WinUAE (Public Beta) v1.6.0 Beta 27 is released.Winuae is the commodore amiga emulator for Windows. WinUAE is a mostly complete software emulation of the hardware of the Commodore Amiga 500/1000/2000. A Commodore Amiga, for those who don’t know, is a 16/32 bit computer system based on the Motorola 680×0 CPU and a few specially designed custom chips that provide very good graphics and sound capabilities. Its first incarnation, the A1000, appeared in 1985, followed by the highly successful A500 and A2000 models. WinUAE is a port of the originally written for Unixish systems UAE; but over time, it seems the Windows port, WinUAE has become the best version available on any platform. WinUAE is free software: you are welcome to distribute copies of it and/or modify it, under certain conditions. There is no warranty of any kind for UAE. For more details concerning these issues, please read the GNU General Public License, which describes the terms under which WinUAE is distributed.
WinUAE (Public Beta) v1.6.0 Beta 27 changelog:
- on screen led was always enabled (b26)
- scaling in NTSC mode really fixed (b26)
- enabling autoscaling and no filters enabled: select Direct3D if at least 2.0 shaders supported (=fast enough), only select Null filter if older. (D3D9 scaling is "free" on modern hardware)
- Logitech LCD SDK updated (currently waiting for G19..)
- autoscale found sprites outside of bitplanes when BRDSPRT was enabled without ECSENA
- vertical positioning in autoscale was wrong in some cases
- AHI works again
- always enable Picasso96 BIF_INDISPLAYCHAIN (not enabled means RTG mode display size of 0x0 pixels = crash)
- delayed printer open, do not open until enough data received, also ignore data completely if less than 10 bytes received
- added "ASCII Printer" option. Select this option if you use programs that print directly to emulated parallel port (bypassing Amiga printer drivers) and they expect old-style printers that directly accept ascii text (Action Replay, demo scene disk magazines etc..) In future this will also include emulation of old Epson matrix printer control codes (de-facto control codes that most printers supported at that time)
- added missing "Automatic" aspect ratio setting in Filter panel
- selecting "Full Window" mode when no filters enabled = also enable Direct3D + FS. (this is what users apparently expect, not confusing tiny image on the middle of screen)
- development PC updated to Windows 7 RC
