The emulator is written in C, I'm using DJGPP to compile it. The CPU
is based on Marat's
6502 emulation. I had to modify it, because the Hu6280 has a few additional
features.
The new version includes:
new video modes for MSDOS: 320x200, 256x256
and 256x240.
Sound in Unix, MacOS, RiscOS and Win32 versions.
fixed lots of bugs
made "run-mode" the default setting.
I don't have much time currently, and I don't want to delay the release
of VPCE v0.3 anymore.
I got some mail about adding sound to MSDOS. I need some time to look
at everything,
maybe I add sound into v0.4 of VPCE/MSDOS.
update: I'm working in a group to produce a Sharp X68000 emulator. I
already learned some
things I can use to improve VPCE. The bad thing is, that the development
of VPCE is frozen,
currently.
Future plans
I'm planning CD-ROM support for the next version. If you have any information
about the
CD-ROM interface or the arcade-card, please contact me. And I'd like
to have more CDs for
testing.
Getting VPCE
These versions are available of VPCE:

VPCE/Win32 v0.15
Edward doesn't
have time to continue with VPCE/Win32. I've got someone new
for the port,
but the version isn't ready, yet.

Attention: There
seems to be a problem with Win95 and VPCE/MSDOS ! Please
quit Win95 completely
if you want to try VPCE/MSDOS.
VPCE/RiscOS:
Paul Clifford
(paul@plasma.demon.co.uk)
VPCE/RiscOS v0.2b (link to the homepage)
This is currently
the last version of VPCE for RiscOS, because Paul has other and
more important
projects to work on. If you want to port VPCE to RiscOS, please
write,

and I'll add
a GGI version with v0.4.
