WinUAE v2.5.0 Beta 21 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 v2.5.0 Beta 21 changelog:

- Use software volume also in WASAPI non-exclusive because WASAPI main volume control also affects waveOut used by CD audio. (XP + DS also seems to affect waveout.. CDA really should use some more modern sound API, later...) - Floppy sound sample mixing volume fix, volume level got lower if more than one drive had enabled sounds. - Virtual mouse driver option IECLASS_POINTERPOS inputevent ie_Qualifier apparently needs to include mouse button state bits or Magellan II's (AmiKit) menus won't stay open, possibly affects other programs too. (This is not documented in HRMs, hmm...). "Start menu" still won't work but it is application bug because it also won't work if mouse is moved using Amiga + cursor keys. - CDFS crash fix when unsupported media (not unreadable but for example UDF-only DVD) was accessed. - Check and ignore possible duplicated CDFS CD insert or eject Windows message. - Compile time directory filesystem logging is now runtime option (-filesyslog and -filesyslog2) - Borderblank still didn't work correctly in all situations. (Aladdin AGA) - Fullscreen DirectDraw mode IDirectDrawSurface7_Flip "Was still drawing" fix. (I still have no idea what was I thinking of..) - Added "waiting blits" special case, when blitter is started and blit would use all available cycles: start waiting for the blit immediately. - Changing hardfile path does not anymore clear device name and filesystem text boxes. - Fixed crash when loading statefile with JIT enabled (b6 "ROM protection" should be disabled temporarily when loading UAE boot rom data..) - zlib updated to 1.2.7 - Built-in AROS ROM updated.
