WinUAE 4.3.0 Beta 8

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 8: (eta for official release: next week)

 

  • Partition HDF default geometry calculation changed if partition size is 1000M or larger, keeps total cylinders under 32768 = better compatibility with pre-OS3.9(BB2?) versions. Only changed when HDF is added using GUI. Config file loaded geometry won't change.
  • RDB mode didn't disable if RDB HDF was selected and then switched to partition HDF using GUI.
  • CD32 didn't boot from CD after reset (b1)
  • DMA debugger update in b7 had incorrect commmand parsing.
  • Microbotics HardFrame v1.9 ROM CRCs added.
  • D3D11 HDR mode is not anymore enabled automatically (if compatible hardware is detected), it is now only enabled if gfx_hdr=true is in config file. This is experimental feature and should not be the default in official versions.
  • RTG mode D3D9/11 overlay graphics support. (Scaling/positioning needs to be better but it needs more updates, after 4.3.0 is out)
