XRoar for Dragon, CoCo (inc. 3), and MC-10 Emulation
Posted: Sun Nov 21, 2021 12:26 am
In recent months Ciaran has enhanced XRoar so that it now emulates the Tandy CoCo3 and MC-10 computers alongside the original Dragon and CoCo (1 and 2) emulations.
Version 1.0.1 for various host platforms can be downloaded from http://www.6809.org.uk/xroar/ and more recent 'snapshots' from http://www.6809.org.uk/tmp/xroar/ (xroar-snap-1.0.18 and later are more recent than version 1.0.1). The snapshots usually have binaries for Windows, for other platforms you will need to download xroar-snap-1.0.18.tar.gz (or later) and compile your own binary.
Note that you will also need the requisite computer ROMs for the emulations to work. Dragon ROMs can be found at https://archive.worldofdragon.org/brows ... 20Firmware and https://archive.worldofdragon.org/brows ... 20Firmware. DragonDOS 1.0 ROMs are available at https://archive.worldofdragon.org/brows ... agon%20DOS but Eurohard's DragonDOS 4.x at https://archive.worldofdragon.org/brows ... agon%20DOS, SuperDOS at https://archive.worldofdragon.org/brows ... erDos%20E6, and DOSplus at https://archive.worldofdragon.org/brows ... S3/DOSPlus are huge improvements, with DOSplus perhaps being the best. There are also more recent enhanced DOS ROMs available, they can be found within the Dragon Archive forum - a good place to start being the thread http://archive.worldofdragon.org/phpBB3 ... p?f=5&t=52.
