Atari Lynx Emulator Mac10/14/2021
For this first pass, I decided to leave as much of the original code untouched as possible. But, of course, the DS isn’t really modern hardware. And, it runs at full speed on any modern PC or Mac. It was written in 100% C++ code. It was last touched in 2004, as far as I can tell. Joust (1993) (Williams) is a Atari Lynx emulator game that you can download to havev fun with your friends.Now, as far as emulators go, Handy is pretty solid.Spent quite a bit of time on that one tonight.Anyway, the speed is actually pretty respectable all things considered. Apparently a lot of emulators don’t care — but the hardware does. Also, for those of you at home playing with the 16-bit framebuffer on the DS, you also have to set the high bit. I only had to make a slight modification to the Handy code to use BGR instead of RGB.Sorry about the craptastic quality — I had to use my DV camera and Photo Booth to capture some shots. But, I do have a couple of pics. I’m already thinking of some optimizations I can do to make it better — starting with changing the way the screen is handled, and then next putting an assembly CPU core in as well.I’m not releasing any code right now — it’s would be way to premature at this point.
