WinUAE v2.7.0 Beta 2 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 v2.7.0 Beta 2 changelog:
Cirrus Logic emulation updates:
- Fixed Piccolo SD64 Z2 wrong address space size.
- Piccolo is Z2/Z3 board.
- Fixed Z3 board subsize.
- Improved QEMU CL emulation glue code, VRAM banking/offsets supported.
- Some modes had invisible hardware sprite (mouse cursor).
- Implemented Piccolo/SD64/Spectrum vblank interrupts. Picasso96 won't hang anymore.
- Reset didn't reset all necessary graphics board variables.
- Force 32-bit host display mode if byteswapped board is selected (Any board except PicassoII/II+) Cirrus Logic emulation code supports byteswapping only in 32-bit mode.
- Note: Most VGA planar modes (16 colors or less) are not working. Includes also mouse cursor.
Other updates:
- Rewritten memory bank handling, moved all memory variables (start address, mask, size, etc) to addrbank stucture. Standard RAM bank code duplication replaced with macros.
- Debugger memwatch points now also detect hits in aliased addresses and only bank(s) that have watched addresses are redirected to debugger.
- CDTV SCSI option works again.
- Some uaenet.device improvements.
- It was not possible to write to Amithlon-style partitions.
- 5:4 aspect ratio had disappeared.
- CIA-A TOD counts (if vsync timed) on line 5 (PAL) or line 6 (NTSC), not line 0. (This is not 100% accurate yet, horizontal position is still wrong, will be improved in later betas)
- Installer update also coming, will be built with WiX (msi installer).
