fine BasiliskII for Windows of 06-05-2013

Post by 09mai2013 »

Clockwise announced the new version of 06-05-2013. I found, game sound is much smoother in this version, compared to the version of 05-03-2013. The game is Heart of China. I'm curious on the modifications done.

It was generally a pleasure to see how fine the current versions run, be it on Windows 8, be it on Mac OS X 10.8.3 (Mountain Lion). Before I had 142 and 19b, respectively. On Mac OS X we even run the unmodified disks contents as-is, containing System 7.6.1 of a 68040 Macintosh.

Better sound: the latest build (mid-2013) appears to use the SDL sound code again, which provides more accurate sound playback, like builds 142/143, versus the 2008/2010 versions and SheepShaver, which appear to use native sound channels (high latency, inability to stop/repeat mid-playback, broken rate multiplier, extra “smoothing” of lower sample rates).
