Emulator: WinUAE 0.8.22 Release 1 (08.09.2002)
Since yesterday, the Amiga emulator WinUAE 0.8.22 Release 1 by Toni Wilen for Win95, Win98, WinME, Win2K and WinXP has been available in the download area of the WinUAE home page. (Unfortunately, winuae.net currently seems to be down, please write any known mirror addresses into the comments!).

The following changes have been implemented:

  • UAE 0.8.22 merge, bumped version number (but most changes were already included in R4)
  • 68000 CHK-instruction fix (Days of Thunder) and exception 3 handling update
  • real 68000 prefetch emulation ("100 most remembered C64 games" and more)
  • some custom chipset fixes (sprite-playfield collisions, graphics corruption)
  • keyboard fix (some key presses were missed when pressing multiple keys)
  • A1000 emulation fixes
  • AVIOutput update (Sane)
  • input-tab updates
  • vsync works properly in interlaced screen modes
  • sound updates/changes (DirectSound, uses UAE timing in non-JIT/vsync modes and more...)
  • filesystem bug fixes
  • CD32 pad numeric keypad emulation works again
  • fixed joystick bugs in compatibility mode
  • fast RAM state save fix
  • bsdsocket fix (Stephan Riedelbeck)
  • disk emulation fixes
New features:
  • full harddisk image support (hdtoolbox, RDB, custom filesystems, SFS and PFS3 confirmed working)
  • uaescsi.device improvements, confirmed compatible with CacheCDFS, AmiCDFS and AsimCDFS (disk change support added and use of direct scsi-mode is not needed anymore)
  • Action Replay 1 support (but breakpoints don't work)
  • CPU idle (tries to detect use of STOP-instruction, may not be complatible with all Amiga software..)
  • floppy speed slider is back
  • new AHI code and driver (Bernd Roesch)
  • Amiga <> Windows clipboard support (Bernd Roesch)
  • on the fly switching between OpenGL and DirectDraw mode
  • on the fly switching between vsync and non-vsync mode
  • compressed Kickstart ROM image support
  • build-in screenshot function, shortcut key: F11 (Sane)
  • experimental (and much slower) cycle-exact cpu and blitter emulation mode.
    WARNING: requires at least 50%+ more cpu power than "regular" mode.
    Athlon XP/Pentium IV + DDR/RAMBUS RAM highly recommended!
    WARNING2: Frameskip must be set to 1.
    WARNING3: very experimental, timing is quite far from perfection.
  • wkeykill.dll support (disables Windows-keys)
  • OpenGL scanline brightness slider added
  • and more..
