WinUAE v6.0.1 Beta 1 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 Changelog:
- Fixed TCP serial mode hang.
- Entering and exiting GUI when in fullscreen mode crash fix.
- Virtual mouse driver mode was not in sync with host cursor, both RTG and native modes.
- Filter overlay graphics display positioning/size calculation was broken.
- ECS superhires works again (got broken in last minute update before final).
- CLXDAT bit 0 (odd to even bitplane collision bit) didn't get set in special case where no planes are selected for collision detection (=always collides). (Cruncher Factory/Kingsoft). This is now also more accurate than in pre-v6 versions, CLXDAT bit 0 is only set when bitplanes are active (not in border or in blanking regions), even in "always collides" state (no bitplanes are enabled for collision).
- CLXCON and CLXCON2 was always saved as zero (or if statefile was loaded first, value from statefile) to statefile.
- Fixed edge case in COPJMP sequence where copper forgot it was going to load the pointer register and continued executing from current address.
- Vertical and horizontal centering works again (was not converted to new chipset emulation and did nothing). Some limits change: now works with non-"auto" scaling filters, disabled if genlock image/video emulation is active (this never worked properly in old versions and too messy to work around), horizontal is now restricted to max 1/4 of width to prevent weird cases to cause weird side-effects. Like previously, only supported in display panel Overscan and smaller settings.
- Fast drawing mode + 32-bit Chip RAM address mask fix. (Garbage in fast drawing mode lines)
- When switching from emulated graphics board to native programmed mode screen, sometimes screen (fast drawing mode part) had offset.
- In some situations emulated graphics board was not drawn fully, bottom part was blank.
- Add Harddrive: Storage devices containing MBR partition table with RDB in later blocks was not detected correctly.
- OpalVision possible buffer underrun crash fix.
Other bug fixes/updates:
- RoboCop 3 dongle emulation fixed.
- Added Native/RTG autoswitcher option. Previously all RTG boards without built-in switcher always autoswitched, now it is optional, default enabled.
- If UAE Boot ROM is partially disabled (Mapped but diag bit not set in autoconfig data), writing to m68/host trap related areas caused a crash.
- ROM scanner now detects CyberStorm MK3/PPC and BlizzardPPC flash rom images using checksums. Address ranges that make ROM image unique (Serial number/board config and menu config areas) are ignored in checksum calculation.
- ROM scanner *.a600 ROM extension added. Super IV cartridge is not anymore shown as detected without ROM image (Super IV is a special case, "ROM" is loaded from disk and "placeholder" ROM was always detected as found)
- Copilot key now works as a right Windows (Right Amiga) key. Note that this is a hack and causes some (harmless) extra shift and left Windows key presses and releases due to Copilot key being really weird. (LSHIFT + LWIN + F23!)
- Automatic display switcher now also uses DPMS power saving state to detect if board is active or inactive. (S3 Trio, S3 Virge, Voodoo, Cirrus Logic and Matrox currently only)
- PC keyboard without numpad/end key optional translation mode. When enabled, PageUp becomes End (End still works normally). Because cartridge freeze is also PageUp, freeze becomes PageUp + PageDown. END/PageUp + cursor left is Pause and cursor right is Warp mode. (Replacing print screen key). PageUp + 7890/UIOP/JKL
- Built-in AROS ROM finally updated.
- Debugger disassembler (d16,An) addressing mode was (An,d16). If (d16,PC) addressing mode's d16 was negative (for example -1), it was output as $FFFF not -$0001.
- Debugger disassembler DIVSL.L second output register was not listed (shared code with MULxL which didn't have this special case)
- Debugger memwatch point change mode detected negative byte/word value writes as always changed due to sign extension before comparison.
