Steem is an emulator for the Atari STE computer created many years ago by
Anthony and Russell Hayward. Steem SSE is a new version of Steem based on
this release. 'SSE' stands for 'Steven Seagal Edition'. Steven Seagal is a
well known Aikido grandmaster, action movie star, musician and playboy.
Steem SSE v3.9.3 Changelog:
v3.9.3 Features
- Record to YM file.
- 'Advanced Settings' option (D3D). When unchecked, other options are
simplified.
- New Option General/Mute sound when inactive.
- Notice: 'Macros' option page renamed 'Record Input'.
- When running a new version for the first time (based on existing ini if
any), you get dialogs prompting you for a shortcut, home directories, etc.
This is to give you a chance to update the link in the Start Menu, but it's
optional and you may skip the rest too.
v3.9.3 Emulation improvements
- Anti-aliasing filter for YM2149 emu (option 'C2'). This improves the sound
with all sample rates, at the cost of some CPU use (Star Trek). Thx Mike
Perkins for the C++ class.
- Hardware Hacks:
*Support for Freeboot (disk side selector).
*Support for STF hardware overscan (LaceScan and Autoswitch).
*Support for STE YM/DMA sound mix fix, useful for Petari's little games ;)
- STE paddles (thx Petari).
v3.9.3 Bugfixes / Refactoring
- Blitter start test (Great Giana Sisters STE).
- 6301/ACIA emulation (Warp STX).
- Removing some hacks in GLU/Shifter emulation.
- Floppy drive emulation at fast speed (no snails) is more compatible (Exile,
Super Hang-On, Lost Patrol, ...).
- Multiple screens can have negative coordinates (D3D).
- Fire button of STE joysticks.
- Missing macro in OR.W Dn, (D-Bug 117).
- WD1772: Wrong status after command $D0 (Rogue SCP). Trouble at Index Pulse
(some dumps of Gunship SCP).
- Lost on ST disks with <9 sectors (Wipe-Out-RPL, broken v3.9.0) - Black
borders in monochrome mode (bug since the origins!) With borders, the screen
isn't centred anymore, sorry about that, but centring caused timing problems.
It is correct emulation. - Removed "multimedia" joystick support as it can
cause crashes on some systems, only DirectInput is used now. - Record Input
and Paste Text with option 'C1'. - Messed display when coming back from
optional 16bit Fullscreen. - Slow Motion (broken v3.8.2). - Possible crash
when loading a profile.
