Major Version 2.0!

Major Version 2.0!
Update 2025/09/12: Version 2.02 brings a better support for game controllers, including direct control of the timelapse feature, making it very handy to use!
Update 2025/8/3: A new version 2.01 has been released, with many improvements and fixes, thanks to all the feedback we received from the community. This update addresses various bugs reported by our users over the past month and introduces several enhancements, including improvements to the timelapse feature.

We are thrilled to announce that this new version, the result of over a year of dedicated effort, introduces complete and accurate emulation of the Amstrad Plus Models. We have tested a significant number of games and demos available for the Amstrad Plus, and they are running smoothly.

Another exciting feature is the Timelapse function. This allows you to pause the emulation and go backward up to one minute in the past! It's incredibly useful if you want to perfect a game, or save a snapshot at a specific moment.

In addition to reading CSL files, you can now record them in real time.

As always, this update includes numerous bug fixes and improvements in the emulation of Amstrad CPC components. We've incorporated a host of new tests and verified many games and demos to ensure the best experience.

Again, a huge thank you to everyone involved in the project! Your support and kind messages on various forums and Discord servers mean a lot to us. Special thanks to Made for the marvelous illustration, and to Steve Basford for his assistance with the English translation of the User's Guide.
