WinUAE 1.0 public beta #3, Remarks on Postscript Printing
With version 0.9.92 the WinUAE Team is possibly releasing the last beta-version before the final release 1.0. Whoever is able to locate bugs is asked to advise the authors.
There is now better online help that explains about printing and the "autoflush" function more clearly.
Changes in WinUAE 0.9.92:
Bug fixes:
- Regular HDF TD_GEOMETRY returned incorrect data (caused some
larger HDF's fail to mount, 0.9.91 only)
- Filesystem bug fix (0.9.90-91), files with Windows
System or Hidden -flag set didn't open properly in all cases
- Stardust starwars-scroller in cycle-exact mode
- SuperStardust AGA tunnel-section and Superfrog intro bee flashing
plus other sprite emulation fixes
- Random disk formatting verify errors when using non-turbo mode
(was broken couple of releases ago)
- Display corruption/crashes if display width was larger than 1024
and display depth was 32bit (only native display mode, Picasso96
was unaffected)
- Windowed mode window close button didn't work if "Use CTRL+F11
to quit" was enabled
- Input-panel autofire yes/no-selection
- AVIOutput video recording bug in interlaced modes
New features:
- Filesystem emulation now uses NTFS named streams to store Amiga
FS protection flags and comment instead of __UAEFSDB.__-files
(non-NTFS drives still use old method)
- Postscript printer emulation using Ghostscript. All Windows
supported printers work now. Amiga-side only needs standard Amiga
Postscript printer driver
- Automatic print job flush after user configurable timeout
- Improved hardfile creation, filesystem selection (OFS/FFS/SFS) etc.
- Disk swapper key shortcuts:
- END+1-0 (not numeric keypad) = insert image from swapper slot 1-10
- END+SHIFT+1-0 = insert image from swapper slot 11-20
- END+CTRL+1-4 = select drive
- GUI drag'n'drop (no more ugly up/down arrows)
- Screenshots are now named _xxx.bmp
- User configurable emulation speed adjustment from 5 to 100 fps
- Rar and 7zip -archive support (using archiveaccess.dll)
- Some custom chipset emulation improvements here and there
- Improved drive click sound emulation
- X-Arcade build-in key mappings
- Onscreen disk and HD leds flash red while writing
- "Always on top"-windowed mode setting
