WinUAE 6.0.2 (22.12.2025)
=========================

6.0.x bug fixes:

- Custom chipset emulation fixes.
- Status bar Power and DFx: offset when selecting with a mouse click.
- Add Harddrive didn't always mount the drive at boot even if it was selected.
- Restoring statefile with active blitter may not have restored blitter state correctly.
- Horizontal offset that follows mouse cursor in some chipset modes and it was possible to have graphics garbage near left and right borders.
- Horizontal centering positioning in programmed/scandoubled modes.
- Lightpen fixes (For example blank screen or trails in some configurations)
- Native/RTG autoswitch didn't default to enabled.
- A2024 and other display port adapters work again.
- S3 Virge PCI was broken.
- Fixed AVI Output wrong colors, possible vertical jitter and possible crashes.
- WASAPI sound driver supported mode/channel/frequency enumaration stopped early with some sound drivers resulting in no sound.
- Random guru at bootup with JIT enabled.
- Autoresolution + NTSC (possibly also in some other display modes) switched between lores and hires continuously.
- On the fly switching to 68000/010 cycle-exact from any other mode caused CPU to run too slow.
- Multiple crash fixes.

Other bug fixes:

- Fixed bad drive click code, sound buffer size affected click sound quality.
- Fixed stuck left ALT when using ALT-TAB and Misc panel when active and mouse uncaptured = pause emulation.
- Fixed harddrive imager GUI getting stuck at the end of imaging process.
- D3D11 fullscreen mode active, enter GUI, switch screen mode to windowed or full-window, press Reset button: GUI closed, emulation screen was not restored.
- External HRTMon ROM images were not accepted.
- Gameports remap window didn't always list all mapped input events, mapping analog stick to digital joystick movement now always selects digital event target ([-][+] at the end of event name).
- If A2090 or Mast FireBall hardfile is added, RDB mode was not fully activated automatically.

New features:

- Added "Always stretch NTSC mode" checkbox to Filter panel.
- Added "Override initial native chipset display" to RTG panel.
- Filter panel position and size numeric text boxes added and increased manual mode positioning range.
- If 680x0 CPU is stopped with IPL mask 7 (CPU can only wake up with NMI or reset), CPU OSD shows CPU as stopped.
- Added Processor slot RAM setting to main memory GUI. This RAM type is much more common in real world than Z3 RAM.
- If any GUI text box is selected, ESC will only unfocus the text box instead of exiting the GUI.
- Using GUI to increase Chip RAM size and emulation has not yet been started and OCS Agnus is selected: set Agnus model to ECS.
- RDB/OFS/FFS hardfile creation option is now separated to RDB and OFS/FFS. RDB adds RDSK identifier to new hardfile and enables Full drive/RDB mode automatically.
- Added 3.2.3 KS ROM checksums.


WinUAE 6.0.1 (10.08.2025)
=========================

6.0.0 bug fixes:

- Entering and exiting GUI when in fullscreen mode crashed.
- Vertical and horizontal centering works again.
- ECS superhires works again.
- Filter overlay graphics display positioning/size calculation was broken.
- Virtual mouse driver mode was not in sync with host cursor, both RTG and native modes.
- Fast drawing mode with 32-bit Chip RAM fix.
- When switching from emulated graphics board to native programmed mode screen, sometimes native screen had horizontal offset
- In some situations emulated graphics board was not drawn fully, bottom part was blank.
- Add Harddrive: Storage devices containing MBR partition table with RDB in later blocks was not detected correctly.
- Chipset COPxJMP sequence didn't work in some situations.
- Rarely used chipset collision register fix.
- TCP serial mode hang fix.
- OpalVision crash fix.

Other bug fixes and updates:

- PC keyboard without numpad/end key optional translation mode. When enabled, PageUp becomes End (End still works normally). Because cartridge freeze is also PageUp, freeze becomes PageUp + PageDown. END/PageUp + cursor left is Pause and cursor right is Warp mode. (Replacing print screen key). PageUp + 7890/UIOP/JKL<key right of L>/M<key right of M> emulates numpad. Note that numpad emulation is done before PC to Amiga translation which means it does not override enabled numpad joystick option. Option in Input panel. This is registry/ini specific setting (Similar to F11 swap option).
- Copilot key now works as a right Windows (Right Amiga) key. Note that this is a quick hack and causes some (harmless) extra shift and left Windows key presses and releases when Copilot key is pressed and released because Copilot key is weird.
- Added Native/RTG autoswitcher option. Previously all RTG boards without built-in switcher always autoswitched, now it is optional, default enabled.
- ROM scanner now detects CyberStorm MK3/PPC and BlizzardPPC flash rom images using checksums. Address ranges that make ROM image unique (Serial number/board config and boot menu config data areas) are skipped in checksum calculation.
- Built-in AROS ROM updated.
- ROM scanner/loader CD32 1M single ROM handling fix.
- RoboCop 3 dongle emulation fixed.
- Debugger disassembler miscellaneous fixes and updates.


WinUAE 6.0.0 (02.07.2025)
=========================

Major update to custom chipset emulation. Internally almost everything in main chipset emulation has been rewritten.
Fastest possible/JIT mode chipset timing/sync had major changes which can cause side-effects.
Bugs are very possible, especially in very rarely used features.

Custom chipset rewrite:

- Custom chipset emulation (Agnus/Alice and Denise/Lisa) almost completely rewritten. Almost every part of chipset emulation is now internally cycle accurate.
- Custom chipset Denise/Lisa emulation is now running in separate thread for large performance increase in accurate emulation modes compared to previous versions.
- VPOSW/VHPOSW tricks are now cycle-accurately emulated without restrictions.
- Horizontal and vertical blanking and sync start/end, csync, csync equalization pulses, etc are now fully cycle-accurately emulated, both hardwired and programmed. Mixing of hardwired and programmed is fully supported. Agnus/Alice hardwired PAL/NTSC sync generator is almost logic gate level emulated.
- "Display" and Agnus/Alice vertical and horizontal counters are now fully separately emulated, display emulation now works correctly even if Agnus vertical or horizontal is moved backwards or forwards or anywhere (even outside of normal display range), unlimited times per line and/or field.
- All screenmodes (including "Fake" NTSC or similar mode) now count total number of "display" lines and uses it to setup display height. These modes now work even if they do multiple V(H)POSW modifications.
- Interlace detection now uses vsync timing like real displays.
- BPLCON0 ERSY=1 without connected genlock sync stop timing is now accurate. This was faked previously.
- Full AGA hires/shres bitplane and sprite horizontal granularity support. Separate subpixel mode does not exist anymore.
- ECS Agnus/AGA UHRES bitplane and sprite RGA DMA slots (0x78, 0x7a) emulated. Completely useless feature because UHRES can only do some DMA transfers to nowhere. It needs extra hardware that was never implemented. UHRES needs to be emulated because (possibly accidentally enabled) UHRES DMA can steal cycles from copper, blitter and CPU.
- NTSC LOL (long line) state is accurately emulated. Mismatched STRLONG strobe and LOL state now causes correct lores pixel wide horizontal shift. (Mismatched = for example CPU writing to STRLONG when line is not long)
- Blitter channel sequencer should be 100% accurate now, except possibly line to non-line mid operation switch. Blitter "micro-operation" timings are not yet 100%: when exactly it applies A shift, B shift etc. This will be tested and implemented in the future. Only affects blitter result if BLTxDAT/shifts/etc are modified mid-blit. Channel enable/fill mode/desc/minterm/BLTxMOD/BLTxPT mid-blit changes should be already fully accurate.
- Collision emulation is now very fast. Collision mode default changed to Full collision.
- Ultra extreme debug mode now shows normally hidden bitplane and sprite pixels inside horizontal and vertical blanking periods. Previously only background color was fully visible.
- DMA debugger has much more detailed information available.

Other new features:

- Low level keyboard emulation. Emulates keyboard microcontroller internal ROM code and keyboard matrix, optionally with or without NKRO. All 3 keyboard MCU variants supported. (CSG 6570-036, 68HC05C and D8039HLC. 6500-1 used in A1000 keyboards is same as 6570-036 but with older ROM code. 6500-1 ROM is not yet dumped). Caps lock led state is fully emulated in low level keyboard emulation modes, including demos that flash caps lock led. Chipset panel "Keyboard connected" checkbox replaced with Keyboard mode ("Disconnected", "UAE high level keyboard" and list of different low level emulated keyboard models)
- PCI Matrox Millennium, Millennium II, Mystique and Mystique 220 emulation from 86box (originally from PCem)
- Merged Voodoo 3 emulation updates from 86box.
- Added 512kWOM A1000 512k WOM expansion emulation. Option in Expansions->Built-in expansions.
- Added RIPPLE IDE controller emulation.

Fixes:

- Prometheus FireStorm PCI bridge PCI IO mapping fixed.
- Fixed Mediator 1200TX second PCI window mapping logic.
- Fixed TekMagic onboard RAM config type.
- Do not reject (reject = not hardware accelerated, lets Picasso96 software fallback to handle it) uaegfx Picasso96 blit operation if RenderInfo BytesPerRow field is zero. Zero BPR is allowed.
- GDI mode didn't free all resources when switching between native and RTG mode.
- If selected graphics API is not supported, test all other options. Previously failing D3D9 switched to GDI, even if D3D11 was available.
- Fast/non-accurate emulation mode and writing to CIA high timer register didn't load timer from latch immediately in oneshot mode if timer was already running (Introduced in 4.9.x)
- uaegfx RTG vertical blank interrupt might have been duplicated or lost in some situations (very old bug), depending on RTG panel refresh rate setting.
- Passthrough printing mode fix for v4+ Windows printer drivers.
- Fixed FDI disk image support.
- JIT FPU mode FPU registers lost some accuracy when FPU registers were read/written to/from memory with FMOVEM.
- Removing last sound device on the fly (for example USB sound card without enabled on-board sound device) crashed in WASAPI mode.
- Added A1000 EHB Denise and non-EHB Denise models to Chipset panel. Also renamed existing entries.
- Fixed strange window movement when clicking on title bar and keeping it pressed and "Automatically capture mouse when window is activated" was enabled.
- Expansion panel SCSI controller ID selection enable/disable/selection fixed. (For example A4091)

Updates:

- Default configuration is now cycle-exact A500. Previously default was approximate A500.
- Query PC drive/network drive/removable drive status only after confirming drive type first. For example if "Add PC drives at startup" or "CDFS automount" is only ticked, don't query status of possible network drives that might not be mapped or available, causing boot delays.
- CD32 CD reads should be more real optical drive friendly, when CD32 is reading data sequentially (playing CD streaming animation or video), host side CD sector reads are now also sequential, without periodically re-reading part of previously read sectors.
- Disabled annoying CD audio playback aOSD led flicker.
- When exiting debugger, restore focus back to previously active window.
- If real HD/memory card has Windows supported partition table and partition metadata can be queried without administrator privileges but administrator privileges are needed to read/write partition data, list partition(s) in Add Harddrive dialog with "ACCESS DENIED" text. Previously partition(s) were not listed.
- Added Amiga GPT partition type support. Works the same as 0x76 partition type with MBR partitioned drives.
- Add harddrive Lock option didn't lock all partitions if drive had MBR partition table + one or more Windows supported partition types.
- GUI Configurations file list's expanded tree nodes are now stored in registry/ini and are loaded and expanded automatically in following sessions.
- Hide expansion device "autoboot disabled" checkbox when device does not have any autoboot jumpers. (or have nothing to do with storage devices)
- Integer scale horizontal/vertical resolution aspect ratio correction should now work more sanely (for example if superhires + vertical doubling, output will be always vertically doubled first, after doubling, integer scaling ratio is selected). Supports also programmed doublescan modes.
- TV Overscan options now work when combined with most filter modes.
- Added (config file only currently, "rtg_noautomodes=true") option that disables uaegfx automatically generated screen modes. With Picasso96 v3.4+ and P96Prefs new modes can be created manually, just like when using real hardware. Note: Older Picasso96 versions and PicassoMode utility don't support manual uaegfx modes.
- Added 3840x1080 to known uaegfx automatically generated resolution list ("known" = gets static mode id)
- Fixed crash when doubleclicking config tree view root node.
- Subpixel emulation option removed. Emulation is now always subpixel accurate in accurate emulation modes.
- On the fly chipset type switching improved (For example AGA colors are now preserved, not all registers were preserved fully previously)
- Added line count and type to bottom border status line (for example 313p or 625i), fully supports all weird modes.
- Obsolete 16-bit host color depth support removed.
- All software filters removed. Removal of 16-bit host screen depth support and always-enabled temporary graphics buffer (new chipset emulation does not need it anymore) makes software filter support unnecessarily complex and they are obsolete anyway. In the future better shader filter support will be implemented.
- Serial port TCP/IP mode uses now TCP_NODELAY flag to reduce latency.
- If selected WASAPI sound channel mode is not supported, try all possible channel modes until supported mode is found, or until all combinations have been tested. Also if channel count needs changing from stereo to higher channel count (for example sound device only supports 6 or 8 CH modes internally), use 6/8 channel cloned stereo variant because user might only have stereo speakers.
- Limit initial Windows to Amiga clipboard copy to max 30k (initial = when Amiga is booted and Windows clipboard is not empty) if clipboard sharing is enabled. This prevent slow startup if clipboard sharing is enabled and configuration is not fast and Windows clipboard has some random large image.
- Added address and length to sample ripper file names.


WinUAE 5.3.1 (19.10.2024)
=========================

New features:

Added Picmatic Marbelle Vice and Tierras Salvajes 100Hz TV laser disc arcade game support.

Updates:

Implemented OpalVision undocumented automatic VRAM bank switch. King of Karate demo now have working scrolling background.
Implemented Mediator 1200TX 2x4M PCI window mode.
Serial port emulation updates: transmit speed is now more accurate, receive speed is throttled if data is arriving too quickly.
CTRL+F12 windowed/fullscreen switch now remembers previous fullscreen mode (fullscreen or full-window) and it is stored between sessions in registr/ini.

Bug fixes:

Fixed GamePorts panel "Swap ports".
Some screen resolution/font combinations caused crash when on screen keyboard was opened.
Fixed music glitch in James Pond 2 (non-AGA). Most likely also affected some other interrupt based music players too.
Golem SCSI II HD controller configuration didn't load correctly.
Fixed SPRxPOS modification in last possible moment being missed causing sprite to be disabled. (Fixes Reshoot R background flickering)
Fixed possible crash when AmigaOS 4 resets during boot and switches to PPC mode if directory filesystem emulation was in use.
SCSI CD audio PLAY AUDIO TRACK/INDEX returned error if end track was higher than last track. SCSI spec allows it and it should not cause error.
Prometheus Firestorm PCI bridge interrupt state bit was inverted.


WinUAE 5.3.0 (01.06.2024)
=========================

New emulated RTG boards:

CyberVision/BlizzardVision PPC. 2D only, 3D is not implemented. (Permedia 2)
GVP EGS 110/24. (INMOS G364)
Graffity. (Cirrus Logic CL-GD5428)
Merlin, includes support for configurable serial number used by ProBench (Tseng ET4000W32)
oMniBus (Tseng ET4000AX or ET4000W32)
Rainbow III (INMOS G360)
Visiona (INMOS G300)

All "classic" 1990s RTG boards are now emulated.

New features/updates:

Prometheus FireStorm PCI bridge emulation
Release raw input devices when GUI is open (except during input Test/Remap) or when debugger window is active. Allows Windows shortcut keys like Win+E to work without need to unfocus the window.
Added Misc panel option to disable default on screen keyboard gamepad button 4 mapping.
Some uae-configuration (and other similar) debugging logging messages automatically opened the console window. Now only entering debugger will open it.
Added "Always on (Fixed only)" sound filter option. This enables A500 fixed filter but never enables "led filter". (A1200 does not have fixed filter, only "led" filter)
Replaced old Windows 2000 compatible Windows clipboard handling with newer, simpler and more reliable method introduced in Vista.
Allow also 68020+ CPUs to fetch instruction words from custom chipset space. Only if more compatible is set. If some program really wants to do something weird like execute code located in AGA palette registers :)
Lightpen/gun cursor in any edge of screen: lightpen/gun not pointing at the screen = position can't be read by the program.
Statefile shortcut keys now select current config file name as a base statefile name (for example, if "test1.uae" config file is loaded, SHIFT+END+0 will save statefile as "test1.uss". Quickstart mode config still uses original default "default.uss")
Both "SaveImage" (automatically created ext adf when write-enabling non-writable image like ipf) file extension variants are now detected automatically when checking if file exists. Paths panel SaveImage mode option now only affects generated file name when new saveimage is created.
Added LDP-1450 laserdisc player OSD font emulation. Fixes laserdisc arcade game Platoon (Nova) previously missing "YOU'RE HIT!!" messages. (All OSD graphics are generated by Amiga except this message!)

Bug fixes:

Fixed XT based Bridgeboards non-working floppy drive emulation, broke during 5.1 DraCo updates (wrong density detection)
Serial port data receive was unreliable. Loopback serial port mode didn't work in fast CPU modes.
CD32 FMV video image size and positioning was weird in most scaled modes.
Exclusive fullscreen and RTG resolution switch (RTG resolution switch to another RTG resolution without switch to native mode and back) didn't change fullscreen resolution.
Some ECS programmed modes (for example SuperPlus) had first visible line blanked.
Fixed corruption in some "weird" programmed modes, introduced in 5.0 betas.
Some hardware emulated RTG boards had flickering colors during horizontal panning (>8 bit modes only)
Fixed ECS Denise superhires mode hires sprite pointer strange odd/even horizontal movement.
Fixed pre-KS 1.2 HDF/directory filesystem boot. Broke long time ago.
Multi-monitor active state was not fully reset when system was hard reset. (Multimonitor window was open -> hard reset -> window didn't open anymore again)
If x86 bridgeboard SVGA and also other hardware emulated RTG board was active and END+F9 was used to switch monitors: both monitors' output was drawn in same window, causing corrupted graphics and possibly also crash if monitor sizes were too different.
It was not possible to write and read ECS/AGA genlock transparency bit in color registers. Was broken long time ago.
Delay ALG LDP seek complete status reply slightly. Fixes laserdisc arcade game Platoon (Nova) few second hangs.
Los Justicieros (Zorton Brothers) laserdisc arcade game left holster hooked up correctly. (Was stuck active previously)


WinUAE 5.2.0 (18.02.2024)
=========================

S3 Trio64 PCI RTG board.
On screen led font is now configurable, settings in GUI Miscellaneous panel.
A2410 updates (Latest Picasso96 driver with DMA mode enabled graphics corruption)
All emulated RTG boards now autoswitch (Automatic switch between chipset mode and RTG mode). Previously only RTG boards that have built-in switcher and PCI RTG boards autoswitched.
Do not emulate special cases in native chipset screen mode last and first line(s) unless Overscan mode is Overscan+ or higher. (For example OCS Denise top and bottom line mismatched blanking start and end)
NTSC mode screen vertical positioning improved.
Disk swapper insert/remove cursor position now works as expected. Same image can be inserted in multiple slots.

5.1.0 Bug fixes:

Fast 68020+ mode interrupt timing fix. (Some games hung or had missing or badly playing sound)
Copper timing was unreliable in non-CE modes (Mainly affected horizontally multiplexed sprites)
Dark mode was not initialized if config file was started directly (for example from command line), without opening GUI. Some sub-dialogs didn't support dark mode.
Zero length disk DMA with enabled disk word sync never finished (some copy protections failed to work).
Game Ports panel default config overrode button 4 with on screen keyboard enable/disable option even if it was already configured in Input panel.

Older bug fixes:

Any TV overscan option + NTSC mode: few pixel grapohics corruption was visible in right edge of screen.
Many hardware emulated RTG boards had problems with horizontal panning.
68040 MMU emulation fix. (MOVEM restart didn't work correctly in all situations and MOVES 68040-only special case bus fault behavior was wrong)
CyberVision 64/3D and Picasso IV overlay fixes. P96PipDemo is now working correctly.
Ateo Pixel 64 had BGR/RGB swapped colors in most color depths.
UAE AHI ignored AHI volume slider setting.
Fixed mouse cursor jumping randomly when in tablet mode and clicking mouse button(s).
Game Ports panel input device type getting stuck or entering Test/Remap window crashing in some situations.
Some config file and registry/ini paths were always written in absolute format even if WinUAE was configured to relative path mode.
"AVI output enabled" (and few similar on/off buttons) button type changed, previously they worked unexpectedly in some situations, visible state was not always matching internal state.
Some sub dialogs (for example Gameports input mapping autofire) had old style and no high DPI support.
256 color screenshot mode created wrong colors in some situations, usually when AGA and almost all palette entries were allocated.
Changing some native display settings (Filter/Display panel) settings didn't reset all required display parameters until full display reset (for example window was resized)


WinUAE 5.1.0 (19.12.2023)
=========================

New features/updates: UI

On screen keyboard. Default mapped to pad button 4.
Gamepad GUI control. Use game pad to control WinUAE GUI with some limits.
Optional dark mode (Windows 10 or newer required)
Emulation window dragging and resize does not anymore pause emulation.
New features/updates: emulation
Built-in Munt MT-32/CM-32L emulation. Emulated devices listed in MIDI out setting. ROM images should be in <WinUAE rom path>\mt32-roms. or c:\mt32-rom-data\.
AT&T DSP3210 emulation (AA3000 prototype). Not complete.
More programmed chipset screen mode emulation improvements.
Disk emulation improved, undocumented disk read DMA "last word may not come in" bug emulated.

Chipset emulation updates and fixes.

"Autoclip screenshots" option now supports programmed native screen modes.
Native<>RTG and RTG<>RTG mode switching optimizations.
A2410 display card emulation updates, works now with new Picasso96 driver.
Input panel Backslash/F11 option now has third option that restores pre-5.0 keymap behavior.
Do not list GPT partitioned harddrives in "Add Harddrives" panel.
Football Director 2 dongle emulation.
Quickstart Host Configuration menu first option renamed, "Default configuration" -> "Current host configuration". Added new option "Default host configuration" that resets host configuration to defaults.
Hard reset now randomizes CPU reset start up delay and initial floppy motor position.

Bugs fixes

DMS brute force decryption failed to work with some encrypted DMS files.
Alt-Tab from D3D11 fullscreen RTG mode made hardware mouse cursor invisible.
Some configurations crashed when GUI Reset or Restart button was clicked.
Enter GUI, eject disk, insert new disk, exit GUI: Disk was inserted immediately which is physically impossible and can confuse programs. Inserting disk without manually ejecting it first worked correctly.
GUI Restart button didn't fully restore GUI position/size if "Restarting" from fullscreen or full-window mode.
Some configs crashed when GUI Restart button or Reset was pressed.
WASAPI sound was disabled if sound driver only supported 8 channel audio.
Some configurations opened multiple tiny inactive multi-monitor mode emulation windows without enabled multiple monitors.
Workbench programmed screen mode (DBLPAL etc) positioning was not always correct when switching from other native mode.
None serial port emulation mode and fast CPU configuration: serial port driver hung if serial data transmit was attempted.
Integer scale + full window: Display panel windowed width and height was used instead of full window size (desktop size) when calculating scaling values.
Screen might have flickered when starting Picasso96 RTG screen dragging.
Multiple 0x76 partitions per HD/card can be mounted now, previously only first was mounted and the rest become zero size non-existing drives.
USB HID input device usage page check fixed, it accepted devices that had nothing to do with being input device.

Gamepad GUI control details

A = select (pad mode)/left mouse click (mouse mode)
B = right mouse click (mouse mode).
Y = change active GUI area (pad mode)/TAB UI element change (mouse mode).
D-pad = select UI elements, "pad mode".
Left stick = move mouse, "mouse mode".

Currently requires XInput compatible gamepad.

Onscreen keyboard details

Pad button 4 is default mapped to open/close on screen keyboard input event (if loaded config has button 4 mapped to something else, button is not mapped to OSK)
Pad button/d-pad that normally controls Amiga joystick moves keyboard selection. Joystick movements and button presses are not sent to Amiga side as long as OSK is open.
Fire button press = send selected key's press
Fire button release = send selected key's release
Second button press = toggle state of selected key. Keep shift or control or other qualifier key pressed.
Second button release = does nothing.
Keyboard layout is US layout + 2 keys that are used in international layout variants + few bonus "keys".
If GUI is entered when OSK is open, GUI pad control is automatically enabled.


WinUAE 5.0.0 (31.05.2023)
=========================

Many GDI mode bugs fixed.
Integer scaling works correctly in Overscan+ and higher modes.
"Remove interlace artifacts" was unreliable and caused graphics corruption in accurate modes.
SCSI CD command READ TOC, format type 0 returned invalid data.
Serial port and inter-process serial port was unreliable in accurate modes.
VHPOSW/VPOSW mid-screen vertical and horizontal changes are now more accurately emulated. Smooth Copper / Up front demo specific hack is (finally!) not needed anymore and was removed.
Multiple chipset emulation (bitplanes, sprites, blitter) bug fixes.

Older bugs fixed

A600 non-expanded Quickstart incorrectly had RTC enabled.
D3D11 mode scanlines/masks are not affected by scaling anymore.
Fixed possible crash in floppy emulation and when exiting GUI.
Inserting supported non-Amiga formatted disk image (for example PC DOS formatted disk image) in standard Amiga 3.5" DD drive was rejected, drive compatibility check didn't accept standard 3.5" DD drive. Image was accepted if drive was 3.5" HD drive.
Mounting executable as HD floppy image created broken disk structure if file was larger than 1329664 bytes.
Notification icon -> Floppy drives: DF1, DF2 and DF3 selected image from DF0:
On the fly switch from AGA to OCS/ECS and then back didn't always restore original AGA background color.
Picasso IV flash ROM emulation support.
Prometheus PCI bridge PCI config space byte wide access endian swap fix.
ROM rescan in ini mode didn't clear previously detected ROMs.
uaegfx and hardware emulated RTG board and emulation window smaller than RTG resolution: part of right or bottom of display was clipped.

New features/updates: UI

Added new KS ROMs to ROM scanner.
Added Disable keyboard and Disable game controllers when mouse not captured options to Pri & Extensions panel.
Added custom data path configuration to Paths panel. Data path = default path where config files, logs, statefiles etc are loaded and saved.
Bring GUI window on top if emulation window gets left mouse button double click or F12 (or configured GUI key) key press and GUI is open. Close GUI if ESC is pressed when GUI is open and emulation window has focus.
FloppyBridge write protection status in GUI is now mirroring real drive floppy protection status.
Hardware info panel shows complete memory map when emulation has been started.

New features/updates: emulation

1.5M Chip RAM size is now supported in all configurations. (Except if JIT is enabled)
Added screen rotation support, to fully support Fast Draw Showdown (American Laser games) game that had 90 degree rotated display. D3D 9 and D3D 11 modes only.
ECS Denise superhires sprite accurate color selection emulation ("scrambled" odd/even palette access).
Keyboard reset handling changed, now system is kept in reset as long as keys are kept pressed.
Programmed native display mode support improved, automatic aspect ratio correction improved.
RTG hardware sprite (mouse cursor) is now properly clipped when near edges of screen.
"Reset warp mode" implemented. Start emulation in warp mode, automatically switches off when running program or KS ROM shows something on screen.
Serial port now have separate options to enable/disable handshake/status pin emulation (RTS/CTS/DTR/DTE/CD) and Ring Indicator.
uaegfx RTG P96Prefs support.
Striker Manager and Multi-Player Soccer Manager dongle emulation.
Statefile complete blitter state save/restore is now fully supported in cycle-accurate modes. Previously blitter was force-finished before saving state.
Ultra extreme overscan mode now includes blanking regions, HV sync and Composite sync regions drawn using grid pattern.

Possible Breaking change: default keyboard layout changed

Key left of backspace (key that does not exist in PC keyboards) is now mapped to F11 and key between zero and above key is now mapped to key in same physical location as key in Amiga keyboard. Input panel has checkbox that swaps these two keys.
Key above shift and left of enter is now mapped to same physical location as key in Amiga keyboard.
Strange German-only keymap special #-key mapping removed.

And more!


WinUAE 4.10.1 (23.01.2023)
==========================

WinUAE 4.10.0 bugs fixed:

Chipset emulation updates and bug fixes.
Interlace filter mode saved invalid config in certain situations, causing crash when loaded. Also added validation to config loader that detects similar config errors.
GDI mode RTG hardware cursor leaved garbage when it was in top/left corner of screen and it was not fully disabled when Amiga was reset.
Serial port Ring Indicator signal fixed. If both printer and serial port was enabled, printer status was invalid.

Older bugs fixed:

Input device's Input panel custom configuration was lost if config was loaded and saved when custom configured input device was not connected.
Game Ports panel custom input configuration was not automatically remapped to original input device if order or number of input devices changed.
Game Ports panel "Default" game controller type didn't fully switch to CD32 pad mode when CD32 hardware was configured.
FM801 PCI sound card didn't work in Voodoo 3 + Mediator configuration.
PCI bridgeboard crash when accessing non-existing board's IO/RAM space.
Exclusive fullscreen Direct 3D 11 mode + Fullscreen GUI Misc panel option ticked and entering GUI: GUI window was not positioned correctly.
Video recording after loading statefile recorded one empty and one corrupted frame when recording was started.

New features/updates:

Added continuous screenshot mode to GUI. When ticked, screenshot is taken automatically every frame.
Disabled move left/right joystick autoswitching mode. It was too easy to do it accidentally. Only buttons are supported.
Clear Harddrives panel list when loading hardware-only config.
Taking screenshot when DF0: is enabled but empty and CD drive is enabled but not empty: select CD image name. (Previously CD was ignored)


WinUAE 4.10.0 (18.12.2022)
=========================

4.10 is basically 5.0 preview version. Large amounts of 68000 and chipset accuracy improvements, remaining missing bits will be included in 5.0.

Major update:

68000 based unexpanded (with optional Slow or Fast RAM expansion) configurations are now 100% cycle-accurate.
Big thanks to ross for writing test programs that required perfect cycle accuracy. Lots of expected and unexpected hardware features found and implemented.

Featute updates that got delayed but will be implemented in 5.0:

OCS and ECS Denise mid screen resolution changes are not pixel perfect, correct chip model specific bit pattern is not emulated yet. AGA is pixel perfect.
Not all blitter line draw width != 2 (invalid line draw configuration, normally not used) conditions are 100% accurate.
Disk status/interrupt timing is not fully confirmed yet.

4.9.x bugs fixed:

Sprite to playfield and playfield to playfield collisions were unreliable.
RTG (uaegfx) overlay was not drawn. 32-bit Windows only.
Magic mouse mode without virtual mouse driver installed: mouse position was incorrect in RTG modes and it also ignored scaling modes.
If hardware emulated RTG board VRAM was immediately (no gap in address space) after any RAM/ROM region and JIT direct was enabled: first 4096 bytes (host CPU page size) of VRAM was not fully JIT direct compatible and any direct read or write to first 4096 bytes would not access VRAM correctly, causing unexpected graphics glitches.
Quickstart panel floppy bootblock check used current track of drive (not track 0). Broken when FloppyBridge support was added.
Hires resolution and hires BPLCON1 bit set (or shres and shres BPLCON1 bit): single pixel horizontal offset may have appeared in right side of screen. AGA and non-subpixel mode only.
CD32/CDTV Quickstart mode "remembered" previous DF0: setting and didn't disable it by default (even if Quickstart panel showed it as disabled).
CD32/CDTV Quickstart panel DF0: was not possible to select/enable.
Z2 RAM configuration was unreliable.

Older bugs fixed:

CHD CD image CD audio timing fix.
Direct3D11 with custom shaders leaked memory.
Directory filesystem softlinks fixed.
68060 without FPU or disabled FPU and executing FPU instruction that uses -(An) or (An)+ addressing mode: D7 was modified when exception stack frame was created.
Reading from non-existing custom register always returned 0xFFFF instead of data that previous cycle's possible DMA access transferred.
Higher 68000/010 integer clock multipliers (4x+) in CE mode: chipset access timing was not accurate.
Second 1M extended ROM bank is now internally split to two 512k banks. Non-aligned bank start and size caused problems in some configs.
Hardware emulated RTG boards that have physically swapped red and blue output (Spectrum, Piccolo, Piccolo SD64) had wrong colors in 24/32-bit modes.
Piccolo Z3 and Piccolo SD64 Z3 had wrong autoconfig board logical size (which crashed the driver).
CD audio was not resumed if WinUAE was unminimized and minimize was configured to pause emulation.
 
New hardware emulation features and updates:

68000 emulation is finally fully cycle accurate, last missing part, interrupt level change detection timing, is now cycle accurate.
Custom chipset interrupt timing is now cycle accurate.
CIA emulation is now fully cycle accurate. Timers were accurate previously but now also interrupt timing, TOD counting, CPU/E-clock sync, and more, including undocumented side-effects are cycle accurate.
Serial port internal timing, interrupt timing, including SERDATR status bits are now cycle accurate (I used serial port interrupts as a timer in my cputester real 68000 interrupt timing tests)
Audio interrupt timing is now cycle accurate (Was almost fully accurate previously).
Blitter timing is now cycle accurate (previously startup behavior and interrupt timing was not fully accurate).
Blitter line mode with invalid settings (for example width not 2, octant and line direction mismatch etc) is now almost accurately emulated. Some conditions are not fully correct.
Copper is now cycle accurate, previously some special cases were not handled correctly.
More undocumented chipset features implemented.
A1000 Denise bug emulated: sprites end horizontally 1 lores pixel later than bitplane horizontal window end. Currently enabled when A1000 Agnus is selected.
OCS/ECS vs AGA EHB on/off mid screen change different behavior emulated.
Emulated chipset mode display is blanked if programmed mode is active but has invalid configuration (for example too short or too long sync pulses or missing syncs, genlock sync enabled without genlock, etc).
Optional display mode change resync black screen delay.
Programmed custom chipset modes again use also blanking timing to position the display in addition to vsync and hsync (Most real world SVGA monitors do the same).
Max allowed programmed mode non-interlaced vertical line count is now 800 (increased from 592), special 700+ line programmed modes are possible and compatible with real SVGA monitors.
Refresh cycles conflicting with bitplane DMA is now accurately emulated, including all display and audio related glitches it can cause.
Optional Chip RAM and Slow RAM power up pattern emulation, enabled by default.
Color palette is now filled with pseudo-random contents at power up (was all black previously).
Monitor type selection. Composite sync or H/V sync. ECS Agnus/AGA programmed display modes can generate different C-Sync and H/V sync signals.

New other features and updates:

RTG (uaegfx) Picasso96 v3.0+ mixed mode screen draggging is enabled by default.
RTG (uaegfx) blitter emulation now supports previously unsupported less common blitter operations.
RTG (uaegfx and emulated boards) automatic integer scaling support.
On the fly FloppyBridge drive change to normal or back now triggers automatic disk change condition.
Harddrive panel Full drive/RDB mode is now normal checbox. Hopefully it is less confusing than button that didn't look like a button.
Larger default GUI size and slightly larger font if Windows desktop is large enough (at least 1600*1024).
CD audio is now always mixed with Paula audio. Separate CD audio output support removed.
Some American Laser Games didn't have ROM descrambling support, also added missing ROM variants.
Added American Laser Games Quickstart support.
Added NVRAM path to Paths panel. Arcade/CD32/CDTV hardware NVRAM files default to this path.
Keyboard reset change, reset state is kept until at least one key is released.
CTRL+C in console log/debug window does not anymore close WinUAE. CTRL+C in newer Windows versions can be used as a Copy operation.
Changed CTRL+F12 fullscreen/windowed switch: If already switched from full-window to window. Next CTRL+F12 will return back to full-window, not fullscreen.
Optional interlace mode filter profile added.
DirectDraw mode was replaced with GDI mode. GDI mode does not support exclusive fullscreen but supports basic scaling modes and uaegfx hardware cursor that DirectDraw mode did not support.
Palette mode screenshot support. If enabled and screen has <= 256 colors, palette mode screenshot is created. It also attempts to preserve first 32 color entries if possible.
RTC is automatically enabled if chipset extra=<model without RTC> and system has fast ram, slow ram or chip ram expansion.
Save MSM6242B RTC model control registers to RTC file if they are modified. Previously only RF5C01A (Used in big box Amigas) control registers (and NVRAM) was saved.
If Quickstart ROM based Arcade hardware config (Arcadia or ALG) is selected, NVRAM file name is automatically set to ROM name. Genlock video file path is also set if ALG ROM is selected. Config files are not affected.
ROM file list sorting changed, added grouping, sort by group priority first (KS ROMs, extended KS ROMs, freezer ROMs etc..), then alphabetically.
Sometimes old graphics was temporarily visible in RTG modes if RTG had visible black borders (depends on scaling mode) and screen was switched and new screen had larger size/resolution.
Added "Slow" flag to RAM panel. If set, selected memory bank has Chip RAM timing but is not Chip RAM capable. Advanced chipset panel "C00000 is Fast RAM" removed, it is not needed anymore.

Debugging related updates and fixes:

Ultra extreme overscan mode. Shows complete full raster including blanking regions. Horizontal and vertical blanking disabled. COLOR0 changes are always visible.
DMA debugger shows CIA accesses (including cycles lost due to E-Clock sync) and Chip RAM RAS/CAS addressing values.
DMA debugger shows CPU memory access type (instruction fetch or data access). Interrupt level and interrupt level change detection are included.
DMA debugger shows CPU opcodes in basic form ("NOP", "MOVE" etc), vertically. Which can look a bit weird...
Added CPU STOP state information to DMA debugger (| = STOP idle cycle, + = STOP idle cycle and higher IPL detected = STOP ending soon)
Visual DMA debugger shows conflicting cycles as blinking red pixels.
Horizontal and vertical position are now included in debugger history output (H/HH)
Added OR, AND and XOR operators to debugger calculator (|, &, ^).
sp command parsed attached sprites incorrectly.
It was not possible to enter debugger anymore if CPU was stuck in stopped state after entering and exiting the debugger once.
Tracing STOP instruction now works differently, each single step executes one internal STOP "round".
Memwatch break point that crossed 64k "bank" didn't map last 64k "bank" if it was only partially needed.
Self modifying code (smc) debugger feature now clears detected modifications if 68020+ instruction cache is flushed.
DMA debugger (both console and visual) better support for variable/toggling horizontal and vertical line counts.

Detailed change log in winuaechangelog.txt


WinUAE 4.9.1 (02.02.2022)
========================

4.9.0 bugs fixed

JIT indirect was unstable.

x86 AT bridgeboard (A2286 and A2386SX) boot crash.
PCem RTG board 15 and 16-bit lores modes didn't horizontally double correctly.
Remove interlace artifact option added 1 scanline offset to bitplanes and sprites.
Custom chipset and programmed display mode updates and fixes.

Older bugs fixed

Mouse would start moving erratically if emulator has been running continuously more than 10 hours.
Integer scaling only worked correctly if horizontal (lores, hires, superhires) and vertical resolution (non-doubled, doubled) matched.Filtered lores had wrong colors if host graphics mode was 16-bit.
NTSC mode and software switch to PAL: display was incorrectly vertically stretched.
Software YUV based filters had bad colors (32-bit only)
Paula configured for 4us (GCR) mode but normal 2us MFM disk in drive: disk index reporting was unreliable.

Updates

Programmed display mode improvements (positioning, blanking etc)
uaegfx Picasso96 overlay now works correctly with screen dragging.

New features

It is now possible to type (almost) normally in warp mode. Keyboard key (if non-qualifier key) presses are released immediately in warp mode.
Epson printer emulation does not anymore print each page as a separate document.
Added IDE scsi.device disable hack. Makes booting noticeably quicker on OS39 and newer KS versions if mainboard IDE is not needed.
PCem Cirrus Logic SVGA emulation planar support enabled. Picasso96 supports 4bit/16 color planar mode.
"Default" filter and integer scale filters now automatically double horizontal or vertically if horizontal and vertical resolutions are different (for example lores + vertical doubling)


WinUAE 4.9.0 (06.12.2021)
=========================

Major update: custom chipset emulation rewrite (biggest reason for far too long release cycle)

Agnus/Alice internal DMA cycle processing and RGA bus pipelining (bitplanes, copper, blitter etc) accurately emulated.
Programmed display mode support greatly improved, for example cycle accurate horizontal blanking (even if it is changed mid-screen), badly documented BEAMCON0 bit combinations accurately emulated, previously unknown undocumented features emulated and more.
Blitter internal logic emulation updates, for example blitter register modifications when blitter is active are now accurately emulated, line mode with B channel enabled undocumented behavior emulated and more.
Chipset edge-cases and chipset version specific undocumented behavior emulation improved, for example Copper waiting for Blitter chipset bug is accurately emulated (which causes visible glitches and was not emulated previously), borderblank glitch if horizontal window is opened early.
Display emulation is now from hsync to hsync (not scanline to scanline) which enables accurate emulation of left (programmed modes or blanking modified) and right border (normally visible, position where horizontal position wraps around) edge cases without extra hacks, both bitplanes and sprites. Vertical is also from vsync to vsync, for example last visible line of display can be line 0 (or even larger if special programmed mode) which wasn’t fully emulated previously. Multiple DIWSTRT/STOP regions in single scanline supported, including start/stop horizontal wrap around.
Bitplane DMA overrun condition is not a special case anymore, all overrun conditions are now fully supported, including bitplane wrap around. Overrun can be used to create special modes that are still fully PAL (or NTSC) compatible without usual restrictions (for example it is possible to have full overscan, horizontal scrolling in 64-bit fetch mode and still have most sprites available)
Overscan+ and Extreme display size options. Can see everything in emulation that real chipset can output in PAL/NTSC compatible modes with adjusted blanking timing when using converters like OSSC. Also OCS Denise blanking bug on first and last line is now emulated and visible.
Audio internal timing is now accurate, for example low audio period (lower than DMA can support) interrupt and sample reload timing is now cycle-accurate.
New emulated hardware

CyberVision 64, CyberVision 64/3D and S3 Virge PCI emulation. (S3Trio and S3Virge chipset emulation from PCem)

Updates

JIT update (Aranym) + shift instruction flag fix.
x86 bridgeboard emulation updated to PCem v17 x86 core.
Recent Picasso96 multimonitor support: usegfx Picasso96 DISPLAYCHAIN is now only forced if uaegfx monitor is monitor id=0 (shared with native chipset). Previously DISPLAYCHAIN was always forced.
ALT+Space does not anymore open WinUAE window standard menu when input is captured.
Saving config file: Confirm overwrite if existing file is read-only.
Do not allow opposite joystick directions at the same time (some games crash..) if mapped using Game Ports panel. It is still allowed if configured using Input panel and it was mapped to left/right/up/down events (not horiz/vert).
Debugger updates. Configurable disassembly format, DMA debugger DDFSTRT, DDFSTOP, horizontal window, vertical window, blanking markers, full 32-bit/64-bit bitplane/sprite pointer addresses, cycle conflict info, fi command accepts assembly syntax (for example “fi trap #0”).

New features

FloppyBridge support.
Picasso96 v3.0+ uaegfx screen dragging and dual palette support.
uaeserial.device CMD_WRITE with io_Length=-1, EOFMODE and Mark and Space parity support implemented.
bsdsocket.library SBTC_GET_BYTES_RECEIVED, SBTC_GET_BYTES_SENT, SIOCIFADDR, SIOCIFFLAGS, SIOCIFBRDADDR, SIOCIFCONF, SIOCIFNETMASK, SIOCIFMETRIC and SIOCIFMTU support added.
All Z2 DMA HD controllers are now 24-bit addressing capable by default (real world capability), checkbox option added to enable full 32-bit capability (emulation only).
Added CD image select/eject keyboard shortcut. END+F5 = select CD image, END+SHIFT+F5 = eject CD. Statefile quick restore moved to END+F6
Executable as a disk image mounting now supports FFS and HD disks. Uses DD+OFS if selected file fits (like previously), then DD+FFS, finally HD+FFS (if drive is HD).
Amiga Bootblock Reader brainfile support (copy ABR package xml files to \plugins\ABR). Used when clicking “?” button in quickstart and disk panels.
Multi monitor mode window positions are now stored to registry/ini.
Experimental HDR mode. Supports brightness and contrast adjustment without immediate white clipping or black crush.

Bugs fixed

Fixed HAM left border corruption if overscan HAM mode and bitplane horizontal start was earlier than current filter horizontal start.
CDTV and CD32 CD audio playback statefile restore bugs fixed.
A2410 emulation fixed.
NPCap/WinPCap crash if more than 9 network devices was found.
Fixed GDI handle leak. GUI panel change leaked 2 font handles.
Floppy emulation rotation speed was slightly out of spec.
bsdsocket recv/recvfrom() returning truncated data now matches Unix/Amiga behavior. Windows also returned error when data was truncated.
OSD led font graphics is now generated from real Windows font and is high DPI aware.
If game controller was plugged in after config was loaded and loaded config had game controller configured in game ports panel, game controller was correctly remembered but type and autofire mode was set to default values.
68040/68060 unimplemented FPU instruction emulation fixes, all 68060 FPSP test package tests pass now.
Softfloat FMOD, FREM update. FSINCOS implemented, calculates both SIN and COS simultaneously, previously FSINCOS calculated SIN and COS separately.
Add harddrive button tried to incorrectly guess logical geometry and didn’t enable full drive mode if drive didn’t already have RDB. Result was unusable drive.
CDFS mounting used wrong character set translation functions, files with region specific characters failed to open depending on Windows regional settings.
“Remove interlace artifacts” last line flickering workaround fix.
Fixed empty formatted standard HD ADF creation.
Many minor bugs fixed.

To do before 5.0. (Early 2022 – Summer 2022)

68000 interrupt sampling timing needs to be 100% accurate (My cputester + extra tester hardware should solve this). This is the last remaining non-100% accurate part of A500 emulation.
Detect programmed modes that real world display can’t support. Blank emulated display when detected.
4.9 bug fixes.
Possible optimizations.
Replace PCem with 86Box?


WinUAE 4.4.0 (01.07.2020)
=========================

New features/improvements:

- 68000 address and bus error (bus errors are not used in Amiga) stack frames are now 100% accurate, including all undefined behavior like partially updated flags or registers. Last missing part that wasn't fully accurate previously.

- "Default" filter mode now enables aspect ratio correction and scales to window/screen size only when display size is too large or too small.
- Ignore ncap/winpcap dll version because recent ncap versions have smaller version number than old winpcap versions.
- GUI Reset button now copies current full GUI config to active config, including options that normally can't be changed on the fly.
- FPU default is back to 64-bit. Very few programs require 80-bit accuracy, it wasn't worth the speed loss.
- Black borders are not anymore enabled in autoscale center mode.
- Few custom chipset and CIA emulation updates.
- Added easy to use and transparent printf()-like debug logging method for developers.

Bugs fixed:

- If disk read DMA was started without any selected drive(s), it was always emulated in turbo mode.

- GUI high DPI support rewritten.
- Lagless vsync stability improvements.
- Added Trojan light gun preset to Game ports panel.
- On the fly chipset model switching compatibility improved.

- Host directory/archive drag and drop to WinUAE window now supports mounting multiple items simultaneously.
- Debugger disassembler fixes and few very rarely used instructions dissemble now correctly.

Bugs fixed:

- Disk index pulses were not being generated when disk was being written (Cadaver v0.1 save disk writing)
- CDTV audio CD playing state restore fixed.
- A2024 monitor didn't show full viewable area.

Other changes:

- Added separate 68000-68060 CPU tester/validator project based on UAE CPU core generator.
- Removed all 68020 cycle-exact CPU mode internal idle cycles. It mainly slowed down the CPU too much and didn't match real world well enough.

New emulated hardware:

- Archos Overdrive HD (PCMCIA IDE adapter)
- ICD Trifecta (A500 IDE/SCSI controller)
- M-Tec Mastercard (SCSI expansion for M-Tec T1230 A1200 accelerator)
- Scala MM dongles

- If Wait for Blitter is enabled and blit size makes no sense, don't wait. Fixes long delay in Vital / Mystic.
- Added "CIA 391078-01" advanced chipset checkbox. This CIA revision has a bug in IO port output mode, reading output mode port will always read output mode data state. Other models, including original DIP 8520, 391078-02 and Akiko internal CIAs read IO pin external voltage level as documented. This can affect "bad" mouse left button/joystick fire button reading code (not working or stuck button). Used in A600. A1200/A4000 can have -01 or -02 revision.
- Added ATAPI Tape drive emulation.

Bugs fixed:

- It was not possible to override Z2 RAM board autoconfig data if board had built-in manufacturer/product ID defaults.
- It was not possible to change existing path with Select Directory/Select Archive or Plain File buttons.
- Fixed 64-bit version random crashes that usually happened with some shell extensions.
- Z3 RAM in manual mode was completely broken.
- UAE directory harddrive/hardfile KS 1.2 autoboot hack didn't work without extra reset if UAE autoconfig board wasn't first board in autoconfig chain.
- 68030 data cache emulation corrupted data if write was cached, write size was word or long and address was odd.
- 68040/060 without FPU: many FPU instruction F-line exceptions generated incorrect stack frames.
- ECS Denise BPLCON2 ECS-only bits (for example KILLEHB) were masked unless AGA was also selected.
- Obsolete IDE FORMAT TRACK command fixed.
- GamePorts panel custom mapping incorrectly parsed joystick autofire state from config file.
- Directory filesystem ACTION_SET_DATE failed to change date stamp if file was read-only.
- 68020 memory cycle exact CPU speed slider is again partially working, CPU speed can be reduced but not increased.
- GamePorts panel custom mapping incorrectly parsed joystick autofire state from config file.
- uae-configuration joystick port (joyportx) modification only queued but didn't apply changes.
- uaeserial.device crash fixed. DTR/RTS state now match serial.device behavior when device is opened.
- Fixed uaegfx VRAM size check, some modes that almost filled whole VRAM didn't appear in resolution list.
- uaenet.device didn't close low level ethernet handles when Amiga was reset, causing duplicate packets.
- Bitplane overrun condition triggered incorrectly in rare situation where bitplane DMA is enabled after DDFSTOP on OCS
- Tape drive emulation fixes. Fixes Amix install error if last file on tape was selected for install.

AVI recording bug fixes and updates:

- First avioutput recorded frame was sometimes partially corrupted.
- When saving state with avioutput active: last frame before state save was not recorded.
- Number of avioutput frames buffered (waiting for compression thread processing) counter was reset periodically which caused lost frames (and leaked memory) in recorded video if CPU was not fast enough.
- Delay initialization until first display frame or sound buffer recording request comes, previously "before filtering" option may have used wrong display size in some situations.
- Uncompressed video selection is not forgotten anymore.
- First frame was not rendered (and also not recorded) if statefile was restored when emulation was already running.
- If emulator state was changed (debugger breakpoint, statefile save etc..), last frame before state change was not recorded.
- File splitting (2G limit) incorrectly flushed sound buffers causing random sound glitches.
- Added -max_avi_size <bytes> -command line parameter to set split size.
- If recording was started and GUI was never opened in same session, sound recording rate become 44100Hz, causing AV syncronization issues if real rate was not same.

______________________________________________________________________________


Catweasel support
-----------------

- Windows driver installed: automatically detected
- No Windows driver installed and TVicPort
  - Windows 2000/XP/Vista: automatically detected

How to use hdtoolbox with full harddisk images
----------------------------------------------

Create hardfile normally or use harddisk image from your real Amiga but clear all
hardfile parameters except block size.(sectors, surfaces and reserved)

HDToolBox must be run with "uaehf.device"-parameter ("tools/hdtoolbox uaehf.device")

Amiga formatted harddisk support
--------------------------------

Requires Windows 2000 or newer with administrator privileges.

All Amiga formatted or empty drives (=zeroed partition table) are autodetected.
WinUAE does not care about interface type, drive can IDE or SCSI or even
memory card if Windows detects the drive in device manager.

Use uaehf.device to access the drive in HDToolBox.
Note that some versions of HDToolBox don't see drives with unit number > 6.
Remove some mounted harddrives (directory or hardware) to fix the problem.

WARNING: you can force all drives to be detected if you run WinUAE with
-disableharddrivesafetycheck command line parameter but be very careful.
Don't try to select and partition/format your Windows drive(s)!

NOTE: uaescsi.device or ASPI don't have anything to do with harddisk support.

Vsync-instructions
------------------
- works in fullscreen modes only
- select 50Hz or 100Hz refresh rate (PAL) or 60Hz/120Hz (NTSC)
- WinUAE skips every other frame if refresh rate is over 85Hz
- display driver must support refresh rate selection. VSync is not selectable
  if only available option in refresh rate selection box is "default"
- you can also select other refresh rates for "interesting" results :)
- your pc must be fast because missed frames will cause huge slowdown
- display emulation refresh rate must be set to "every frame"

CD32 emulation instructions:
----------------------------

Emulated:

- CDROM except CD audio fast forward and rewind (1) (2)
- 1Kb NVRAM (works just like console emulators' memory card)
- C2P
- Joypad (keys: /=RWD *=PLAY -=FFW 7=Green 9=Yellow 1=Red 3=Blue)
  You can use input-tab to configure pad mappings.

Notes:

- CD32 configuration: 68EC020, AGA, 2MB chip, 0 floppy drives
- CD32's NVRAM (build-in 1024 byte flash RAM) file location can be specified in ROM-tab.
- CD32 ROMs come with Amiga Forever 5.0+ or you can dump then from floppy drive extended CD32.
  Don't ask me for ROMs!
- If you have CD32 CD images, you can use daemon tools (http://www.daemon-tools.cc/) to mount them.
- Make sure harddrives panel is empty and uaescsi.device is disabled!

uaescsi.device instructions
---------------------------

- Makes your IDE ATAPI/SCSI CDROM drives available on Amiga side (1)
  Use Amiga CDFS, CDA players or CD burning software etc..
  (not tested with real SCSI drives)

1:
- requires working ASPI drivers or admin privileges (SPTI)
- no configuration option for drive selection yet.
2:
- no drive selection configuration yet, just insert disc in any drive and start WinUAE.


Action Replay 1 / 2 / 3 instructions
--------------------------------

- You need AR 1, AR 2 or 3 ROM (see below for rip instructions)
- Set path to Action Replay ROM file (ROM-tab, cartridge ROM)
- Freeze button = Page Up
- Don't use AR support to save game states, use build-in state save option instead.
  (much faster and compatible)
- WARNING: Action Replay don't like fast Amigas or 68020+ CPUs
  and max supported fast ram is 4MB.

Action Replay ROM Ripping instructions:

 Find A500 with Action replay-cardridge,
 press 'freeze'-button, write following:

 AR 1:

 lord olaf<RETURN>

 AR 2 and 3:

 may<RETURN>
 the<RETURN>
 force<RETURN>
 be<RETURN>
 with<RETURN>
 you<RETURN>
 new<RETURN> (AR 3 only)
 
 insert empty floppy disk into DF0:

 AR1: "sm ar1.rom,f00000 f10000"
 AR2: "sm ar2.rom,400000 420000"
 AR3: "sm ar3.rom,400000 440000"
 transfer ROM image to your PC


Improved debugger
-----------------

 - f-command extended:
    f without parameters = break when PC not in ROM and current instruction is not
    0x4ef9 (don't break when executing library jump tables) Great for finding start
    address of bootblock.
    f i = break when PC points to RTS/RTR/RTE-instruction
    f i <opcode> = break when PC points to instruction opcode <opcode>
    f <addr> = add/remove new breakpoint (max 8)
    fd = remove all breakpoints
    f <addr1> <addr2> = break when <addr1> <= PC <= <addr2>
 - W-command's value-parameter can be decimal 12345 or hexadecimal (0x12345 or $12345)
    write size is byte if val < 256, word if 255 > val < 65536 and long if val > 65535.
    (previous version's write size was always long and was limited to chip ram)
 - memwatch break points added, w <0-7> <address> <length> <r/w/rw> [<value>]
    break when address space between address and address + length is accessed and
    if accessed value = <value> R = break only on reads, W = writes, RW = both
 - i-command: interrups and traps combined, VBR supported
 - custom register dump -command added (e), dumps the contents of all existing registers
   between 0xdff000-0xdf1ff. ea = dump AGA color register contents.
 - CIA dump-output slightly modified, added TOD stopped status-flag and more.
 - exiting debugger automatically creates "memory state" and b-command can be used
   to "rewind"
 - bl lists all stored "state recorder" states
 - search-command s <"string">/<hexvalues> [<addr]> [<length>]
 - trace (t <cnt>) can be used to step over more than one instruction
 - wd = enable illegal access logger (all read or write accesses to nonexisting memory,
   read access to write-only memory or vice versa, accesses to "unofficial" cia and custom
   register address space etc..)
 - wd x y = disable logging between addresses x to x + y
 - H = list last 50 PC addresses (HH = addresses + flags). Only available if any breakpoint
   is enabled.

Drive sound customization
-------------------------

You can use external samples if you put files called drive_click_xxx.wav,
drive_spin_xxx.wav, drive_startup_xxx.wav and drive_snatch_xxx.wav
(xxx = whatever you want, "click" is the only mandatory sample)
to directory called <winuae path>\uae_data\

Multimouse
----------

Windows 2000: no real multimouse support.
Windows XP/Vista/7: all mice are supported.

Open Input-tab. Select any manual configuration (Configuration #1 to #4)
Open device select box. You should see "Mouse *", "Windows mouse" and
2 or more "Raw Mouse" (XP-only, Vista/7 name can be also "HID compliant
mouse). Make sure "Mouse *" and "Windows mouse" are disabled, (select box
next to device select box is unchecked) enable other mice and make sure
mappings are correct.

New in 0.9.90: Multimouse can be configured in "Game & I/O-Ports"-panel,
there is no need to do complex Input-panel configuration anymore.

Windows mouse?
--------------

"Windows mouse" is mouse that gets all movement events from Windows'
desktop mouse instead of DirectInput. Enable "Windows mouse" if you
think mouse feels sluggish compared to older WinUAE before DirectInput
was implemented. (and don't forget to disable "Mouse *" first or
mouse movement will be quite erratic..) Can't be used in multimouse
configuration.

Mousehack mouse?
--------------

Needed when using Tablets. Tablets only work properly if you select
"Mousehack mouse" and run Amiga-side program "mousehack". Without
mousehack "Mousehack mouse" is equal to "Windows mouse".
(mousehack-program is needed because regular mouse sends relative
movement data but Tablets are absolute devices)

WinUAE 1.3 update: mousehack-program is now built-in.

Mouse *?
--------

"Mouse *" is DirectInput system default mouse. "Mouse *" gets all
combined events from all connected physical mice. Can't be used
in multimouse configuration.


New ROM config entries in 1.1:
------------------------------

Syntax:
 kickstart_rom=v<ver>[.<rev>] [r<subver>.<subrev>] [<model>]
Only <ver> is mandatory. Model must be specified if requested
ROM file is not a regular Kickstart ROM.
Examples:
 v1.3 (select any autodetected 1.3)
 v1.2 r33.166 (must be KS1.2 revision 33.166)
 v1.2 A500 (KS1.2 rev 33.180)
 v2.05 A600HD (KS 2.05, rev 37.350 or 37.300)
 v3.1 r40.68 A1200 (KS 3.1 rev 40.68 A1200)
 v3.1 r40.68 (KS 3.1 rev 40.68, both A1200 or A4000 version allowed)
 v3.1;v3.0 (any revision of KS 3.1 or 3.0)
 v3 A1200 (A1200 KS 3.1 or 3.0)
 v2 AR (any Action Replay v2)
Multiple matches: highest available version is selected
Extended ROM config item: kickstart_ext_rom=
Cartridge ROM config item: cart=
Arcadia ROMs:
cart=Arcadia <name>, for example cart=Arcadia Xenon

           ERROR_DIRECTORY_NOT_EMPTY. (Bernd Roesch)
- FIXED:   Renaming a directory which was opened then closed will no longer
           crash. (Bernd Roesch)
- FIXED:   Increased the range of addresses checked for memory-mapping, in
           order to make JIT "direct" mode work on more systems. (Bernd
           Roesch)
- FIXED:   Selecting a Picasso96 8-bit mode in windowed-mode would complain
           about not matching your desktop's depth, and switch to full-screen.
- FIXED:   CD-ROM Mounting should work again.
- FIXED:   Installer won't install when WinUAE is already running.
- FIXED:   Right-click and "Editting" a .UAE config-file will now result in
           the correct config-name and config-description in the GUI.
- FIXED:   MIDI-Out won't crash external MIDI drivers like "hubies loopback".
           (Bernd Roesch)
- ADDED:   Jose's modifications to the sound routines and GUI. (Jose Gil)
           NOTE: Read doc called "SoundSyncro Readme.rtf"
- ADDED:   AHI driver support. (Bernd Roesch)

- FIXED:   Remove hard dependency on RegisterDeviceNotification API so that
           WinUAE still works on Win95.
- FIXED:   Event timing works better now, and shouldn't hang any demos or
           games. (Bernd Schmidt)
- FIXED:   Max out at 512-Megs of ZorroIII RAM, since 1-Gig won't work.
- FIXED:   Merged in some CIA-related save-state changes. (Bernd Schmidt)
- FIXED:   Banshee AGA and Lemmings3 AGA are now mostly working, thanks to
           new delay-offset code.  See the "KNOWN BUGS" section above for
           further details. (Toni Wilen)
- FIXED:   Sound-syncro settings can be changed on-the-fly. (Jose Gil)
- ADDED:   New version of "uaediskchange" utility.  Put this inside your
           "Amiga" installation, and call it in your startup-sequence like
           "run >nil: c:uaediskchange cd0:" to watch cd0: for disk-changes.
           You can watch more than one drive. (Bernd Roesch)
- CHANGED: Tweaked the sound-syncro code again. (Jose Gil)
- CHANGED: Creating an AmigaDOS .adf file from the GUI will now create a
           formatted disk. (Toni Wilen)

______________________________________________________________________________
WinUAE 0.8.17 Release 1
==============================================================================
- FIXED:   Various AGA and chipset-related fixes. (Bernd#1, Toni Wilen)
- FIXED:   .GZ support in floppy dialog doesn't cause corruption. (Timothy)
- FIXED:   Updated sprite-collision logic which fixes Leander, Archon 1 and 2,
           Menace, etc. (Toni)
- FIXED:   Updated disk-emulation code, for higher compatability.  Also now
           supports .fdi and high-density .adf images. (Toni, Adil Temel)
- FIXED:   60Hz support in Dynablaster and BC Kid (Toni Wilen)
- FIXED:   BSD-Socket emulation is mostly working, although bugs still exist.
           (Bernd#3)
- FIXED:   Picasso96 screens smaller than their display-mode would have crap
           in their left-hand-border if you grabbed the screen's title-bar and
           moved the screen to the right.
- FIXED:   Updated copy of rtg.library, including more patches. (Bernd#3)
- FIXED:   You can set the WinUAE resolution in full-screen to whatever you
           desire.  Especially useful so that you set your full-screen size to
           match your desktop size, and it will prevent all your desktop icons
           from moving around after exitting WinUAE. (me, Georg)
- FIXED:   Stupid sound_channels=0 stuff in config-files works properly.
- FIXED:   Stupid gfx_center_xxx=yes/no stuff in config-files works properly.
- FIXED:   Selecting an item in the Hard Drives page of the GUI and then
           moving its position in the list now leaves the item highlighted.
- FIXED:   Detect OS version early, and inform the user appropriately instead
           of crashing.  Windows NT is no longer a supported OS for WinUAE.
- FIXED:   Various little off-by-one pixel errors in the GUI.
- FIXED:   MIDI in/out lists in the Ports page of GUI were behaving strangely.
- FIXED:   Floppy-disc emulation change to allow Shadow of the Beast Trainer
           to work. (Toni Wilen)
- FIXED:   Small change in MIDI support so that closing MIDI and then
           reopening it will work properly. (Bernd Roesch)
- FIXED:   Call ahi_install in main.c.  No Amiga-side AHI driver yet.
- FIXED:   MIDI-input doesn't have the concept of a "default device", unlike
           MIDI-output.  Changed the GUI and programming accordingly.
- FIXED:   MIDI-output now does the right things with the serial-port after
           each written byte, which allows some other programs to finally
           work (MusicX, Deluxe Music, etc.)
- ADDED:   New hook function in uaelib for checking on removable drive state.
- ADDED:   Disk-change status is now tracked via WM_DEVICECHANGE notifications
           which allows "run >nil: uaediskchange cd0:" in the startup-sequence
           to work properly.  Eject a CD-ROM, and the Amiga knows about it.
           Insert a new CD-ROM, and the Amiga knows about it.  Woo-hoo!
           NOTE: Probably really buggy.
- ADDED:   New collision-modes, fast-copper mode (not save-able with config).
- ADDED:   State-save support. (Toni Wilen)
- ADDED:   Option in Sound page of GUI to enable/disable synchronized sound.
- ADDED:   Printing of DDCAPS info for display-driver, to help diagnostics.
- ADDED:   FDI disk-image support (Toni Wilen)
- CHANGED: Tweaked the sound-code yet again, hopefully will get less out of
           sync.  (Jose Gil, myself)
- CHANGED: Add PC Drives no longer adds the floppy-drives.  If you want access
           to A:, then you'll have to add it manually in the GUI.
- CHANGED: Added ability to allocate larger amount of ZorroIII memory. 
           (Bernd#3)
- CHANGED: Added ability to allocate larger amount of RTG (Picasso96) memory.
           (Bernd#3)
- CHANGED: Removed Vertical Blank Synchronization (VSync) support in Flip
           calls.  This should increase synchronization and performance in
           full-screen mode, but may introduce some tearing/artifacting.
- CHANGED: Use the system "hand" cursor when pointing at web-links in the
           About page (if available). (Oscar Sillani)
- CHANGED: Use Tahoma font in About page of GUI.
- CHANGED: Use up/down icons in the HardDisk page of GUI. (Oscar Sillani)

==============================================================================
- FIXED: GUI DLL loader is no longer fixated on Deutsch.
- FIXED: Selecting 68000 CPU from a JIT config doesn't result in error message.
- ADDED: Sprite-collisions can be enabled/disabled during emulation, not just
         at startup.
- ADDED: Patched rtg.library added to package, which should fix the mouse trails.
         (Thanks to Tobias Abt and Alexander Kneer of P96, and Bernd Roesch).
		 This file (rtg.library) will end up in the "Amiga Programs/" directory
		 under the "WinUAE/" directory where you install to.
- ADDED: German keymap (UAE_German)
- ADDED: uaediskchange utility
- ADDED: French and German DLLs updated, Italian DLL added.  (Thanks Georg V,
         FagEmul, and Daniele G)
- CHANGED: Tweaked the sound code again, memory-leak should be gone, performance
           should be better - expect a speed decrease when using JIT and sound.
- CHANGED: Graphics glitches caused by NOVSYNC flipping should be gone in full-
           screen mode.
- REMOVED: Turkish DLL, as it was out-of-date
______________________________________________________________________________
WinUAE 0.8.16 Release 2
==============================================================================
- FIXED: Stupid shift-key issue (me)
- FIXED: Should be back to 50Hz at A500 speed emulation, so audio latency should
         be reduced or non-existant. (me)
- FIXED: Graphics-updates may work now on Voodoo cards (Toni, me)
- FIXED: Updated file-version info in WinUAE.exe resource. (Georg)
- FIXED: Bug with version-number checking and GUI DLLs (Georg)
______________________________________________________________________________
WinUAE 0.8.16 Release 1
==============================================================================
- FIXED: Better 040 compatibility (Toni, Bernd#3, Gwenole)

- FIXED: Printing from within FinalWriter (Bernd#3)
- FIXED: Graphics printing should work now. (Bernd#3)
- FIXED: Translated GUI libraries are only loaded if their version number is
         0.8.16.1 now, so that the GUI is consistent across languages for a
         given WinUAE version.
- FIXED: Horizontal/vertical lines are 2x faster in Picasso96 (Bernd#3)
- FIXED: Floppy disk emulation tweaks (Toni Wilen)
- FIXED: Auto-activation of WinUAE window is smarter now.
- FIXED: Bug with flipping surfaces in DirectDraw.  If the flipping-pair was
         not properly created (say the primary was in video-ram, but the
         secondary was in system-ram) and cannot be flipped, we tried to
         flip anyways.  This would fill up the log with flip-failure reports.
- FIXED: Infinite loops when GetBytesPerPixel fails.  Still looking into why
         GetBytesPerPixel fails in some weird circumstances.
- FIXED: "more compatible" string in CPU page of GUI is no longer too long.
- FIXED: Mouse-pointer reappears when message-boxes pop up.
- FIXED: Mouse-button state isn't kept across screen-mode changes (Bernd#3)
- FIXED: Clear the write-protect bit when copying files from read-only media.
         This fixes the icon overwrite problem when installing OS 3.5 and 3.9.
         (Bernd#3)
- FIXED: Added a hack for volume-names of "AmigaOS3.5" and "AmigaOS3.9" to be
         used even though Windows shows "AmigaOS35" and "AmigaOS39". (Bernd#3)
- FIXED: Make sure that the Windows mouse-pointer is not active on an Amiga
         screen-mode switch. (Bernd#3)
- FIXED: Fixed timing problems on SpeedStep mobile processors, due to their
         strange RDTSC implementation being variable.  Instead, use the OS
         provided QueryPerformanceCounter(), which actually works but
         has much lower resolution.
- FIXED: Framerate reporting. (Toni)
- FIXED: Maximum number of Picasso96 screen-modes is increased.
- FIXED: Screen refresh bug when minimizing/maximizing full-screen Amiga gfx.
- FIXED: Now use gzip.dll for .adz/.roz handling.
- FIXED: Floppy disks can be written/formatted again.

- FIXED: Bogus printer loading when printer is "none" in GUI.
- FIXED: Incorrect block-size reporting for HardDiskFiles (.hdf) in GUI
- FIXED: Keyboard stickiness during screen-switches, and/or F12 GUI. (Bernd#3)
- ADDED: JIT support for massive speed increase (Bernd#2)
- ADDED: "mixed stereo" setting in the Sound page of the GUI.
- ADDED: "CTRL-F11 to quit" setting in Misc page of the GUI.  ALT-F4 can then

- ADDED: Virtual screens in Picasso96 (Bernd Roesch)
- ADDED: MIDI-In support (Bernd Roesch)
- CHANGED: Slightly different compile flags, resulting code may be faster (?)
- CHANGED: Moved the Immediate Blit option from Misc to Display page of GUI
- CHANGED: Use some of WinFellow's fsdb code in WinUAE.
- CHANGED: Picasso96 rendering/display engine (Larry, Curly, me)

- REMOVED: 24-bit display-mode support.
- REMOVED: Enforcer-logging option in Misc page of GUI
- REMOVED: DirectDraw6 option in Misc page of GUI (now the default)
- REMOVED: NT4 support.
______________________________________________________________________________
WinUAE 0.8.14 Release 3
==============================================================================
- FIXED: Stupid frames-per-second bug whenever the GUI has been displayed.
- FIXED: Graphics garbage at bottom of Amiga screens whenever the GUI is
         displayed and moved around (in windowed-mode).
- FIXED: Enabling "Show LEDs in full-screen" once running didn't actually work.
- FIXED: Speed of emulation is no longer "crazy" when sound is disabled.
- FIXED: Crashing with certain .uae config-files, including default.uae.
- FIXED: Minimizing WinUAE and then restoring it wasn't restoring sound.
- FIXED: Screen refresh bug when minimizing/maximizing full-screen Amiga gfx.
- FIXED: Now use gzip.dll (included) for .adz/.roz handling.
- ADDED: Can now adjust sound preferences while the emulation is running.
- ADDED: Turkish GUI DLL to installer
- CHANGED: Printing support in the GUI is now based on a printer-name, not a
           physical printer-port.  You MUST have a printer-driver on the Amiga
           side that matches your actual printer.
- REMOVED: Ability to adjust the floppy-disk speed.  This "feature" doesn't
           exist in the core UAE version, and can also cause incompatabilities.
______________________________________________________________________________
WinUAE 0.8.14 Release 3 (the Stupid release)
==============================================================================
- FIXED: Stupid bug with GUI (F12) when in full-screen mode.
- FIXED: Stupid Picasso96 slow-down in Release 2

- FIXED: Sound-buffer slider gets disabled when no audio output is selected.
- FIXED: German GUI DLL is accurate now. (Thanks Georg)
- ADDED: Flicker-free Amiga screen updates when full-screen.  Doesn't affect
         Picasso96 screens, though.
- CHANGED: Sound output tweaked again, should be "slightly" better.
______________________________________________________________________________
WinUAE 0.8.14 Release 1
==============================================================================
- FIXED: When WinUAE is full-screen, the Message dialog-box no longer "hides"
         and locks up WinUAE.  Instead, WinUAE will automatically minimize
         itself and display the dialog-box on the Windows Desktop.
- FIXED: log-file no longer fills up with blit failure reports.
- FIXED: Some resources (critical-sections, threads) weren't being cleaned-up.

- ADDED: "Back To The Roots" link in About page of GUI. (Bobic)
- CHANGED: All audio goes through WaveOut octal-buffering now.
- CHANGED: Hard-disk to local filesystem translation-layer.  MAY BE BUGGY NOW!
- CHANGED: Native CD-ROM drives are mounted as CDx: instead of DHx:
- CHANGED: Frames-per-second are only displayed in Amiga screen-modes now.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

For general information about the core UAE platform, refer to:

http://www.freiburg.linux.de/~uae/

This readme file does _not_ cover the features of UAE that are common to
all versions. If you're not familiar with UAE yet, consulting the generic
distribution before attempting to use this port might actually not be a
bad idea.

The generic UAE documentation can be found in the docs directory of this
archive. Take these docs with a grain of salt, though: Not every detail of the
Linux documentation pertains to WinUAE, and vice versa.

The latest release of UAE for Win32 is available from:
http://www.winuae.net/

Also, excellent English *and* German help-files in Compiled HTML Manual (.chm)
format can be found at http://www.winuae.net/download.htm.  Many thanks
to Georg Viechtlbauer for his help with this!

If you are using Windows 95 (shame on you!) and don't have DirectX
installed yet, you need to grab and install a copy first. UAE works
with older versions of DirectX, so chances are that you won't have
any problems if you had installed a DirectX game on your machine at
least once.

There are no problems running WinUAE under Windows 2000 and XP - in fact,
Win2K or XP is the best platform to run WinUAE on - providing the best
graphics and network performance, as well as core emulation duties.

Windows NT 4.0 is not supported

| BUG REPORTS VIA EMAIL: Please make sure that the following conditions are
| met before you report any kind of problem:
|
| (1) You are using the latest version of WinUAE
| (2) You have read the documentation (90% of all potential questions are
|     answered thoroughly in the this readme file)
| (3) You have used your brain
| (4) The graphics drivers of your systems are up-to-date 
|
| If you do write me, _always_ state what version of UAE your feedback is
| pertaining to. Include all the necessary information, e.g. the command
| line options you are using.
|
| Do _not_ send me warez of any kind, no matter how non-working they are.
| Do _NOT_ ask me for ROM-files, warez, etc.

1. Command Line Parameters
==========================
UAE's command line options are now quite hidden, since we're a true
Windows application now (and not a console-application).

The most important one is:
  -config=configfile.uae
or this will also work:
  -f configfile.uae

which will cause WinUAE to load the saved config-file (which is just
ASCII format anyways).

2. File-System Specifics
========================
UAE will try its best to bridge the gap between Microsoft and Tripos file
system semantics, but there are some inherent limitations:

1. The Windows "read only" flag controls the w and d bits on the Amiga side
2. r and e are always set
3. h, s and p cannot be set
4. The a flag is preserved
5. File comments are not supported
6. Not all file names that are "forbidden" under the lame Windows fs are
   being handled correctly yet. The most common ones, however, are.

Beware: UAE does _not_ live in a chroot-like environment! There is no
checking for accesses to directories above the mount point. Do not
assume that your data is absolutely safe from rogue Amiga programs!

3. Keyboard Emulation
=====================
Most of your keyboard retains its regular functionality under UAE, but
there are a few notable exceptions:

- if you don't have a Win95 keyboard, you'll have to use Ins/Home as a
  replacement for Left Amiga/Right Amiga (this is different from other
  versions of UAE).
- HELP has been remapped to Page-Down
- F12 brings up the GUI
- Shift+F12 brings up the GUI-based debugger
- Scroll Lock toggles screen refresh, speeding up the emulation
- Pause toggles sound, speeding up the emulation (note that you can't
  enable sound this way if you haven't configured UAE to run with sound
  from the beginning).
- End+F1, F2, F3 or F4 allows you to change disks in one of the four
  Amiga disk drives. Shift+End+F1...F4 ejects the disk.

The keyboard replacements for an Amiga joystick are as follows:

                 a              b            c
Up            Keypad 8      Cursor Up        T
Down          Keypad 2     Cursor Down       B
Left          Keypad 4     Cursor Left       F
Right         Keypad 6     Cursor Right      H
Fire          Keypad 0      Right Ctrl    Left Alt

WinUAE supports gzip-compressed disk images if you have zlib.dll.

Windows 2000/XP users: Using the compression feature of NTFS instead
of gzip is a good idea if you wish to save space and be able to write
to the ADF files at the same time.

3. Performance Issues
=====================
On a sufficiently powerful PC, UAE will give you quite an authentic
flashback into a (better?) past.

Thanks to DirectX, the raw drawing throughput of this version will be
among the highest of all Intel ports. 800x600 is only about 20% slower
than 320x200 on my Pentium 100, although it requires more than seven
times as many bytes per second to be pumped across the PCI bus. UAE's
native display depth is 16 bpp. This table shows how the net drawing
speed is affected by your display type:

16 bpp full screen - 100%
16 bpp desktop     -  98% 
24 bpp desktop     -  72%
32 bpp desktop     -  60%

Sound is a luxury. Because sound output is strictly synchronized with
video DMA, you _won't_ get clean sound _unless_ your machine is capable
of running at 50 fps at least internally.

Rule of thumb: Get a PPro or Pentium II if you want full graphics and
full sound at the same time (reportedly, the Pentium MMX 200 MHz,
overclocked to 250 MHz [83.3 MHz bus speed], is a powerful platform
for running UAE. I have no definite reports about the K6 and the M2 yet,
but these should do pretty good as well.).

On a Pentium 100 equipped with a Matrox Millennium, UAE-Win32/DirectX
is slightly faster than the Linux version under AcceleratedX for programs
that perform a _lot_ of screen updates, i.e. action games and demos.
All other things should run at roughly the same speed.

4. Compatibility
================
The number of programs that don't run properly under UAE decreases with
every new release. If you find a piece of software to require special
treatment, please let me know. I have received copies of pirated software
in my email in the past. Never ever do this to me.

Consult compatibility.txt for tips on how to get software running and a
growing collection of user-submitted parameters.

A few broken programs require instruction prefetch and/or exception 3
to be emulated (e.g.  Shadow of the Beast I, Katakis and Denaris). These
can be forced to run by playing with the "compatible-mode" CPU-flag in
the CPU-settings section of the GUI.
