Introduction
Welcome
to SubQMod's Console and Emulator Development Site, currently a home
for the
advancement of the development tools for the Atari Jaguar Console and
the creation and progression of console emulators. In recent
years I have worked
on and released new tools such as SMAC (a Macro Assembler for the
Jaguar's 68k and RISC Processors) and SLN (a linker for the Atari
Jaguar). These tools will continue to be developed, along with
new ones, to ensure a current and stable development toolset is
maintained. Historically, I wrote the Jagulator emulator
and other system emulators and tools so although getting on in years I
am still a big kid at heart and love a good gaming session.
Site Updated and New Release of SLN (30th June 2010)
Its been far too long since I last updated the site (blimey,
over a year!!!) so have started today by updating two key
elements. Firstly, the focus of the site is now to be split
between Atari Jaguar development and the development on console
emulators (more to come in future posts). Additionally, I have
had several requests for further development of SMAC and SLN which I am
undertaking again after a break. To kick things off I have
updated SLN in the downloads section from the previously available
0.1.6 to the newer release 1.0.0. This has been available for
some time but not publically distributed. Would be great to hear
any feedback from the Jaggy Dev's out there.
SMAC v1.0.16 Released (24th June 2009)
Thanks to Promethea of the Reboot
group
a good few issues have been resolved in this latest release of
SMAC. Stability is very much improved and it is now proving a
good replacement for Atari's MAC. Additional good news in this
release: The SMAC manual, which can be found in the binary zip file,
has been updated with information on how to use the new GPU main code
macros and with this release the source code is also once again
available. Please feedback any issues you find...
Development Update (23rd June 2009)
Its been a busy week for me but unfortunately not with
development. I finally ditched my old Pentium 4 development
system and invested in a new dual core Intel system. Its taken
the best part of the week to get it just how I want it and now I can
get back to developing once more. I have received some great
SMAC/SLN bug information from Promethea (dbug-automation) and
JagMod. I'll be working on these over the next few days and will
get a release out soon. Source code for SMAC will once again be released.
