No official (fs-uae.net-provided) binary packages are available for FreeBSD, but the source code compiles and FS-UAE runs on FreeBSD.

The following plugins can be used with FS-UAE. In the future, plugins will probably automatically be downloaded on demand by FS-UAE Launcher, but for now, manual installation is needed.

To install, download the desired plugin zip file and extract the folder within to your Documents/FS-UAE/Plugins folder (You should end up with Documents/FS-UAE/Plugins/PluginName). Create the Plugins folder first if it is missing. If you are using the portable version of FS-UAE, you extract to the Plugins folder in the portable folder instead).

If you want to, you can also download all the below plugins bundled in one archive for your convenience:

FS-UAE-Plugins_2019-05-29.zip

CAPSImg (IPF support plugin)

This plugin provides support for reading IPF floppy disk images, and works on Windows, macOS and Linux.

CAPSImg_5.1fs3.zip

QEMU-UAE (PPC and Slirp plugin)

This plugin provides support for PPC emulation (PPC CPU core provided by QEMU) and Slirp network support, and works on Windows, macOS and Linux.

QEMU-UAE_3.8.2qemu2.2.0.zip

Data file plugins

The following plugins provide files which can used by FS-UAE Launcher. (version 2.9.11dev or newer). When these plugins are present, the Launcher can use the files from the plugins instead of downloading them on-demand from the Internet, so these are mostly useful for creating an offline setup of FS-UAE Launcher.

Hi Frode,
in the latest fs-uae 2.9.7 dev2 i can’t seem to switch off the Black Sidebars when running a game.
I have the 1084S Theme and the black bars simply overlay it. Is there an option somewhere or an entry for “Settings -> Advanced” ?
My “Settings-> Advanced” are:

frame = 0
launcher_config_feature = 1
scanlines = 0
theme = 1084x

Thanks for reading,
G.

  Hi, the newly introduced frame option was renamed to bezel. So bezel = 0 should fix it 🙂

Hi Frode,

Fedora 25
Nvidia 381.22
i7 6700k

I am currently testing 2.9.6dev and have found a bug regarding “windowed” mode.

I launch from command line passing a config file as a parameter which contains the following:

[fs-uae]
chip_memory = 2048
fast_memory = 8192
hard_drive_0 = /mnt/data/emulators/emulator_scripts/amiga/target/ShadowDancer_v1.0_0202.zip
joystick_port_0=mouse
joystick_port_0_mode=mouse
joystick_port_1=Xbox Gamepad (userspace driver)
joystick_port_1_mode=joystick
keep_aspect=1
video_sync_method=swap-fence
kickstart_file=/home/toxicshadow/Documents/FS-UAE/Kickstarts/kick301.rom
theme = test
x_whdload_args = ShadowDancer.Slave PRELOAD
x_whdload_version = 17.1
amiga_model = A1200
window_width = 1680
window_height = 1050
fullscreen = 0

When the game launches the main window is offset to the left and if i press f12 to open the UI the top of the screen is missing, almost as if it thinks the bar at the top of the window doesn’t exist.

I have been using the config files on the stable branch with no problems for a while now so I can be sure that something is different in the devel branch causing the issue.

Thanks.

  Hmm, does the problem occur if you remove theme = test?

I was expecting smoother video playback when I switch my display from 60 to 50Hz (@1920×1080). Somehow this only seems to work in windowed mode.
If I use fullscreen everything gets really jerky and sluggish, audio and video. FS-UAE recgonizes the display correctly (showing either 1920×1080@50Hz or @60Hz depending on what I set up).
Any idea what is happening? At 60Hz everything is fine, but of course scrolling isn’t as smooth as in windowed mode with the desktop running at 50Hz.

  Played around with the settings a bit and this only seems to happen with FSAA set to 4x or 8x, at 2x (and off of course) it works fine. Are the other 2 modes hardcoded to 60Hz displays maybe?
  
  Using a low-end but current NVidia card (1050Ti) under Windows 10.

    Hi, based on your findings, I think it’s likely that using FSAA makes the rendering on the GPU take too long, thus causing missed frames, and, due to vsync being enabled, stuttering and slow playback.
    
    (FSAA isn’t really that useful in FS-UAE, so I recommend keeping it disabled).

      Hmmm… wouldn’t explain why it works at 60Hz though? There’s no difference between no FSAA and 8x at 60Hz. Isn’t that odd?

        If your display is at 60 Hz and the emulation runs at 50 Hz, FS-UAE does not actually enable full v-sync (it cannot do it in a meaningful way). So, the emulation runs like when v-sync is off.

Hi Frode,
by testing the new 2.9.5dev i found that the Mouse is not activated by default where it was in 2.9.3dev.
When in the Aracde Mode one can go to “Input Options” and select Mouse->Mouse. When getting back to the game,
the mouse will work. Could you please look into that issue? Thanks.

  Hi, I uploaded a new test version which should fix the problem: http://fs-uae.net/devel/2.9.5dev3/. (Problem was Windows-only).
