Filemanager: ClassAction V4.31
Martin R. Elsner released version 4.31 of his filemanager 'ClassAction'. The following changes were made:
  • Bugfixes: Icon-commands now using the correct filename, GETSIZE displays the correct size and SNAPSHOT also works now.
  • The zoom-button takes ClassAction into the fullsize-mode.
ClassAction recognizes about 40 fileformats (gif, jpeg, iff, mods, ...). This lets you perform actions like viewing, execute and edit by clicking on the file. Additional filetypes can easily be added.

The program needs AmigaOS 3.5 or higher and a 68020 CPU.

Emulator: WinUAE V08.17 Release 3
Since yesterday, at the download section of the WinUAE homepage version 08.17 release 3 of the Amiga emulator is available.

The following errors are known in this version:
  • Snapshot (save-state) support is not 100% yet.
  • Picasso96 colour-fades are especially slow.
  • Only Lemmings 3 AGA's playing screen is centered correctly, "Lemming-mode" selection buttons on bottom of screen are still corrupted. (AGA bitplanes do not steal copper's DMA cycles correctly yet)
  • Also Banshee AGA's scoreboard is still invisible because sprites outside playfields (AGA only feature, not yet implemented) are always hidden.
Gegenüber der vorigen Version hat sich Folgendes geändert:
  • FIXED: Mouse trails are gone gone gone.
  • FIXED: No longer crashes in windowed-mode on XP Themed-view.
  • FIXED: 68020+ bitfield instruction fix (stuck doors in Dungeon Master AGA)
  • FIXED: Fix garbage display on Venus the Flytrap and Nightbreed Interactive Movie. (Toni Wilen)
  • FIXED: Trying to delete a non-empty directory will now properly return ERROR_DIRECTORY_NOT_EMPTY. (Bernd Roesch)
  • FIXED: Renaming a directory which was opened then closed will no longer crash. (Bernd Roesch)
  • FIXED: Increased the range of addresses checked for memory-mapping, in order to make JIT "direct" mode work on more systems. (Bernd Roesch)
  • FIXED: Selecting a Picasso96 8-bit mode in windowed-mode would complain about not matching your desktop's depth, and switch to full-screen.
  • FIXED: CD-ROM Mounting should work again.
  • FIXED: Installer won't install when WinUAE is already running.
  • FIXED: Right-click and "Editting" a .UAE config-file will now result in the correct config-name and config-description in the GUI.
  • FIXED: MIDI-Out won't crash external MIDI drivers like "hubies loopback". (Bernd Roesch)
  • ADDED: Jose's modifications to the sound routines and GUI. (Jose Gil) NOTE: Read doc called "SoundSyncro Readme.rtf"
  • ADDED: AHI driver support. (Bernd Roesch)
  • ADDED: Option to disable use of overlays completely.
  • CHANGED: Floppy-disk emulation, including .FDI support. (Toni Wilen)
  • CHANGED: Picasso96 licensing/support notice (above).
  • CHANGED: Removed references to "Amiga" in the GUI.
