WinUAE v6.0.0 Beta 20 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 donโt know, is a 16/32 bit computer system based on the Motorola 680ร0 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:
– Long/short field mode change (single LOF change, not interlace continuous toggle) didn’t recalculate internal screen mode configuration. As a side-effect it also caused random last line to not being updated correctly when switching from long to short.
– Fixed fast mode drawing and TV overscan mode top/bottom lines not being always updated correctly.
– Audio hack that prevents high CPU usage if program sets (uselessly) AUDxPER to very low value is now more aggressive but not aggressive enough to break Spaceport. (R-Type II, ReadySoft 64 emulator)
– Serial port transmit works again in non-ce modes.
– Integer scale horizontal/vertical resolution aspect ratio correction should now work more sanely (for example if superhires + vertical doubling, result is always vertically doubled first, after that integer scaling ratio is selected). Supports also programmed doublescan modes.
– In AGA mode reads from write-only registers are now closer to 5.3.1 and older version behavior. (Artificial Paradise / NGC)
– If resolution/plane count was set before FMODE was updated and original FMODE was too small for new mode, drawing mode was reset to normal (HAM and EHB was drawn as normal mode). Affected hires and shres AGA HAM and EHB modes.
– Non-accurate CPU mode and writing to CIA high timer register didn’t load timer from latch immediately in oneshort mode when timer was already running. (Introduced in some 4.9.x version)
