    Amiga emulator for MacOS: vAmiga 1.1 Beta 7 
Dirk Hoffmann has released a new beta version of his Amiga emulator for macOS which is currently under development. The changes of beta version 7 are as follows:
 
- Features:
 
- Added support for remote connections. Three remote servers have been implemented:
 
- A serial port server emulating a null modem cable on the serial port of the Amiga.
 
- A retro shell server that allows the user to connect to retro shell via telnet.
 
- An experimental GDB server implementing parts of the GDB serial remote protocol.
 
 
 
- Compatibility:
 
- Writes to DMA pointer registers are sometimes dropped on a real Amiga. The old code for checking if a write has to be dropped didn’t work correctly in all cases.
 
 
- Bug fixes:
 
- In the video configuration panel, the color palette couldn’t be changed any more. This has been fixed.
 
- OCS detection failed in some scenarios.
 
- On startup, some CPU registers were initialised with wrong values.
 
 
- Code quality:
 
- The code has been migrated to Cmake and is now compatible with all three major C++ compilers (clang, gcc, msvc).
