ACE v1.6 – emulator for MorphOS
26 April 2014, 7:00 pm

OffseT released a new version of his emulator for the MorphOS operating system. It emulates the CPC old generation and, since the latest version, the CPC Plus, too. The emulator was written from scratch, so it isn't just a port of an existing open source CPC emulator. If you are a MorphOS user and want to use your CPC software under MorphOS, don't hesitate and download it from the ACE homepage.

Changes:

• Changes in the layout of various windows including the main window.
• Improved tape to hard disc interface.
• Improved configurable breakpoints (complex conditions, scripts, names...).
• Fixed minor bugs.
• Added DK’Tronics memory expansion issues emulation.
• Improved CRTC 0 emulation.
• Added new AREXX commands.
• Added a separate window for emulater screen monitor emulation configuration.

Anyone running MorphOS in here?

[TotO]

Sadly, the PSU had killed my "like new" PowerBook just before trying it, 2 weeks ago. 

[Octoate]

Nope. From time to time I use HaikuOS in a virtual machine, but I have no PowerPC hardware .

[Gryzor]

Can you do PPC with a VM system under Windows?

[Octoate]

AFAIK Qemu should be able to emulate a PowerPC with OpenFirmware, but I never tried to run MorphOS in it.

[Gryzor]

Hmmm Qemu... not the simplest thing. I found this: PowerPC emulation: Qemu, PearPC, or... ? - Stack Overflow

   
• Install Cygwin with all important libraries
• Download qemu for Windows from - Qemu On Windows and unzip it
• Now download powerpc VM from Index of /~aurel32/qemu/powerpc and put it inside qemu folder
• Now open a cygwin terminal and go to the qemu folder inside the terminal, then type- ./qemu-system-ppc -L Bios powerpc_linux.qcow2 -net nic -net user -m 1024

Here only change the VM name powerpc_linux.qcow2 to the correct one.

Maybe with PearPC?

[Gryzor]

Had tried it a long time ago, got frustrated with it and just gave up. I see it hasn't been updated in three years, which is a shame... but maybe I'll give it another go.
