Amiga emulator for Mac OS: vAmiga 0.9.15
Dirk Hoffmann's "vAmiga" is a new Amiga emulator for MacOS computers emulating an A500, A1000 or A2000. Changes in version 0.9.15:
  • Added support for 3.5“ HD diskettes (Kickstart 2.0 required).
  • 'Export disk' opens a new dialog which lets the user view and check all disk sectors prior to exporting.
  • Added 'DIR' as new export format. All files on a disk will be saved in a regular folder on the Mac.
  • Some configuration panels have been cleaned up and restructured.
  • Blitter register values are no longer cached at the beginning of a Blitter operation (Hostages).
  • Hold-B is updated when BLTBDAT is written and keeps the original value if B channel DMA is off (Sanity Arte).
  • Invalid BP2 priorities don’t affect HAM mode any more (Rocklobster).
  • Fixed a bug in the ADF exporter that made it impossible to export newly formatted disks.
  • Fixed a bug in the devices pref panel (clicking a trashcan icon deleted the wrong entries).
  • The core emulator can be compiled with gcc (macOS uses clang by default).
  • Most of the larger data structures are now created on the heap instead of the stack.

Crowdfunding: New, Amiga compatible joypad 'Protopad'
Protovision - a group of develolpers and graphic artists for developeing games for the C64 - is going to pre-finance new joypads which will be developed explicitly for the C64. The pads have eight buttons, one button emulating 'up'. The pad is described as "also compatible with Atari and Amiga". But it is not clear how many of the seven buttons the Amiga can control.

The crowdfunding campaign was started on the Protovision website and does not run on one of the well-known donation portals. The money you give always is described as donations but it is promised to pay back the money if until January 2025 no joypad will have been delivered. You can donate via Paypal or bank transfer. If you donate 50 Euro or more you will get a 'Protopad' as soosn as the production was started. (cg) (Translation: dr)
