I’m happy to finally be able to let the cat out of the bag. Darron Schall and myself have been working on a low level 6502\/6510 emulator and, based on that, on a Commodore C64 emulator\/simulator.<\/p>\n
The emulator is completely written in Actionscript 3 and runs on Flash Player 9. It loads the original binary C64 Kernel ROMs at runtime, and executes them just like the original hardware would do.<\/p>\n
The sources are released under GPL, get them here: Quoting Darrons blog post from today<\/a>:<\/p>\n It’s still a work in progress, and we’re looking for hardware-nerds to step up to the plate and help us finish it. The CPU code is complete, but hasn’t been extensively tested. The memory code is a work in progress, and we haven’t had a chance to start on the display code yet. Still though, it’s a good start.<\/p>\n At this point, we’re just running the CPU as fast as possible without trying to get the timing completely accurate. On the debug Flash Player, it runs at ~2.5 MHz. On the release Flash Player, it runs at closer to 6 or 7 MHz. This is a good thing, as the original Commodore chip only runs at 1 MHz. So, in theory, it should be possible to emulate the games in real-time without any slow down or speed delays (holy @#!@).<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I’m happy to finally be able to let the cat out of the bag.
