After a long pause here on the blog, I decided to share my own Sord build for Mess. Compared to the original official version, my brother and I added a few interesting features to the emulator. To prevent the new functions from being confused with the original, we have created a new mode named m5p_lzr. Below are some of the new features
- 64kBi and 64kRx memory support
- F-block type support in tape recording
- "Windows" starts by default, a menu that allows you to quickly launch the most used programs. According to the modification of Mr. Stuchlík and LZRsoft
- ROM containing BI, BG, BF, MSX1.C and CPM
- support for two 3.5 ″ floppy drives. Support for the original FD5 has been removed.(wasn't working)
- added QuickLoad support, for loading programs directly into memory. I will add the m5q format specification later.
26/09/2014 version 1.1
- added support for creating and writing dsk image disks (CPC EXTENDED) - probably it will still be quite buggy
