   1, /* 51 */
1,   1,   1, /* 54 */
1,   1,   1, /* 57 */
1,   1,   1, /* 60 */
0
};

4 February 2002 V0.9B
======================
1) Fixed a GPF memory read in the VIC code.


3 February 2002 V0.9A
======================
1) Improved the DirectSound secondary buffer re-synchronisation. De-synchronisation
occurs as a result of the DirectSound play back clock rate being independent to the
clock that controls the emulation speed. All those random noise glitches should not
occur on machines that can maintain 100% emulation speed.

2) Fixed a CPU port bug that caused the status of cassette play button not be read
correctly until the port was written to. The two sided tape loaders should now work
as they did in version 0.7.

3) The disk track head position will be left unchanged between inserting disks.
The two disk game "Press Your Luck" will now load.

4) Fixed a minor VIC display bug that could occasionally cause multicolour text
to be incorrectly masked against a sprite.

5) Added a scrollbar to the debug window.

6) Added execute break point capability. An execute break point is toggled by
left clicking on the address label of a mnemonic.

7) Fixed the ARR undocumented opcode.


12 November 2001 V0.9
=====================
More of those fancy demos should now display.
FLI and IFLI should work. (It was sort of working before, if you wrote a program that
worked with the old Hoxs64 incompatible timing.)

1) Timing of interrupts with respect to the VIC --> CPU BA line has been fixed (I hope).
This information is not easy to find.

2) Introduced a 12 clock cycle delay between the "g-access" data fetch of the VIC and
the rendering of the pixels. Pixels are rendered with the colour register values that
are available at the clock that they are rendered, as opposed to the clock that the
pixels are fetched.

3) Fix to allow the border to be turned off by a switch from a 24 line to a 25 line
display while the raster line is any where on the "top comparison line". This
information seems to be missing from Christian Bauer's VIC Article.

4) Reworked CPU and VIC timing to allow the CPU to influence some additional
operations of the VIC at the same clock cycle as the write to the VIC registers.

5) Fixed the VIC to fetch the lower 4 bits of the current CPU opcode when accessing the
colour RAM while the address lines are in use by the CPU.

6) Introduced a 2 clock cycle delay (was 1 clock delay) between the CPU write to $D011
and the time that VIC goes from idle to display state given the various logic rules.


3 November 2001 V0.8D
=====================
1) Set disk drive speed from PAL Speed up to 1Mhz. Introduced a 1 clock cycle delay
for the disk drive to see changes to the serial bus. This has the effect of allowing
a wider variety of disk turbo loaders to now work.
2) "Limit speed" and "show speed" options in the settings menu.


30 October 2001 V0.8C
=====================
Fixed a sound bug that caused NT4 service pack3+ machines not to initialise the sound.
Fixed a minor bug with the CPU port.


26 October 2001 V0.8B
=====================
Fixed a sound bug that caused garbage noise if the sound emulation was turned off
and then a menu option was later selected.


26 October 2001 V0.8
=====================
1) Not NT tested yet. SID (Sound Interface Device) now works. The only the filters
are missing.


15 October 2001 V0.7D
=====================
1) Sprites can now be displayed in the extreme left and right edge underneath the
border.


10 October 2001 V0.7C
=====================
1) Fixed incorrect background colour underneath the left right border.
2) Fixed a compiler optimisation error by disabling optimisations for the CIA
execute cycle. The game Bounty Bob now works again as it did in V0.7


10 October 2001 V0.7B
=====================
1) Left and right border can now be opened.
2) Fixed a display bug caused by a multicolour foreground pixel being cut in
half by the left border thus causing an incorrect colour. This was noticed in the
title screen of California Games as an odd coloured vertical bar near the left
border.


9 October 2001 V0.7
===================
1) New 1541 Disk drive emulation. The drive is read only and supports the D64
file format. Turbo and custom loaders should run except the so called "Blast"
game collection. This should not be a problem because "Blast" disks allow you
to manually load  games by their filenames.


2) Improved DirectX handling with full screen mode and enhanced support for
windowed mode.
The following windowed modes are now supported:
32 bit colour
24 bit colour
16 bit colour
8 bit palletised (256 colours)

The following full screen resolutions are now supported:
400x300
320x240
320x200

3) Fixed bug with 24 bit colour renderer.

4) DirectX 3 support for NT4 with service pack 3 or higher.


6 August 2001 V0.6b
===================
Small speed optimisation of VIC-II.


29 July 2001 V0.6a
==================
Fixed CIA2 ports to read highs when DDR set to input. Beamrider now works.


25 July 2001 V0.6
=================
Initial release. The CPU, VIC, and MMU are fully functional. The CIA is
functional with no support for devices on the "user" nor the "serial" port.
There is no SID (Sound Interface Device). There is no disk support. The so
called DE00 programs are not fully supported but it must be remembered that few
real C64s can run DE00 programs.
