News from Metalbrain:

Hi all!

Even though screen emulation ain’t 100% perfect yet, I promised a fix for F200 users this weekend, and right now it’s already better than the last version, so here it is:

http://www.speccy.org/metalbrain/GP2Xpectrum1.5b2.zip

What’s new:
– Small timing fixes.
– Screen rendering code has been totally rewritten from scratch, and now border is completely
emulated (Sentinel letters can be seen), and visual effects of many demos are finally perfect
(Overscan, Shock and similar). Some demos (such as MDA) are still failing though.
– On F200 model, battery level ain’t polled, avoiding the resulting massive slowdown on
that model.

Beware: I don’t have a F200 model, so the fix for F200 haven’t been tested, but I think it should work.
