As Juju said, ROM-creation-created ROMs still fail to boot. Do you know when this can be fixed?

* pimathbrainiac wants to use the CSE stuffs

I've got a version that runs, go ahead and give it a shot: http://buckeyedude.zapto.org/Revsoft/Wabbitemu/Beta/Wabbitemu.exe. I've updated both BootFree and rom8x, test them both and see if they work. I haven't implemented any new boot page calls for the 84pcse, so likely some things will not work, but it at least boots and runs programs.

Question, do we really need the ability to capture 640x480 screenshots?

Btw emulation seems perfect for this game. The only difference is the lack of scanline emulation, so the ghosts flickers differently than on the real calc.

EDIT: Actually i notice that some colors are wrong in screenshots, but I guess it's inevitable considering the calc has 16 or 18 bit colors, yet GIFs only have 8.

Double size GIFs were pretty much free, so they are in there. The default is 2x for the 96x64 calcs, and I haven't resolved how I'm going to handle that setting for the new LCD. As for GIF colors, unfortunately they are not perfect yet. I have a new algorithm that I want to try, but for now its just using the web safe palette + 40 custom colors.
I agree, the flickering is a little too obvious right now. I'm working on improving the LCD accuracy, trying to get it closer to how the real calc works. Clzdg and I were talking about doing some frame blurring, but my first attempt looked awful so I left it out.

As promised, I've got a new version to test. I think I have the important parts of the new hardware working. http://buckeyedude.zapto.org/Revsoft/Wabbitemu/Beta/Wabbitemu.exe
The two important things not currently working are the variable tree (meaning no variable exporting), and the debugger has nothing useful for the new LCD.

Let me know what issues you encounter, or any useful things you need.

Boy, I know calc84maniac, myself, and some others have awaited this for a long time now. I tried it out quickly, and it certainly seems to be in a basic functioning state. Of course a number of features haven't been made compatible yet, like taking screenshots, but I did manually take this one of calc84maniac's stupendous technological achievement, Steins;Gate, to show off that the hardware emulation is working at least fairly well:

You likely already know about most issues, but I'll mention two that I've discovered.

First, MicrOS does not function properly, which could suggest any number of bugs. DrDnar all but completely throws out the OS and reboots the calculator himself, so I'm guessing at least one of the low-level hardware aspects of its initialization procedure is causing issues. Perhaps DrDnar can be contacted and recruited to help debug its support, and/or you could try yourself with the full source included in the download.

Second, the performance! It's likely that you simply haven't gotten around to implementing the screen in a properly optimizer manner, but I'm seeing generally slow emulation, and unless my eyes are deceiving me, possibly a decent amount of frame skipping on top. If you'd like any assistance in understanding the (much more complicated than the 83+/84+) driver, I might be able to answer questions, or you could probably ask in IRC or make a dedicated topic to get responses from more knowledgeable people.

But a natively running 84+CSE emulator is a huge boon, so thanks for the good work, and keep it up!

Thanks for all the quick feedback. At this point most everything in the OS should be working, since it only uses a small subset of the LCD functions, which has been my primary goal up to this point.
Getting Micros working is my current state of business. Its getting into an infinite loop during initialization, something to do with setting the backlight levels. I'm hoping that once I get that working, I'll have decent hardware emulation. Having the source to that has been very helpful. I'm also hoping to use that to extend BootFree.
Performance for the LCD should not be bad at all however, it's frames are currently synced to Wabbit's display rate rather than publishing its own. This is likely what you're seeing, as data will not be updated quite when you expected.
I may hit up people at some point with hardware questions but for now I think I have a handle on most of it. Obviously the current version isn't very useful as an emulator yet, but I did want to let you guys know that its getting there, and semi functioning. I'm hopeful that I'll have something decently usable in the next week, depending on Clzdg and my schedules'.

Actually, I am surprised you were even able to send APPS at all, since that didn't work for me

I'm curious, which apps did you send and what error did you get? App sending should be working just fine, since its only a slight alteration to the current method of loading apps.

Also, it would be nice if we could setup the LCD to 320x240 instead of 230x155

You can, you just can't do it with the skin. I'm considering setups with a larger skin, but by default I think this will is how it will look.

For completeness here's a list of known issues:

• Port 24 is not quite correct
• Double wide pixels don't work currently
• Partial image support has issues
• Currently the lcd is always reported as active
• Interlacing does not display correctly
• Not sure if ORG mode is implemented correctly
• No backlight implementation
• GIFs broken for all calculators
• Variables are not listed
• Debugger has no useful information about the new LCD

Maybe exporting programs ?

Eventually. Its a lot of work.

Does it have to ungroup 8xg files?

Sort of. Groups are stored as ungrouped files, not as a single unit, so the easiest way to transfer them is to send them individually. I'm not sure what format they need to be in, to be interpreted by the calc as a group.

I can't get Google Play on my Kindle. Can someone upload the apk file to some file sharing website or here so I can get it?

I've submitted it to the Amazon store as well, but it's still going through the review process. Available for kindle here

Okay I can open the menu bar thingy, but it seems that it recognizes only *.rom files, not *.8xp files.

I think this should work now. The issue was that files after first searching were not being added to the list.

What specifically makes you need 4.0.4?

Mostly fragments, but there are several other APIs that require 15 that make development not awful. I can fix the fragment issue by changing them to use the support library, but the fragment subclasses are not included so I need to re-implement those.

Well, I figured out how to break it Although, I wouldn't say break it as much as something about it doesn't properly emulate a real 84+.

I'll take a look

Yeah I use android 2.3.5... But as aeTIos I use to have a working (although buggy) version of wabbitemu running on it.

Yes the old version used to work on everything greater than Cupcake, but that's because it was literally just an activity to wrap the Wabbit core. Eventually it can be 2.3 compatible just requires significant changes.

Thanks! It's better now. Are tig files not supported? I like the color picker.

TIG files are really just zip files and currently the zip extraction code is windows only. Not a huge priority unforunately. Same with sound, doable but Windows only currently and not a big priority.
