Amiga emulator: Amiberry 5.6.0
Amiberry is an Amiga emulator for ARM-based single-chip systems like the Raspberry Pi, the Odroid XU4 or the Tinkerboard from ASUS, which brings some newly developed features like a "WHDLoad-Booter" or support for controller configuration using RetroArch. For example it is used in the Workbench distribution AmiKit for the Raspberry Pi 4/400.
A few moments ago, version 5.6.0 has been released. Changes:
Bugfixes
- Fix "default" button setting not fully enabling CD32 pad mode when CD32 was configured.
- Detection of hotplug controllers didn't work after 5.4
- Restart would cause crashes sometimes
- fixed controller axis should be separate from joystick axis handling
- memory pattern would cause graphics glitches in some cases
- virtual keyboard now works with CD32 mode as well
- fixed crash if something triggered a CPU HALT3
- fixed various compiler warnings
- revert custom, blitter and drawing to WinUAE 4.4.0 standard
- 50Hz scroll was not smooth
- improve scrolling smoothness under 50Hz
- Don't use SDL_Quit until we actually quit Amiberry
