[[File:ACE.png|thumb|German GUI - Main window]]'''ACE''' is a high quality [[Amstrad]] CPC/CPC+ emulator written by Philippe "[[OffseT|OffseT]]" Rimauro.  It is developed exclusively for [http://www.morphos.de/ MorphOS].<br />but [[PulkoMandy]] is maintaining the port for [https://www.haiku-os.org/ Haiku].
* Accurate but incomplete FDC emulation (Format and Scan instructions are missing).
* Accurate emulation of both floppy disc drives (real rotation speed computation, manual drive & side switches support).
* CPC+ Cartridge port emulation(including upcoming extended cartridges).
* Emulation of the tape interface through audio files (read only).
* Accurate emulation of the keyboard (including ghost keys when pressing more than three keys at once).
ACE is designed to be expandable and controllable. You are not limited to the core emulation and can you easily integrate it in any cross-development tool chain.
* Handling of expansion === Plugins === ACE support plugins that allow anybody with some C language knowledges to add support for expansions connected to joystick, printer or expansion CPC port (except for memory management).** Both [[joystick]]s (up to three fire buttons) using real devices plugged on the host machine (using USB or whatever).** [[Digiblaster|Digiblaster/Soundplayer]].** [[Printer]] (redirected to a file).** [[Kempston Mouse]].** [[AMX Mouse]].** [[Gunstick]].** [[Amstrad Magnum Phaser]].** [[Trojan Light Phazer]].** [[West Phaser]].** [[Albireo]].** [[Nova]].** [[X-Mass]].** [[Amdrum]].** CycleCounter (developer helper). === Scripting ===
* Support Any scripting language (such as Python, Lua or of an course AREXX interface which allows ) can be used to fully control ACE through its AREXX interface. It gives you full control on the emulator and to manipulate its memory, in order to automate things (and much more), or even to use ACE as a powerful cross-development station(including integration into an IDE).
