UAE is a mostly complete software emulation of the hardware of the Commodore Amiga 500/1000/2000. It features a well done GUI as well as some extras like midi and AGA emulation.
Requirements:
· OS: Windows 2000/XP/2003/Vista
· PC mainboard must have hardware support for 2 floppy drives
· 2 non-USB floppy drives installed on the same cable
· Regular format Amiga disks without any copy-protection
· A normal PC-formatted 1.44M floppy
What's New in This Release: [ read full changelog ]
· Huge memory leak when switching between RTG and native modes.
· Writing to disk images didn't work in some games.
· Configuration cache missing files in subdirectories.
· Random freeze when switching to fullscreen modes that are smaller than desktop resolution.
· Second and third mouse/firebutton handling fix (Aladdin, BC.Kid and more)
Other bugs fixed:
· "Always on top", "No taskbar button" and fullscreen color depth change works on the fly.
· OpenGL fullscreen fixed.
· Parallel/Serial/MIDI select menus and Input-panel bottom options didn't work correctly.
· System clock run slightly too fast or slow if chipset refresh rate was different than startup refresh rate (really old bug).
· OCS NTSC configuration defaulted to PAL refresh rate.
· Real PCMCIA SRAM card re-insert detection fixed.
· Fullscreen RTG 16-bit to 32-bit desktop windowed mode switch (CTRL+F12) color errors fixed.
New features:
· Basic file association settings added to GUI (.uae, .adf etc..)
· RTG vertical blank wait uses interrupts, no more busy waiting. Should improve performance in many fullscreen RTG games.
· Added RTG virtual refresh rate configuration to GUI.
· Added RTG refresh rate next to chipset refresh rate FPS counter.
· Undocumented OCS "scanline" feature emulated (Ode to Ramon I and II)
· Midline resolution change improvements (still far from perfect, Disposable Hero, Innovation Part 2)
· Only accept current latest OpenAL32.dll or newer (old versions can cause crashes during device enumeration)
· Improved emulation of reads from write-only custom registers (S.E.X. / Fantasys)
· Syncronize Clock stability improved.
