Stella 2.8
Now you can enjoy all of your favorite Atari 2600 games on your PC thanks to this game For many years, the Atari 2600 reigned supreme as the most popular game console on the market more>> Now you can enjoy all of your favorite Atari 2600 games on your PC thanks to this game
For many years, the Atari 2600 reigned supreme as the most popular game console on the market.
Years later, Ataris stranglehold on the market would dissipate as the Nintendo Entertainment System redefined 8-bit gaming, but die-hard fans and collectors still continue to support the Atari.
One would think that the weak Atari 2600 should be simple to emulate, because of its primitive architecture.
It is very difficult to write a efficient and working emulator because the Atari programmers used many devious tricks to make such an early machine to function.
Enhancements
- Added CRT simulation effects as described in the AtariAge posting
- CRT emulation for Stella. For now, this requires OpenGL 2.0 or
- greater with support for GLSL (GL Shading Language). This code
- will be expanded on and optimized in future releases.
- Adding editing of extended RAM in the debugger RAM UI. The RAM
- spreadsheet now shows the entire address space of RAM in the
- system, in 128 byte increments. The first bank shown is zero-page,
- with the others following in consecutive order. The UI takes care
- of read vs. write port differences, so you dont have to worry
- about the offsets. For now, all SuperChip based ROMs (EFSC, F4SC,
- F6SC, F8SC) as well as 3E, CV, E7 and FASC are supported.
- All ROMs which include SC extended RAM will now have memory erased if
- you attempt to read from the write port. Related to this,
- entering/exiting the debugger will no longer erase the extended RAM.
- Patching of ROM for bankswitch types 0840, SB, UA and X07 is now
- implemented, but hasnt been extensively tested.
- Visual improvements to the CPU register UI in the debugger; the
- SP/A/X/Y registers now have separate decimal and binary views.
- Tweaked paddle control so that all positions are reachable in game
- 4 of Activision Casino in both NTSC and PAL versions.
- SuperCharger/AR ROMs now start with a random value in the CPU
- accumulator. This should fix issues with Dragonstomper always
- starting in exactly the same state.
- Auto-detection for 3F bankswitching improved; several ROMs
- previously detected as F8 now work correctly.
- Updated internal ROM properties database to ROM-Hunter version 5
- (thanks go to RomHunter for his tireless research in this area).
- Added -exitlauncher commandline argument and associated UI item,
- to specify what happens when you exit a ROM. Normally, exiting a
- ROM brings up the ROM launcher, but this can be disabled for those
- using an external frontend (in which case exiting a ROM also exits
- from Stella).
- Re-added -fastscbios commandline argument, and added an associated
- UI item. When enabled, the SuperCharger load bars are now completely
- removed (and not just sped up as in previous releases).
- The -listrominfo commandline argument now shows all ROM
- information built in to the internal database, taking into account
- any information in personal stella.pro files.

Hyperspace 1.2 provides a great screen saver which sends its users on a virtual trip through a wormhole, just like the ones in some sci-fi TV shows and movies. Meanwhile, nebulas and stars fly by. Hyperspace is available in English, French, and German.
Enhancements:
- Hyperspace is now compatible with Mac OS X 10.6 ("Snow Leopard").
- Also, this version of Hyperspace now uses your computer's vector unit (AltiVec on PPC, SSE2 on Intel) to make some calculations. This makes the screen saver run even faster, but it means that the screen saver is no longer compatible with G3-based Power Macs, or Hackintoshes that do not have an SSE2-compatible vector unit.
Requirements:
- Mac OS X 10.4.3 or later for pixel & vertex shading
- ATI Rage 128 video card or later
- CPU with AltaVec (PPC Macs) or SSE2 (Intel Macs)
- 1.5GHz CPU or faster

It reads and writes TIFF, PICT, PICS and MacPaint files, providing compatibility with many other applications, including programs for scanning, processing, editing, publishing and analyzing images. It supports many standard image processing functions, including contrast enhancement, density profiling, smoothing, sharpening, edge detection, median filtering, and spatial convolution with user defined kernels.
Image can be used to measure area, mean, centroid, perimeter, etc. of user defined regions of interest. It also performs automated particle analysis and provides tools for measuring path lengths and angles. Spatial calibration is supported to provide real world area and length measurements. Density calibration can be done against radiation or optical density standards using user specified units. Results can be printed, exported to text files, or copied to the Clipboard.
A tool palette supports editing of color and gray scale images, including the ability to draw lines, rectangles and text. It can flip, rotate, invert and scale selections. It supports multiple windows and 8 levels of magnification. All editing, filtering, and measurement functions operate at any level of magnification and are undoable.
Image directly supports Data Translation and Scion frame grabber cards for capturing images or movie sequences using a TV camera. Acquired images can be shading corrected and frame averaged. Other frame grabbers are supported via plug-in modules.
Image can be customized in three ways: via a built-in Pascal-like macro language, via externally compiled plug-in modules and on the Pascal source code level.

Asymptote 1.44
Descriptive vector graphics language that provides a natural coordinate-based framework for technical drawing more>> Descriptive vector graphics language that provides a natural coordinate-based framework for technical drawing
Asymptote is a powerful descriptive vector graphics language that provides a natural coordinate-based framework for technical drawing. Labels and equations are typeset with LaTeX, for high-quality PostScript output.
A major advantage of Asymptote over other graphics packages is that it is a programming language, nor just a graphics program.
Main features:>
- provides a portable standard for typesetting mathematical figures, just as TeX/LaTeX has become the standard for typesetting equations.
- inspired by MetaPost, with a much cleaner, powerful C++-like programming syntax and floating-point numerics;
- runs on all major platforms (UNIX, MacOS, Microsoft Windows);
- mathematically oriented (e.g. rotation of vectors by complex multiplication);
- LaTeX typesetting of labels (for document consistency);
- uses simplex method and deferred drawing to solve overall size constraint issues between fixed-sized objects (labels and arrowheads) and objects that should scale with figure size;
- fully generalizes MetaPost path construction algorithms to three dimensions;
- compiles commands into virtual machine code for speed without sacrificing portability;
- high-level graphics commands are implemented in the Asymptote language itself, allowing them to be easily tailored to specific applications.
Enhancements:
- Full interactive 3D support has been added to Asymptote, with the option ofgenerating and embedding 3D PRC data in PDF files or rendering scenesdirectly with Asymptotes own fast OpenGL-based renderer. The implicitcasts from 3D to 2D objects were removed (in favour of call explicit callsto project). A path[][] texpath(string s) routine was added to convertstring into the paths that TeX would fill. Add boolean stroke parameter wasadded for shading (and clipping to) stroked paths. The Circle and Arcroutines were fixed. Autoscaling of graph axes limits is now disabled bydefault. A path3 path3(path p, triple plane(pair)=XYplane) constructor wasadded; the path3 routines were moved to C++ code. Optimized and robustversions of the intersection, windingnumber, inside, and surface extremaroutines were implemented. The lighting routines were replaced by theOpenGL model. Each Asymptote process once again uses a separatecurrentpen. A segmentation fault and an incorrect parameter in theDelaunay triangulation routine were fixed. This major overhaul of thethree-dimensional graphics has necessitated a few backwardsincompatibilities.
