C16 / Plus4 for MEGA65 V2.0 - Github: https://github.com/piso77/C16-MEGA65

Before you update: the core no longer contains any ROMs and does not start without them. Copy kernal.bin, basic.bin and c1541.bin to /c16 on the SD card, plus 3plus1lo.bin and 3plus1hi.bin for the Plus/4; the README explains how to get them. The menu has changed, so also replace /c16/c16mega65 with the file in this release.

New

• All ROMs are loaded from the SD card at startup
  
• Custom ROMs in the MiSTer core's format, via the new ROM menu item or /c16/custom.rom
  
• TED updated to FPGATED 1.9 (FLI, Timer 2, border and badline fixes), with 16-bit TED sound
  
• NAE/CAE SID card: two SIDs (6581/8580), stereo, DigiBlaster; replaces the single SID of V1.0
  
• PRG files start automatically after loading

Fixed

• F1–F7 now type the C16's F1–F7, and F8 is the C16's Help key
  
• Opening the menu with Help no longer types HELP into BASIC
  
• PRG loader: wrong BASIC pointers after loading
  
• Menu scaling options were off by two steps
  
• SID envelopes did not always hold at zero
  
• Plus/4: 3-plus-1 starts with F1 + Return, like on the real machine
  
• Joystick port output pins were left floating on R5/R6 boards
  
• Wrong version string and outdated help texts

Pascal65 0.36-beta is now available. This is a BIG release. I am excited about this one because it fixes my biggest hang up, the slow compiler. Here are the main fixes and new features:

• SPEED. SPEED. SPEED. After fixing a major bottleneck, I am finally reaping the benefits of rewriting the entire compiler in assembly language. For larger files, the compiler is 10 times as fast. Even for small files, it's now just a few seconds. The FiveDice game went from taking 200 seconds to just 16 seconds in the emulator.

• Dynamic arrays are now supported.

• The runtime library can now be either statically linked or dynamically loaded at runtime. The default is now dynamically loaded (which speeds up linking a lot). Compiler directives were added for selecting the runtime linking.

• A compiler warning was added when an expression might result in a loss of precision, such as assigning an integer to a byte.

• Explicit type casting was added.

• Several bugs were fixed.
