U64/Ultimate-64(Elite) v1.28 – U2/U2+ v3.7 Firmware Update

A new version of the firmware for the Ultimate-64 / U2/U2+ by Gideon is released.

Difference with previous release V1.26 / V3.6a:

  • Debug stream over Ethernet, which logs CPU / VIC access real time, also possible to log C64 CPU and 1541 CPU alongside. U64 only.
  • ACIA (MOS 6551) emulation.
  • Modem Layer emulation (6551 <-> LAN), supporting both outbound and inbound connections.
  • REU load / save commands from UCI, using the preload settings.
  • File append mode for Software IEC.
  • Support for SuperGames cartridge.

Bug fixes:

  • Issue #121: 1541C ROM seemed faulty. Track 0 sensor reconnected.
  • Issue #119: Fixed network host name illegal chars.
  • Issue #127: Fix for Epyx Fastload at boot U64 (consider DMA to stop discharging the cap.)
  • Fix for KCS cart at boot of U64.
  • Fixed DMA load delay, to let 1541 initialize before running PRG.
  • Fixed 1541 address decoding (RAMBOard was faulty!)
  • Fixed Closing telnet connection caused U64/U2+ to freeze.
  • Stability issues fixed in configuration manager.
  • Corrected NMI / IRQ routing for internal cart. (U64)
  • Timing corrections to make external 1764 REU work. (U64)
  • Some U64 factory test improvements. Invisible to you.

Planned work for the upcoming release:

  • CPU Speedup.
  • Keystrokes to quickly enable / mute audio channels.
  • A sample project for the ESP32, which can be used for others to port stuff like modem emulation.
