If you have just installed FS-UAE, you might want to take a look at the getting started-guide first! As the getting started-guide mentions, you should ideally have Kickstart ROMs for the Amigas you want to emulate.
While you are running the emulator, you can open the FS-UAE menu or use keyboard shortcuts to control the emulator.
Configuration Files
If you use FS-UAE Launcher, you don’t have worry about configuration files, but when you use FS-UAE directly, you need to specify options either as program arguments or via configuration files.
Hi, I’ve put a game in Floppies directory and scanned it on launcher. The game has been recognized but now I would like to delete it. I’ve tried to remove the rom from the floppies directory and make a rescan but the game has not been deleted form the launcher game list. I’ve not found an option to modify the game list manually. Can you explain me how to do?
Thanks.
It sounds like a bug if it is not automatically removed, I’ll try to reproduce. You can probably force the Launcher to rescan by deleting Launcher.sqlite (while not running) and then start the Launcher and update the game database. I’ve also added to the to-do list to create a feature where you can hide individual games from the database.
Hi, I want to emulate syndicate on a flash drive plugged into a chromebook. Is there any way to do this? Thanks again.
Also im want to put this stuff on the flash drive from a windows pc.
Hi, there is no FS-UAE version for ChromeOS :-/
Thanks anyway then. I imagine it won’t, but might it happen in the future?
It is not something I’m thinking of doing, but you never know…
Why can’t I choose where to install it? I’m not having this be the one emulator not installed in my emulators folder.
You can use the portable version and put it anywhere you like 🙂

Hi, you need the action play ROM file, and it needs to be scanned by the FS-UAE Launcher file scanner (“Update File Database”). The “numbers” show are the checksums of the files it is looking for. The rom file is typically named
Action Replay Mk III v3.17.rom.Hello……
I am using windows 10 and I am playing the lemmings game. My mouse pointer is moving far to fast. Lets say like 3 cm it goes right across the screen. The mouse utility from windows I have tried and it makes no difference. Is there any way you can adjust the mouse movement….?
Hi, there is a mouse speed setting in FS-UAE Launcher -> Settings -> Mouse.
Also, the default mouse device is usually accelerated by system drivers. By selecting a specific mouse device (by name) instead of the generic mouse, you’ll probably get more accurate (and un-accelerated) results!
Hey mate.
Im using mac os x 10.6.8.
I was hoping you could direct me to a older version of the uae software so I can use it on my mac.
Thank you
The latest stable version to run on 10.6 was FS-UAE 2.4.1. You can still find it here: http://fs-uae.net/stable/2.4.1/ 🙂
Hi, happy new year !
thanks for your great work!
Q1:
I’m adding manually Demos to the FS-UAE launcher, with these names: “- Demo – Groupname – Demoname (YY-MM-DD)”
I made a mistake while typing the name, and I can’t find an option to remove manually the entry, is there a solution ?
Yes, just delete the corresponding config file from FS-UAE/Configurations and restart the Launcher 🙂
Thanks for your quick answer !
I was just browsing the sqlite DB and deleted the entries with http://sqlitebrowser.org 🙂
anyway, is there a Demo DB planning ? would be awesome !
I will not initiate an official demo database, but might (and have already to a certain degree) help make it easier for other people to do so. There is an unofficial database here: http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?t=77404.
Greetings! Thanks for developing such a great product!
However, having issues using with my MacBook Pro (OS X 10.11.6)
Not able to pull-up the FS-UAE menu (to swap out disks, etc..)
Tried CMD+FN+F12, every other combination, does not work….
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!
Hmm, not really, any custom software being used to remap keys perphaps?
You can change the menu key though, for example (put it in Advanced Settings in FS-UAE Launcher):
keyboard_key_mod_m = action_menuThen you should be able to use Cmd+M to open/close the menu.
keyboard_key_mod_m = action_menu – THAT DID THE TRICK! Thanks!!!
