Hi folks,


welcome to the 2022 Release of Atari++, the portable atari emulator for Linux, Apple and windows. For Christmas this year, I am releasing version 1.85 of Atari++. This release fixes a couple of configuration and error handling issues where, upon a configuration error, you could not reach the menu anymore. It also includes an improved configuration script and makefile that includes additional tests for compiler switches. This release of Atari++ should be again fine to compile with the latest g++ and clang compiler.

Hi folks,


welcome to the 2021 Release of Atari++, the portable atari emulator for Linux and windows. The version has been updated to 1.84, fixing mostly issues for building Atari++ with latest g++ compilers, and running the emulator on the Raspi. The alsa sound interface of the Raspi seems to be somewhat incomplete, thus some system calls fail on it, but with some minor tweaks and workarounds, you can get it working.

Hi folks,


welcome to the 2020 Easter Release of Atari++, the portable atari emulator for Linux and windows. This release includes new bug fixes, mostly in the ALSA sound driver, due to a cycle counting bug in the CPU emulation, and in the ATX support, where timing was made more precise and the support for weak sectors was fixed.

Hi folks,


welcome to the 2020 Release of Atari++, the portable atari emulator for Linux and windows. This is a bug-fix release that does not include major new features, but includes a fixed ATX support, a new version of Basic++, namely 1.08, and improved artifact rendering.

Hi folks,


welcome to the 2015 Release of Atari++, the portable atari emulator for Linux and windows. This release changes quite some of the internals and provides many new features, thus the bump to a new major release series, the 1.80 release for this time. The major new feature is a built-in Basic interpreter, called Basic++, that is not only much faster than Atari Basic, but also includes some new features while still fitting into the 8K ROM space reserved for it. Additional features are the improved SIO sound emulation, the improved Tape emulation that can decode audio recordings directly, and the improved disk emulation that supports now various drive types.

Hi folks,


welcome to the 2014 Release of Atari++, the portable atari emulator for Linux and windows. Except for the usual bug fixes, this release features a new X11 front-end providing a serious speedup even on slow machines using the XVideo extension, better support for the 1010 tape drive and a partially reworked serial interface support. It also comes with a completely new System Disk featuring tools around Os++ and a complete Os++ Manual and Memory Map documenting its internals. As usual, the sources are available as well.
