WinUAE v2.5.0 Beta 18

EmuCR:WinUAEWinUAE v2.5.0 Beta 18 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 18 changelog:
- FPS and CPU% react quicker now. Can Show previously hidden CPU usage spikes. NOTE: CPU% now showing "myserious" usage spikes does not mean emulation has become slower!
- Automatically limit tablet mode X and Y coordinate range to prevent 16-bit signed overflows if tablet has large resolution. (not confirmed)
- Always generate full size mask texture, workaround for mask pixel mapping errors in some scaling modes.
- Only release pressed keys if window or screen gets reopened (prevents stuck keys), not when any graphics related config option changes.
- Do not allow GUI resize if GUI is larger than fullscreen resolution because Windows may automatically resize it to fit on screen, making GUI completely unusable.
- Always recalculate Display panel horiz/vert centering option internal values when configuration changes.
- 68030+ CPU and more compatible checkbox checked: enable very basic prefetch emulation, only 68000-68020 have more complex prefetch emulation.
- JIT + more compatible also enables basic prefetch. Only works if code is not yet translated. (Not much point but it was easy to do)
- Added route all MIDI In data to MIDI Out configuration option.
- Improved 68030 MMU instruction decoding. WHDLoad + MMU option enabled + 68030 CPU does not crash anymore. (No, there still is no 68030 MMU emulation, it is only emulating 68EC030 without MMU circuitry which probably does not exist in real world + hack for A3000 1.4 ROM)
- Few (rare) variants of MOVES didn't increase PC correctly.
- BSR.L was emulated as 68020+ instruction on 68000/010. (BCC.L was correct)
- For some reason 68000 BSR.B and BSR.W address exception stack frame PC field points to new odd PC, instead of address of BSR opcode.
