Amiga-Emulator: WinUAE 3.2 emulates PCI-hardware and bridgeboards
For the first time, version 3.2 of the well-known Amiga emulator WinUAE can emulate a lot of additional hardware extensions. Besides, the 680x0 JIT and the PPC-emulation are now 64-bit compatible. WinUAE now requires a processor with Streaming SIMD Extensions 2 (Pentium 4 or later).
New features:
- 64-bit compatible 680x0 JIT
- 64-bit compatible PPC emulation
- PCI bridgeboards
- Commodore PC/AT bridgeboards
- A2410 RTG Zorro II board
- DCTV video port graphics adapter (Partially)
- Genlock "emulation", including transparency and ECS genlock features
- Directory harddrive and hardfile KS 1.2 and older full autoboot support
Initially emulated hardware:
- Accelerator boards:
- HD controllers:
- 3-State Apollo 500/2000
- A2090 previously missing ST-506 support
- Elaborate Bytes A.L.F.
- Kupke Golem Fast SCSI/IDE
- Mainhattan Data Paradox SCSI
- Multi Evolution 500/2000
- OMTI-Adapter
- Spirit Technology HDA-506
- Tecmar T-Card/T-Disk
- Vortex System 2000
- Xebec 9720H
- Commodore x86 bridgeboards:
- A1060 (A1000 Sidecar)
- A2088
- A2088T
- A2286
- A2386SX
- x86 bridgeboard expansion devices:
- AT IDE HD controller (A2286 and A2386SX)
- XTIDE Universal BIOS compatible IDE HD controller
- ISA VGA display card (Cirrus Logic GD542x based)
- PCI bridgeboards:
- G-REX
- Mediator 1200/4000
- Prometheus
- PCI bridgeboard compatible PCI cards:
- FM801 sound card
- ES1370 (SB128) sound card
- RTL8029 network card
Other changes:
- CD and sound card emulation audio output quality improved
- 68020/030 prefetch emulation improved
- High DPI display support improved
- AGA subpixel scrolling emulated
- Support shortcut paths (.lnk) in command line
- More undocumented chipset features supported
- Right control = right Windows key option
- Memory accesses only -cycle-exact mode
- UAE devices (uaeserial etc) are compatible with KS 1.2 and older
- Improved compatibility with very old A500 config files
Fixed bugs:
- WinPCap network mode didn't detect any devices
- 68030 data cache emulation fixes
- Custom to/from RTG mode switch didn't check for filter changes
- JIT on/off on the fly change (outside of GUI) was unreliable
- Keyboard layout changed (B/C only) during device re-enumeration
- D3D9 non-shader mode forgot scanline texture when switching modes
- Audio wave recording created huge broken wave files
- It was not possible to select HDF PCMCIA SRAM and IDE options
- Flash ROM and RTC file dialogs didn't allow creation of new files
