FS-UAE 2.1.0dev Released

Posted on by

A new development version has been released. Changes in FS-UAE 2.1.0dev:

  • Merged updated emulation core from WinUAE 2.5.0beta21.
  • FS-UAE mman updated to work more like the WinUAE implementation.
  • Ejecting CD images works now, enabled menu option.
  • Added auto-fire toggle mechanism to F12 menu.
  • Auto-fire support, new boolean options joystick_port_x_autofire.
  • Added support for Amiga mouse wheel and middle mouse button.
  • (Launcher) Added button to configure auto-fire per joystick port.

This if the first version in the new 2.1.x development series. Some nice and requested features (auto-fire, mouse wheel) are finally supported 🙂 Emulation core is updated from the latest available code from WinUAE / Toni Wilen, bringing with it some nice emulation accuracy improvements!

Because of the code merge, and because the mman module has been rewritten, there is a greater chance than usual that something does not work. -But it looks good in tests. To get a mman behavior which mirrors the WinUAE code more closely, malloc is used to “reserve” memory on non-Windows platforms, and this relies on over-commit features in the Linux/Mac kernels where the memory is not actually allocated before the pages are accessed (not tested on FreeBSD yet). This is a bit experimental, so let me know if it crashes 😉

I am pleased to announce version 2.0.1 of FS-UAE, the multi-platform Amiga emulator for Windows, Linux, Mac OS X and FreeBSD! FS-UAE 2.0 can be downloaded here.

Notable changes since version 1.2 include:

  • No need to edit config files any more! A user-friendly configuration frontend, FS-UAE Launcher, is included.
  • Emulation core updated to WinUAE2.4.2beta1.
  • Many bug fixes and performance improvements.
  • Support OpenGL shaders for post-processing special effects.
  • Added theming infrastructure. Downloadable themes are available.
  • GUI translation for several languages (English, French, German, Italian, Norwegian (BokmĂ„l), Polish, and Serbian).
  • Added keyboard emulation for CD32 gamepad.
  • Support for hard drive images > 4GB.
  • JIT compilation is now available on some platforms.
  • Windows installer is now available, and the Windows version does no longer require any other software packages to be installed.
  • Binaries are created for many more Linux distributions, and download repositories are available.
  • FS-UAE now compiles and runs on Mac OS X 10.5 (both x86 and PPC) and FreeBSD.
  • And many more changes (see the Changelog for details).

Please see the release notes for more information about this release and a detailed list of changes. Also, many thanks to translators, contributors, and everyone who has been testing the development versions and reported bugs and issues!

A list of contributors is available. If you wish to donate to FS-UAE development, I have set up a donation page via PayPal.

Would You Use and/or Contribute to a Game Database?

Posted on by

FS-UAE Launcher Database

FS-UAE Launcher currently supports using a game database to automatically find games you have by scanning your directories for known disk images and/or WHDLoad games, but it is currently a bit difficult for people to contribute to this database -this needs to be much easier!

You should vote here if you would like to see this feature developed further -or if you think this is a waste of time!

Current features include:

  • Scan a list of directories and look for known files
  •  Found games are automatically added to the game list in the launcher.
  • Show cover, title and screenshots for known games.
  • Floppy-based games in ADF and IPF format are supported
  • Files are identified and found by checksum, not name, so you organize your files as you see fit, and don’t need to constantly rename files according to DAT files or similar.
  • WHDLoad games are supported -WHDLoad games can be zipped or unzipped, the launcher can find the individual files on disk (or in archives) and re-assemble the WHDLoad game on launch.
  • Files inside zip archives are also indexes, and are temporarily extracted on demand.

Thousands of game entries have been automatically created by an algorithm looking at (among other sources) the TOSEC dat files to get a starting point. But of course, not all these configurations work out of the box. Special configuration may be needed. So to get a quality database, humans must test and improve the entries.

I propose a system where the launcher automatically synchronizes game entries from a central server, and where anyone can make modifications to game entries in the FS-UAE Launcher GUI, register an account on the server, and have FS-UAE Launcher submit the fixes to the central server so everyone will benefit from the improvements. This includes specifying custom configuration (if needed) and submitting images.

  • The central server will keep history for all changes, so changes can be easily reverted.
  • The list of changes will be used to download incremental updates to the database.
  • It will be possible to have local overrides for specific configuration values and/or images.
  • Images can be downloaded on demand (and cached), so the launcher does not need to download a huge data set to get started.
  • This is mainly a configuration database, and it is not intenteded to compete with Hall Of Light or Lemon Amiga for collecting detailed metadata. A minimal set of metadata (year, publisher, etc) is of course relevant, but for extended information, links til HOL/LemonAmiga will be associated with entries.

The database includes many variations of the same games (for instance multiple cracked versions from the TOSEC set). I propose some kind of voting/rating/like system, so only the most popular variants are showed in the launcher by default if you have many variants available (configurable by the user, of course).

The license for the database should be a quite liberal license (a Creative Commons variant?) to allow other projects to use the information as well. It does not make sense (IMO) to build such a database and then try to limit the usability.

It only makes sense to build infrastructure for this if people are interested in contributing.

You should vote if you would like to see this feature developed (and also perhaps subscribe to the thread if you want to follow the discussion)

Repository Update 2

Posted on by

Repository paths have change a bit, as i wanted to by able to have non-fs-uae-specific repositories for future projects, and better to change this now than later, before more people are affected. Development packages for Ubuntu is now located in:

ppa:fengestad/devel

And repositories managed by OpenSUSE build service is now located here:

http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/FrodeSolheim:/devel/

Sorry for the inconvenience. I don’t plan to change this again (except that stable packages will be published in corresponding stable repositories).

FS-UAE 1.3.29 Released

Posted on by

A new development version has been released. Changes in version 1.3.29:

  • Implemented fs_application_exe_path for Unix-like systems.

Repository Update

Posted on by

The public git repository was recently updated to reflect my own development environment better. Version numbers are now not updated in all places on version number bump, only the VERSION file is updated. Run “make dist” to get a new sub-dir with clean source and version numbers correctly updated in all files, or you can use windows.mk, macosx.mk, debian.mk etc to build releases. Building the workspace with “make” works just fine, but the version number is then fixed as “9.8.7”.

This repo update is also related to the fact that the official releases are from now on automatically built from the repo on google code (branch “release-devel”) using build slaves connected to a jenkins instance.

Please note that the repository URLs on opensuse build service will change (for a proper split between stable / devel releases once 2.0 is out). New repository base for the development releases is: http://download.opensuse.org/reposit…/fs-uae-devel/. Similarly, if some of you track directory content; devel releases on fengestad.no will be put in http://fengestad.no/fs-uae/devel/

I’m also experimenting with PPA builds for Ubuntu: development version PPA is available at https://launchpad.net/~fengestad/+archive/devel (not all amd64 packages are done building yet).

All this just means that I can spent a little less time pushing out releases and more time coding. Also, occasionally forgetting to push the source code or publish update for a given platform should not be a problem any more 😉

Towards FS-UAE 2.0

Posted on by

I am now planning a new stable release. There is too much good stuff in 1.3.x which is not available in 1.2.x – especially the launcher, since this is very useful for casual setup and especially for beginners. The reason I’m thinking of bumping the version number to 2.0 instead of 1.4 is because I feel the inclusion of the launcher represents a great leap in functionality (for those interested).

I’m quite happy with the state of FS-UAE itself for 2.0, but I think the launcher needs some more work and polish before it should be heavily promoted to newcomers to FS-UAE.

I have assembled a list of stuff I think should be done before 2.0 can be released. I would very much like feedback if you know something of else which should be fixed or implemented first.

Any Demand for a FreeBSD Version?

Posted on by

FS-UAE is currently only available for Windows, Mac OS X and Linux. However, it should be relatively easy to get it to compile and run on FreeBSD as well.

If you are a FreeBSD user and want to use and test FS-UAE, please leave a comment! I won’t bother to implement support for FreeBSD unless there is some demand for it.

FS-UAE 1.3.24 Released

Posted on by

A new development version has been released. Changes in version 1.3.24:

  • New option cdrom_drive_count -can be used to specify an empty drive.
  • Empty options are now treated as unspecified options. This can break a couple of configurations since you cannot use e.g. cdrom_drive_0= to specify that you want a CD drive without any CD inserted. Use cdrom_drive_count=1 instead (or floppy_drive_count for floppy drives).
  • Reverted F11 key to zoom setting when used alone (on key depress).

FS-UAE 1.2.1 and 1.3.x

Posted on by

A bugfix release (1.2.1) has been made for the stable series, fixing a crash occuring on some platforms (Mac OS X at least) when saving states with mounted directories.

Meanwhile, development continues on the development branch (1.3.x), see this thread for more information.

Highlights in the development versions are support for OpenGL shaders for fancy effects, translatability and translations (currently German, French, Italian, Polish and Serbian) and experimental JIT support for some platforms.

In other news, information about FS-UAE was added to the UAE Wikipedia entry – it wasn’t me 🙂

Progress Report on FS-UAE

Posted on by

High-color and high-resolution Workbench screen with Picasso 96 driver installed

Since version 1.0 was released, there has been a couple of bug fix releases and the latest stable version is now 1.0.2. I have been adding more documentation and recently also wrote a getting started guide.

The new development versions (“betas”) have introduced support for Picasso96 and have many other improvements, including performance improvements.

Also, the most recent development versions are compatible with older OpenGL drivers/cards, so if you have problems displaying the menu on your computer, you should try the latest development version!

FS-UAE 1.0.0 Released

Posted on by

Version 1.0.0, the new stable release of FS-UAE is just published. Changes in this version include:

  • Performance improvements.
  • Ability to change controllers during game play from the GUI.
  • Improved net play support with integrated text chat.
  • Improved handling of relative paths in configuration files.
  • New configuration options

The changelog contains more details about the changes and you can download the new version here.

FS-UAE 0.9.12 Released
