Emulator: Denise V2.4
Denise is a cycle accurate and platform independant emulator which since version 2.0 can emulate an Amiga 500 and Amiga 1000 (Kickstart disks are required) in addition to a C64 (German YouTube video). Numerous amiga-specific changes have been made since our last report on version 2.21: among other things, emulation has been improved, especially the disk drive, and a 4-player adapter is now supported. Detailed changes:
Version 2.4
- support macOS Metal graphics driver with shaders
- added Cocoa as a keyboard driver for macOS (avoid the system dialog to allow input)
- added BSD UHID joypad driver, supported on FreeBSD, NetBSD and OpenBSD
- reworked on-screen status messages
- separated(C64/Amiga) file dialog preview options and moved to Software UI
- improved openGL shader cache
- improved handling of shader UI
- added possibility to assign a different floppy sound profile for external drives
- Amiga: added new floppy sound profile
- Amiga: emulate Blitter<>Copper conflict
Version 2.3
- added RetroArch Shader support
- Amiga: improved emulation, especially the disk drive
- Amiga: emulated Bitplane <> Refresh conflicts
- Amiga: Final Fight Enhanced supported by temporary option to fake ECS Denise
- Amiga: written floppy disks are now saved in a second file (this does not apply to uncompressed ADF (don't worry, emulator asks if ADF can be changed)
- Amiga: added 4-player adapter
- Amiga: added copy protection dongle support
- fixed a bug not finishing Drag'n'Drop in Linux GTK
- fixed some OSX bugs/crashes [looking for tester]
- improved mouse capture handling for all OSes
- UI changes (volume slider has moved to status bar, added option to capture pointer by left mouse button)
- changed BuildSystem to CMAKE
- added Linux/BSD XCB input driver for keyboard/mouse
- improved GTK window resizing in some desktop environments
Version 2.2
- added D3D11 driver
- added italian translation (thanks to Luigi)
- added an option to rotate the screen (90°/180°/270°)
- added an option to force a single instance when opening another instance from frontend loader or file explorer
- fixed Amiga basic volume (louder)
- added a more easy way to set stereo separation (Audio -> DSP)
Denise is available cross platform for Windows 32/64 XP and higher, macOS (from version 10.9 on, Intel and Arm) and Linux (Ubuntu).
