Therefore Frodo has relatively + high system requirements: It should only be run on systems with at + least a PowerPC/Pentium/68060. But on the other hand, Frodo can + display raster effects correctly that only result in a flickering mess + with other emulators. + + Frodo comes in three flavours: The "normal" Frodo with a line-based + emulation, the improved line-based emulation "Frodo PC", and the + single-cycle emulation Frodo SC that is slower but far more + compatible. + + In addition to a precise 6510/VIC emulation, Frodo features a + processor-level 1541 emulation that is even able to handle about 95% + of all fast loaders. There is also a faster 1541 emulation for four + drives in .d64/x64 disk images, .t64/LYNX archives, or directories of + the host system. |
