MiST: Update of FPGA-AGA-Core 1.1
For the Atari-/Amiga-clone MiST (amiga-news.de reported), an update to version 1.1 of the emulated Amigas with AGA-support has been released. Besides, the compatibility was increased by some bug fixes.

The MiST developer Till Harbaum wrote: "The last few weeks i fixed the 68020 bitfield instructions in the tg68k cpu core we use. This means that one pretty important part of the 68020 has been fixed. The extent of improvement is not clear to me. But it seems this has fixed quite a lot of software. Have fun! And thanks to MikeJ from FPGA arcade for bugging me to fix these."

AROS: Another update to Odyssey 1.25 beta
Three days ago, Krzysztof 'Deadwood' Śmiechowicz has released an update of the beta version of Odyssey 1.25 which starts fixing the problems of the excessive memory consumption.

Changes:
  • Fixed messages console to display messages
  • Made aligned allocation not take additional memory
  • Made memory allocator work better with fragmented memory
  • Fixed major memory leak where Frames were not released together with their JS data - memory no longer continously consumed while browsing
  • Fixed a number of small memory leaks
  • Implemented a more agreesive memory freeing strategy which keeps allocated memory as low as possible

Toni Wilen is working on WinUAE adaptions for AmigaOS 4
The WinUAE programmer Toni Wilen currently is working on an improved integration of AmigaOS 4 in WinUAE. The goal is to adapt as many parts as possible of the native infrastructure (uaehf.device, UAEGFX) provided by the emulator to the PPC operating system - and to give up slower emulation of real hardware e.g. the SCSI-controller of the Cyberstorm, the Picasso 4 graphic board or network and sound cards which were needed up to now.

A first and early trial version Wilen now has made available. It is possible to include directories as harddrives and HDF-images are supported. Some more details:

Currently supported UAE devices:
  • Directory harddrives
  • uaehf.device (hardfiles). HD_SCSICMD is NOT supported yet
Supported but not tested:
  • uae.resource
  • Some "uaelib" functions
Not yet supported (lots more work needed):
  • uaegfx
  • bsdsocket.library
  • uaenative.library
  • clipboard sharing
  • uaescsi.device
  • uaenet.device
  • virtual mouse driver
  • on the fly directory harddrive changes
  • And everything else that was not mentioned
In order to enable the trap system, in the configuration file the line "uaeboard=full+indirect" has to be added. The new features has not been completely optimised and therefore are not faster than the previous SCSI-emulation. Additionally a computer with at least three processor cores is recommended.

Toni Wilen emphasised that he himself is not intersted in an improved PPC-emulation and that therefore donations for this project would be the greatest motivation. If you are interested in further adaptions of WinUAE to AmigaOS 4, then a donation via Paypal is very welcome.

Hint of the editorial staff: So far Wilen has not said anything about the limitation of the RAM - AmigaOS 4 currently recognizes maximal 128 MB RAM under UAE. In theory this limitation could be raised to 256 MB, if a CyberstormPPC would not have been emulated (due to the SCSI-controller) and the emulator could present itself as BlizzardPPC .
