2.81 contains many bug fixes for all machines and some new features mentioned below. It is mainly focused on resolving issues when used on a RiscPC running either RISC OS 3.7x or RISC OS 5.
New features:
- *ADFBootFloppy can now be used with HD installed games to run the in-built ADFFS Boot script. This avoids having to extract and maintain the scripts in HD installed games, ensuring they're always using the most recent Boot script. For example replace the James Pond !Run contents with:
Code: Select all
ADFBootFloppy F1021101
- !ADFFS will now auto-load itself when opening a JFD file for the first time, provided !ADFFS has been seen. This avoids manually loading !ADFFS prior to opening a floppy image
- Whilst a game is running, screen memory is now cache-enabled by default on RiscPC with a StrongARM fitted and cache maintenance is performed before VIDC20's DMA reads the memory. This currently only works for games running under the JIT, but will be extended to games that require VIDC1 emulation
- *MEMA added to replace *MEMORYA. In addition to Byte, Half-word and Double-word it also supports strings, multiple entries on the same command line, skipping to memory locations and performs cache maintenance
- *HideCommandWindow added to suppress "Press SPACE or click mouse to continue" that some games trigger when exiting back to the Desktop
- Icons have been created for all games that were missing them and many game icons now have masks
- Most game Boot scripts have been updated to make use of new features
- 4MB RAM minimum
- RISC OS 3.10 or newer
- ADFFS must be installed to a hard-drive
- 32MB RAM minimum
- RISC OS 3.x, 4.x or 5.23 Jun 9th 2016 or newer. Note that some games will not work on RISC OS 4.x due to the way it allocates screen memory in 1MB blocks. RISC OS 6 is not officially supported
- RISC OS 5.27 Nov 16th 2018 or newer (download link)
- To get legacy TV MODEs working (0 to 15), you can try this Monitor file for 75Hz EGA on VGA
EGAonVGAMonitor.zip
- Any revision Pi, from Pi 1 to Pi 4, including Pi Zero
- RISC OS 5.27 Nov 16th 2018 or newer (download link)
- Ensure fake_vsync_isr=1 is uncommented in !Boot.Loader.CONFIG/TXT
- You must disable GPU mode change support using the applicable method below. Note that if you have multiple entries in CMDLINE/TXT, they should be separated with spaces and not new lines.
Non-NOOBS RISC OS:- Hold SHIFT and browse to !Boot.Loader from the root of the drive
- Create CMDLINE/TXT with the following contents:
Code: Select all
disable_mode_changes
- Hold SHIFT at power on to enter the NOOBS configuration
- Select Edit Config
- Add the following to CMDLINE.TXT:
Code: Select all
disable_mode_changes
- (optional) For a blocky pixel retro gaming look, turn off the default GPU filtered upscaling by editing !Boot.Loader.CONFIG/TXT and add the following lines:
Code: Select all
#set GPU upscaling to nearest neighbour scaling_kernel=8
- (optional) If your display supports 50Hz, you can force the Pi to use 50Hz by editing !Boot.Loader.CONFIG/TXT and adding the following lines. Uncomment one of the hdmi_mode values:
At other monitor frequencies, games will still run at the correct rate but micro stutter may be noticeable where extra frames are added to make up the differenceCode: Select all
hdmi_ignore_edid=0xa5000080 # hdmi_group=1 #576p @ 50Hz #hdmi_mode=17 # #720p @ 50Hz #hdmi_mode=19 # #1080p @ 50Hz hdmi_mode=31
Known issues
- Does not support the protection used by Chequered Flag (RO2 version) when running on RISC OS 3.1x (talks directly to the FDC via IOC)
- Shelling out of the desktop (Ctrl-Shift-F12 twice) hangs under RedSquirrel if an HD floppy is mounted on RO3.5+ ARM710
- OMAP based cores are not supported. When changing to a legacy mode, the system will hard-lock on a black screen
- Some games that use overscan may result in a blank screen on a RiscPC
- 26bit WIMP app support under RISC OS 5 can randomly lock the machine (related to a feature of RISC OS, which doesn't preserve memory page access across task switches)
- Hardware scrolling is still in effect when returning from an emulated legacy mode, to the desktop under RISC OS 5
- When switching between an emulated mode and the desktop, logical memory space is leaked eventually resulting in logical memory exhaustion. Refer to the ROOL discussion for further details
- JIT will not work under RPCEmu as it does not generate Page Faults when User mode writes to pages with Supervisor only write permissions
- Red Squirrel will crash when mounting a floppy image, if emulating an IOC machine with 16MB of RAM
- CTRL-SHIFT-F12 will not terminate the following games, which run natively (this is the ARMv5+ list, many more games run native on IOMD):
- Botkiller
- Exodus
- Freddy's Folly
- Giant Killer
- Gloop (from Logic Mania)
- MicroDrive 32M
- Minotaur
- SunBurst
- TwinWorld
- Wolfenstein 3D
- Zool - Ninja of the 'Nth' Dimension
- Games that alter the Wimp Mode might cause a lock when exiting back to the Wimp. This appears to be an external issue when the Wimp can't handle the MODE. Titles need patching to not mess with the Wimp:
- Cyborg
- Dreadnoughts
- Guile
- Put It!
- Wizard Apprentice
- WIMP based titles may lock the machine:
- Abuse
- Alderbaran (not working - hard-locks the system)
- Black Angel
- Demon's Lair
- E-Type II
- Elite
- Emotions - Search for Humanity
- EuroBlaster (from Flying High)
- Fervour
- Foray
- Frak!
- Global Effect
- Hamsters
- Haunted House
- High Risc Racing
- Ixion
- Joust (from Flying High)
- Karma - The Flight Trainer
- K.V.
- Mah-Jong Patience
- Merp (from Mirror Image and Merp)
- Premier Manager
- Scrabble
- Shuggy
- SimCity
- TANKS
- The Chaos Engine
- Virtual Golf
- WaveLength
- Dominate - has corruption on the wipeout screen, which is corruption on the original floppy. Need to source another copy to image
- Formula Fun - doesn't hide the text cursor and doesn't wait on the track map screen
- Frak! - music is glitchy and the game has a screensaver, which you can't get out of without hitting ESC
- Hostages - Music might be wrong. Check against a physical RO2, ARM2 based machine
- James Pond 2: Robocod (original release) - music key is wrong. Also happens on physical, might be related to a RISC OS update or Module version
- Caverns does not scroll correctly on a RiscPC with VRAM fitted
- Caverns does not display the high-score/ship on a RiscPC running RISC OS 5
- Rotor does not work on a RiscPC
- Games that rely on specific video timings or geometry to palette swap or set the Pointer position may not be correct on IOC with LCDGameModes enabled or IOMD based machines
- Sound is currently very jittery on a RiscPC with a StrongARM fitted, when the JIT is performing cache maintenance. For example when a game starts up or is using self-modifying code
- Using CTRL-SHIFT-F12 to terminate a game on IOMD can result in the Desktop inadvertently shutting down
- The following games crash when installed to long paths:
- Abuse
- Wonderland

Changes since 2.80:
- JIT Abort handler wasn't clearing the Device Vector claims on IOMD
- GOARMxJIT wasn't flushing the I-cache
- ADFScreenCaching wasn't included in the IOMD 32bit build and wasn't called by ADFBootFloppy on IOMD 32bit build. It was also corrupting R12 if called by Entry_ADFBootFloppy
- ADFScreenCaching now works on RO 3.71 SA
- JIT report_abort now handles aborts occuring during JIT initialisation
- JIT call_vector_claim was disabling FIQ instead of IRQ on entry and was corrupting R13 on IOMD due to the lack of a NOP after LDMIA R13, {R13}^
- JIT restore_machine_state wasn't restoring the VSync event correctly
- JIT CACHEOP_CLEAN_CODELET wasn't invalidating the I cache on StrongARM
- Added an STR preceding all STM^ on IOMD builds to workaround a StrongARM rev.2 erratum
- JIT call_device_claimant now allocates a transient stack for the vector call, to avoid potential re-entrancy issues
- JIT the following instructions didn't include a NOP after the MSR on IOMD 32bit:
- <alu>S PC, ...
- TSTP/TEQP/CMPP/CMNP
- LDM Rn{!}, {<reg_list>, PC}^
- MOVS PC, Rn, ...
- JIT core was corrupting the UND stack on IOMD 26bit if the 1st instruction seen was a Copro that needed passing to the previous claimant
- JIT IOMD debug screen output was Black, instead of White
- JIT BL codelet reduced to 9 instructions on 32bit RISC OS
- JFD imager now checks if the disk selection was cancelled, before running the actual imager
- JFD imager disk selection switched to Wimp v3.00 and now defines the menu width
- JIT report_JIT was calling Debugger_Disassemble with SPSR set to the current CPU mode
- EventV handler wasn't claiming the Key event when a task is being terminated
- JIT call_device_claimant now preserves the entry SPSR to avoid SPSR corruption when passing IRQ back to RISC OS on IOMD
- JIT IRQ handler on IOMD was checking IRQ status registers instead of IRQ request registers, causing unnecessary IRQ's to be passed to the OS and game
- JIT IRQ handler on IOMD was corrupting R13 if an IRQ occurred whilst PC was inside a codelet, if there were no IRQ's to pass to the OS
- *MEMA added to reduce Boot script sizes and perform cache ops
- Moved RunType aliases to !Boot and altered so ADFFS will start up if it's not already loaded. This means !ADFFS only needs to be seen during boot and not run to open floppy images
- *HideCommandWindow added to prevent "Press SPACE .." being prompted when a script exits back to the Wimp
- GOARM3JIT now passes to *ADFGO to avoid code duplication
- JIT reset_appspace_L2PT no longer sets page zero access to read/write
- JIT merged ARMop and non-ARMop codepaths and back-ported RO5 ARMop to 26bit builds
- JIT on Low Vector the abort handler wasn't checking for conditional hypercalls, which could cause conditional Page Zero LDR/LDM hypercalls to be overwritten
- added a "Filer_Boot !Boot" to !Run, to ensure its seen by the Wimp, this ensures !ADFFS.!Boot is not rerun by the Wimp when added to the boot tasks
- *ADFBootFloppy will now accept the floppy ID as a value, which will extract the Boot script from !ADFFS.obey and run it
- Added HideCommandwindow to all Boot scripts that use ECHO
- Changed all Boot scripts to use MEMA
- JIT IOC handler was clearing SSBC if the task was paged out
- JIT IOC handler was only processing the first register in an LDM/STM that was touching IOC registers
- JIT IOC handler now emulates IRQB on IOMD
- JIT update_MEMC now only alters the Sound DMA state if its actually changed
- JIT debug via our_XOS_WriteC on IOMD now validates MEMC_Vinit (Rockfall had a bug that pointed the video start into its codespace)
- Writes to MEMC CR now ignore Sound DMA control (fixes sound in Rockfall, No Excuses and Rotor on IOMD)
- JIT wasn't enabling sub-page support on ARM7x0/ARM7500/SA
- ADFRemapVideoMemory wasn't flusing the TLB if it unmapped the MEMC section in L1PT on IOMD 26bit
- JIT TSTP/TEQP/CMPP/CMNP are now left as-is on IOMD 26bit
- Data Abort handler could have corrupt R4,R7 when passing aborts to the OS early if Instruction tracing was enabled
- JIT Page Zero abort detection was checking for <&100000 not <&4000
- JIT on IOMD 26bit the Abort handler now always sets R13 on entry as the OS Abort handler performs an LDR R13
- JIT on IOMD 26bit the UND32/ABT32 stacks are now setup during Module startup, instead of JIT startup and the UND32 stack is left imortal when ADFFS exits. The UND32 stack is only created if FPUEmulator hasn't setup a valid stack
- JIT IOMD 26bit Page Zero abort handler wasn't setting up the word aligned address when proxying writes by the OS
- JIT CACHEOP_CLEAN_APPSPACE_TO_HERE was cleaning 1 instruction too many
- JIT wasn't tracking the number of instructions processed, so could exceed JIT_max_instructions (currently 128) if it didn't exit early due to a branch
- JIT CACHEOP_CLEAN_D_INVALIDATE_I was cleaning 1 extra cache line if the last instruction was the last in the cache line
- JIT IRQ order corrected to IRQ, IRQ1v, Device Vectors
- MEMC Vinit wasn't testing for Vinit=Vend correctly when setting VIDINITA on IOMD
- IOMD if a StrongARM is present, cache flushes are performed to ensure the cached video memory is flushed:
- On entry to OS_Byte 113
- On entry to OS_Word 22
- Before writing to MEMC Vstart
- If none of the above occurred, the IRQ vector flushes before exit if VSync was active on entry
- "Boot Floppy" no longer forces Screen Caching off on StrongARM
- JIT Branch thru Zero handler could crash if entered in USR without a valid stack
- ADFJoystickKeys wasn't releasing it's ticker correctly when disabled
- SWI handler quick-check now using a slightly improved routine
- LCDGameModes updated to set LCDGM$Status when it is enabled and Boot scripts revised accordingly
- Added volume control keys: CTRL-SHIFT-Up / CTRL-SHIFT-Down in preparation for a switch to 16bit audio (2.81n)
- *JITBREAK wasn't resetting the instruction at the breakpoint to ensure the JIT is entered
- JIT now performs an OS_DelinkApplicaton when shutting down as a fail-safe
- *ADFRemapVideoMemory and *ScreenSize now add a pause after changing screen mode, before changing DA2's size, to workaround a bug in Red Squirrel that crashes the emulator
- JIT now restores the OS_Byte 114 state when shutdown (fixes Inferno's display issues when run after CTRL-SHIFT-F12 terminating Interdictor)
- JIT MRC CP15,0,Rx,C0,C? might return an ARMv3 response if the JIT was in ARMv4 mode and the cache was disabled
- JIT add a check for MRC CP15,0,Rx,C2,C? when running in ARMv4 mode
- JIT STR PC,[PC, ... was corrupting the register used for tmp2
- JIT now ensures its emulating an appropriate OS for the CPU mode. ARMv3 will drop to RO3.11 and ARMv4 will switch to RO3.71. When shutting down it will reset the emulation to the current OS
- JIT OS_SynchroniseCodeArea 0 no longer flushes the full JIT cache. It now cleans the current WimpSlot and allocated region of the RMA. All codelets that aren't immortal are cleared
- JIT updated APCS-R Clib to 6.14 as most OS_SynchroniseCodeAreas 0 have been replaced with ranged syncs
- JIT ARMv4 cache consistency checker wasn't checking MOV PC,PC correctly (Burn'Out [SA] intro @ B8B0)
- JIT environment_handlers was not marking Environment handler codelets as immortal (fixes Burn'Out [SA] crash when run under the ARMv4 JIT)
- JIT when the ARMv4 JIT is active all JITMEMORYA are now made persistent to cover OS_SynchroniseCodeAreas clearing the JIT code cache (fixes Burn'Out [SA]) (2.81rc1)
- *ADFCRC added to allow memory to be CRC checked before patching
- Modified the APD decoder to retain R12 as a pointer to VARS and adjusted all VARS references to be relative to R12
- Removed the embeded MFM CRC table from the 1772 emulator, its now calculated when an APD is loaded
- APD decoder no longer uses a hardcoded buffer limit, its now extended as required (fixes aborts when loading 1.6MB APD's)
- Added CRC checks to boot scripts that modify game code (up to F1007201)
- Alias$RunType_FCE / FE3 modified to support longer file paths
- Added CRC checks to boot script that modify code (2.81rc2)
- *ADFOpen might have trigger an error trying to open a Filer window if it had already reported a Wimp error trying to open the file
- ADFFS$CRC now set when ADFFS is loaded, to avoid errors in Boot scripts that check file CRC's

NOTE: You must use "Boot floppy" to run supported games. If you don't, you could end up with a machine that isn't bootable, as some games alter the CMOS. Provided "Boot floppy" is used, ADFFS will prevent games from altering both the CMOS and unplugging modules
DO NOT try to run a game by launching it's Icon - it will almost certainly damage your machine
