User-visible changes in 0.8.17:
- AGA should be a bit faster.
- AGA sprites emulation added by Toni Wilen.
- Numerous bug fixes.
- In the Unix version, the gtk UI has a lot more options available.
There's a new option "Enable copper speedup code"; I'd be interested in
hearing whether there's any software out there that does not work (or
runs slower) if this option is enabled.
- Now supports image files of high density floppies (Dr. Adil Temel).
- Support for A1000 Kickstart disks (Gerald Schnabel).
- The option to disable autoconfig devices no longer exists; the emulator
automatically recognizes if the Kickstart version is too old.
- Numerous improvements for the integrated debugger.
- State save/restore implemented by Toni Wilen. At the moment, this is
experimental, "use at your own risk" code. It is not guaranteed that
future versions of the emulator will be able to read snapshots saved by
this version. Test it and report bugs.
User-visible changes in 0.8.16:
- AGA playfield support (again) (Toni Wilen)
- In addition to plain mono and stereo, there's a new sound setting "mixed".
- There's a new option to set CPU speeds more accurately, it's called
"finegrain_cpu_speed".
- Numerous bug fixes
- Graphics should be faster; optimized code was accidentally commented out
in the previous release.
User-visible changes in 0.8.15:
- A few changes in the core of the custom chip emulation; this should mean
more accuracy in general, but likely also a few new bugs in this version.
It may be a little slower as well.
- "68040" emulation. Dedicated to all the clueless folks out there.
(with thanks to Christian Bauer)
User-visible changes in 0.8.14:
- More bug fixes:
* CPU emulation problem that could have caused copy protection schemes to
malfunction has been fixed.
* Some AGA problems fixed (one of them visible in ECS modes).
* UAE should work again on non-x86 systems.
- By default the emulator will try to approximate an A500 in CPU speed.
This setting existed before, but it's a bit more accurate now and on by
default.
- There is a new option to control the number of emulated disk drives.
- Software autofire for the keyboard joystick replacements
Changes from last packaged version:
User-visible changes in 0.8.12:
- Several bugfixes
User-visible changes in 0.8.11:
- Finally, an accurate copper emulation, thanks to Sam Jordan.
- Sprite emulation fixes, also due to Sam Jordan.
- Some CPU emulation fixes (Keith Rollin, Toni Wilen, Lauri Pesonen)
- Old command line options actually work now.
- Some floppy related lockups removed.
User-visible changes in 0.8.10:
- Audio interpolation
- Bugfixes for
* disk emulation
* FPU emulation
* CPU prefetch emulation (the "compatible" setting).
* some 2.0+ filesystem packets
* text-based UI (should compile again)
* some other parts
- People like me who liked the old command line options better can now use
(most of) them again.
User-visible changes in 0.8.9:
- The filesystem emulation should be able to emulate an Amiga FS more
accurately. Script/Pure bits and filenotes are kept.
- Patrick Ohly contributed SCSI support (currently Linux only) that allows
you to (e.g.) use CD writers with the emulator.
The package has ben changed to use the NetBSD sound driver instead of oss.
