The current version of AGS in sourceforge SVN now has the following
features added:
+ Can communicate with an emulator via TCP/IP
+ New Hi-res graphics conversion routines, slightly improved since
previous post.
+ Menu is now the same as before except it is shown in Hi-res page 1
and uses a non monospaced arial font.
+ Tuned SOS driver read loop and shaved off 21 cycles from the loop.
This makes it more than fast enough to keep up with 115200 baud. This
also makes it run faster than 115200 baud in an emulator.
+ Nick fixed improper configuration flags, fixing IRQ configuration
errors among other things
The general direction for this is to implement a better front-end with
game screenshots. I'm working out a way to collect those, but in the
meanwhile wanted to give you folks the good news about the current
progress.
Note: If you want to use this version, you have to type HGR before
typing IN#2 -- I'll be fixing that very soon of course. :-)
