WinUAE 4.3.0 Beta 2

Description

WinUAE is a 32-bit Windows version (XP/Vista/7) of the UAE Amiga Emulator. UAE is the collaborative effort of a number of Amiga enthusiasts to create a portable Amiga emulator under the GNU Public License. The source-code for all UAE versions is available, and donated code is always appreciated.

 

WinUAE allows you to run Amiga software under Windows, including many games, demos, and applications. General compatibility is excellent, and there are a number of enhancements in WinUAE compared to a standard Amiga computer.

 

Features:

 

WinUAE is a very feature-rich implementation of an Amiga:

  • Picasso96 RTG support, so that your Amiga can make use of all available display modes of your PC graphics-card. P96-RTG is implemented as a Zorro-III graphics-card to the Amiga.
  • CD-ROM, CDTV and CD32 drive support, for accessing Amiga CD-ROM discs.
  • Windows file-system support, so that your Amiga can use your PC hard-drive's file-system directly. Makes it easy to share files between Windows and the Amiga.
  • Full Harddisk support, for maximum compatibility, and reduced risk. HDToolbox, RDB and custom filesystems supported. Able to mount real hard disks with RDB and Amithlon partitions. Kickstart 1.3 hardfiles now supported with FastFileSystem in KS roms directory.
  • Zorro-III memory-expansion support, so that you can emulate an Amiga with up to 2GB of RAM.
  • Super-Alice custom-chip, with up to 8-Megs of Chip Memory.
  • Virtual networking support, through either your Ethernet or Dial-Up Networking connection to the world.
  • MIDI output support.
  • JIT CPU emulation.
  • Action Replay 1/2/3 support.
  • Compressed Kickstart ROM support.
  • All keys now usable as Amiga keys including Windows keys and are usable in Input-tab configuration.
  • Floppy disk speed slider and configurable floppy drive types.
  • Quickstart mode allows you to select pre-configured Amiga models
  • And many, many more!

Changelog

4.3.0 beta series.

 

Beta 2:

 

  • 68060 PCR FPU disabled bit was not set when 68060 model didn't have FPU (b1).
  • PCMCIA slot (if card configured) was not enabled at reset. Small change to attribute from image file: extra attribute data must be at least 512 bytes (b1).
  • CALLM disassembler support
  • FSAVE/FRESTORE and PSAVE/PRESTORE (if 020/030) generate privilege violation exception (if run in user mode) even if FPU/MMU is not installed.
  • When editing Display panel width/height boxes, don't validate the value immediately to prevent useless "must be at least" messages in the log window/error log.
  • List font selection removed, may come back if fix for some side-effects is found.
  • GUI scaling partially rewritten yet again. Now uses ReactOS/Wine CreateDialogIndirectParam() reimplementation with some customization which enables resize code to find out exactly which elements are part of GUI, final screen coordinates, types etc. Remaining high DPI related glitches should be fixed.
  • GUI panel change redraw flicker is gone.
  • Fixed double free and buffer overflow in GUI code (b1)
  • Copper COPJMP cycle sequence order was wrong, first cycle does not need free cycle, second cycle requires free cycle, logic analyzer rechecked. (vAmiga test case)
  • Using SPRxPOs to move DMA mode sprite horizontally towards right very little so that "both" sprites still have overlapping pixels: old sprite was still drawn fully. (vAmiga test case)
