XRoar v0.20: A Dragon and Tandy CoCo emulator for your DS - Image 1Developer Ciaran Anscomb has recently announced the release of XRoar v0.20 for the DS. This homebrew application will enable users to run games originally meant for the Tandy Color Computer.

XRoar has also been released for PCs running on Mac OS X, Window32, and GP32, though this update will be focusing on the port for the Nintendo handheld.

The developer notes that version 0.20 carries interface for input configuration and snapshot saving. The XRoar's DS port now carries DLDI patching support, although its sound quality still tends to be scratchy. Here are the rest of XRoar's latest changes:
  • Don't show artifacted colors for CSS=0.
  • Better emulation of undocumented 6809 behavior.
  • New joystick axis and button mapping options.
  • Add GTK+-2 file requester.
  • Mid-instruction peripheral state sync.
  • Restructure CPU core to more accurately reflect data sheet.
  • PIA code not so intimately tied to emulator code.
  • New 5-bit NTSC cross-color renderer.
  • NTSC cross-color phase saved with snapshots.
Keep in mind that there are two download available: One is built for slot 1, while the other is built for slot 2 DS cards. XRoar v0.20's readme is accessible over at Ciaran's site via the source link - be sure to head there before attempting to run this application.
