WinUAE v3.1.0 Beta 8 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 v3.1.0 Beta 8 Changelog:

- 53c710 software reset bit emulated. - Cirrus Logic register memory banks should not be marked thread safe. - Show '?' instead of 'E' in harddrives list if hdf can't be opened because of access fault, for example if it is already open and emulation is running and show '!' if open failed because of write protection. - Rewritten expansion board rom handling, expansion data is now fully parametrized, autoconfig emulation and config file handling does not need code changes anymore when new board with boot rom is implemented. - Secondary IDE/SCSI boards temporarily removed. - Automatically disable 24-bit CPU addressing if selected accelerator board is 32-bit. - Existing Blizzard 1230IV/1240/1260+SCSI configurations need adjustment. SCSI Kit configuration has changed. - Do not initialize tablet if tablet options are not enabled. - 5380/53c80 SCSI chip emulation implemented. Surprisingly basic chip, even Apollo SCSI hardware is more complex, driver needs even more bit-banging than Apollo.. - SupraDrive 500XP (5380) emulation implemented. - Added GVP G-Force 030 board. Same as GVP A530 but supports more RAM, located at 0x01000000. - A2620/A2630 accelerator board RAM now adjusts 0x01000000 memory size. - Fixed GPV Series I autoconfig product id. - STOP instruction was 2 cycles too fast in 68000 cycle-exact mode. NOTE: Accelerator board ROM appears also in SCSI/Boot ROM list. It will be removed later. SupraDrive 500XP: - v3.8 ROM (AMAB6) added. (Anyone have AMAB5 or older? I'd like to know why older versions have so many compatibility problems with modern drives. A2000 WordSync version also accepted.) - Uses MOVEP in main data transfer loop. (My crystall ball says WordSync version does not...) - Usual fake DMA, CPU used to transfer data, hardware automatically handles SCSI data handshake. - Any CPU access to "fake DMA" address space when SCSI chip is not in DMA mode: access never finishes. This is also emulated, causes halt 6 state.
