Italienische Version von Flight of Amazon Queen
Nach einer deutschen Umsetzung des Adventure-Klassikers gibt es nun auch eine italienische Übersetzung. Erneut wurden nicht einfach die Texte aus der DOS-Version ins Amiga-Spiel übernommen, sondern sämtliche Meldungen auch überarbeitet und korrigiert. Außerdem wurden auch Texte in Bildern ins Italienische übersetzt. (cg)

Amiga-Emulator: WinFellow 0.5.7
Die Version 0.5.7 des Windows-basierten Amiga-Emulators WinFellow bereinigt ausschließlich Fehler.
Changes:
- Floppy code was updated to use a track limit > 80; it will output random data beyond track 80 - fixes Outrun/The Games: Summer Edition; also added missing checks for disabled drives, fixing Winter Olympics 94
- Fixed a bug where unexpected pixel format flags besides RGB stopped DirectDraw initialization
- Several bugs in the screenshot code were fixed; standalone screenshots were not saved correctly in D3D mode, and used with Amiga Forever raw screenshots were missing screen areas due to faulty initialization of the internal clipping areas
- Fixed screen area mismatch when Amiga Forever region/size settings are both set to auto; auto clipping is still not supported
- CPU instruction fixes:
- Fixed a signed bug in 64-bit division
- Minor timing adjustment for btst
- CIA event counter changes according to documentation
- The project files were updated to Visual Studio 2017

Individual Computers: Buddha IDE ab Ende Januar wieder lieferbar
Pressemitteilung: In den letzten Monaten häuften sich die Anfragen von Kunden, die unbedingt einen Buddha IDE Controller von uns kaufen wollten. Diese hohe Nachfrage, sowie die Tatsache, dass auch fast 20 Jahre alte Controller immer wieder für mehr als den doppelten Neupreis auf Auktionsplattformen gehandelt werden, hat uns dazu bewegt, den Controller neu aufzulegen.
Die Neuauflage mit kleinen technischen Neuerungen und stark erweitertem Softwarepaket kann ab sofort vorbestellt werden. Wir liefern ab Ende Januar 2018.

Emulator: Ausblick auf WinUAE 3.6.0
Wie üblich gibt Toni Wilen wieder einen kurzen Ausblick auf die für die nächste Version geplanten Änderungen an dem bekannten Amiga-Emulator WinUAE. Version 3.6.0 soll noch im Januar erscheinen und die folgenden Verbesserungen aufweisen:
Neuerungen im Emulator-Kern:
- 68030, 68040 and 68060 full instruction and data cache emulation, with or without MMU emulation.
- 68030, 68040 and 68060 EC model partial MMU (transparent translation registers only) emulation.
- 68030, 68040 and 68060 MMU emulation performance improved (added extra translation caches).
- STOP-instruction CPU model specific undocumented behavior emulated when parameter does not have S-bit set.
- 68020+ DIVS/DIVU CPU model specific undefined overflow condition N and Z flags emulated.
- Undocumented 68881/68882 FMOVECR values emulated.
- Optional Toshiba Gary slow (chip ram like) Z2 IO and/or ROM space access speed.
Änderungen bei bereits emulierten Hardware-Erweiterungen:
- Added Cubo CD32 later revision hardware support, PIC copy protection, touch screen, NVRAM and RTC emulation. (TODO: Coin and ticket dispenser support, no hardware information available)
- Cubo CD32 is now expansion device, added DIPs, PIC game ID/language and expansion device enable options.
- A2090 Combitec and MacroSystem 3rd party ROM update/adapter supported.
- DKB 1230/1240/Cobra and Rapidfire flash rom writes emulated.
Erstmals emulierte Hardware-Erweiterungen:
- Ashcom Addhard (SCSI)
- Evesham Micros Reference (SCSI)
- FastATA 4000 MK I/II (IDE)
- Gigatron Arriba (IDE)
- Kupke Golem HD3000 (OMTI)
- Reiter Software Wedge (OMTI)
- Sprit Technology InMate (SCSI)
- Music Master dongle
Unterstützung für Direct3D 11 implementiert:
- Requires Windows 7SP1 and later. Windows 7 requires KB2670838 (Available via Windows update as an optional update), Windows 8 and later does not need any extra packages. Ancient DX9 redistributable is not needed.
- Requires hardware level 9.1 or higher, which means most Windows 7 capable GPUs are supported.
- All Direct3D9 mode features supported (overlays, masks, custom shaders)
- Variable sync (G-Sync, possibly also FreeSync) supported in windowed mode.
- Many D3D9 custom shaders are supported automatically, some require manual modifications to work in D3D 11 mode.
Sonstige Neuerungen und Änderungen:
- Simple box art/screenshot config file support.
- If Wait for Blitter is enabled and blit size makes no sense, don’t wait. Fixes long delay in Vital / Mystic.
- Added “CIA 391078-01” advanced chipset checkbox. This CIA revision has a bug in IO port output mode, reading output mode port will always read output mode data state. Other models, including original DIP 8520, 391078-02 and Akiko internal CIAs read IO pin external voltage level as documented. This can affect “bad” mouse left button/joystick fire button reading code (not working or stuck button). Used in A600. A1200/A4000 can have -01 or -02 revision.
- Added ATAPI Tape drive emulation.
- CD SCSI emulator READ CD-DA and READ CD-DA MSF commands emulated.
- Expansion device GUI changes are now activated after hard reset.
- uaehf.device hardfiles/harddrives unit number is now user configurable.
- “Include CD and FMV Audio” and/or sound mode change on the fly when CD or FMV audio is playing is now supported.
- Debugger assembler support (a) and some other misc debugger updates.
Beseitigte Fehler:
- It was not possible to override Z2 RAM board autoconfig data if board had built-in manufacturer/product ID defaults
- It was not possible to change existing path with Select Directory/Select Archive or Plain File buttons.
- Fixed 64-bit version random crashes that usually happened with some shell extensions.
- Z3 RAM in manual mode was completely broken.
- KS 1.2 autoboot hack didn’t work without extra reset if UAE autoconfig board wasn’t first board in autoconfig chain.
- 68030 data cache emulation corrupted data if write was cached, write size was word or long and address was odd.
- ECS Denise BPLCON2 ECS-only bits (for example KILLEHB) were masked unless AGA was also selected.
- Obsolete IDE FORMAT TRACK command fixed.
- GamePorts panel custom mapping incorrectly parsed joystick autofire state from config file.
- Directory filesystem ACTION_SET_DATE failed to change datestamp if file was read-only.
- 68020 memory cycle exact CPU speed slider is again partially working, CPU speed can be reduced but not increased.
- GamePorts panel custom mapping incorrectly parsed joystick autofire state from config file.
- uae-configuration joystick port (joyportx) modification only queued but didn’t apply changes.
- uaeserial.device crash fixed.
- Fixed uaegfx VRAM size check, some modes that almost filled whole VRAM didn’t appear in resolution list.
- uaenet.device didn’t close low level ethernet handles when Amiga was reset, causing duplicate packets.
- Bitplane overrun condition triggered incorrectly in rare situation where bitplane DMA is enabled after DDFSTOP on OCS
Neuerungen und beseitigte Fehler bei der AVI-Aufzeichnung:
- First avioutput recorded frame was sometimes partially corrupted.
- When saving state with avioutput active: last frame before state save was not recorded.
- Number of avioutput frames buffered (waiting for compression thread processing) counter was reset periodically which caused lost frames (and leaked memory) in recorded video if CPU was not fast enough.
- Delay initialization until first display frame or sound buffer recording request comes, previously “before filtering” option may have used wrong display size in some situations.
- Uncompressed video selection is not forgotten anymore.
- First frame was not rendered (and also not recorded) if statefile was restored when emulation was already running.
- If emulator state was changed (debugger breakpoint, statefile save etc..), last frame before state change was not recorded.
- File splitting (2G limit) flushed sound buffers causing random sound glitches.
- Added -max_avi_size <bytes> -command line parameter to set split size.
- If recording was started and GUI was never opened in same session, sound recording rate become 44100Hz, causing syncronization issues if real rate was not same.

Entwicklerwerkzeuge: vasm 1.8b und vlink 0.16b
Frank Wille hat Updates für den modularen Assembler vasm und den dazugehörigen Linker vlink veröffentlicht.
Changes:
vasm 1.8b:
- Option -noialign disables the automatic instruction alignment.
- m68k: New Apollo Core instructions (core >=4035.jic), provided by Henryk Richter.
- m68k: Referencing absolute-short labels and optimizing labels into absolute short addressing mode is allowed, when the label resides in an absolute ORG section.
- jagrisc: Fixed MOVE PC,Rn instruction.
- oldstyle-syntax: Internal symbol __RPTCNT can be used as iteration counter in the inner repeat loop.
- oldstyle-syntax: Numeric absolute symbol expansion is supported for macro parameters of the form \<symbol>.
- vobj-output: Ignoring internal/local symbols does not work. Now we create and use section symbols as a relocation reference.
vlink 0.16b:
- New option -mtype: merge all sections of the same type (code, data, bss), ignoring name and attributes.
