Short: Amiga emulator with PPC JIT and ReAction GUI
Author: Richard Drummond, Almos Rajnai, Kjetil Hvalstrand, Falke_34 et al.
Uploader: Falke_34
Type: emulation/amiga
Version: v16 (ReAction GUI, based on E-UAE PPC JIT 1.1.2)
Requires: AmigaOS 4.1 Final Edition, AHI, Kickstart ROM image
Architecture: ppc-amigaos >= 4.1.0
License: GPL
E-UAE ReAction
==============
E-UAE is an emulator of the Commodore Amiga for AmigaOS 4.1 PPC, with a
just-in-time compiler for 68020+ code (PowerPC JIT by Almos Rajnai). This
release adds a native ReAction configuration GUI and many fixes and new
features to the AmigaOS 4 version of E-UAE.
It runs on all AmigaOS 4.1 PPC systems (AmigaOne X5000/X1000/A1222,
Sam440/460, Pegasos II, Classic PPC) and under QEMU.
Highlights
----------
* ReAction GUI with pages for media, hardware, display, sound, hard
disks, input, shortcuts and configuration; tooltips; English and German
(locale catalog)
* PowerPC JIT compiler, 68000 - 68060, FPU, AGA, Zorro II/III memory
* Built-in Picasso96 graphics card (uaegfx.card in the boot ROM, up to
128 MB, hardware mouse pointer, VBLANK interrupt)
* Hard disks: directories, hardfiles (with RDB), IDE controller of the
A600/A1200 (Gayle) and A4000
* CD-ROM drive with ISO and CUE/BIN images (also CD audio), at
uaescsi.device or as ATAPI drive at the IDE controller; bootable as CD0:
with any Kickstart
* Create blank floppy disks and hardfiles from the GUI
* Configurable hotkeys, savestates, bsdsocket.library emulation
Installation
------------
Copy the drawer anywhere and start E-UAE from its icon. Put your Kickstart
ROM images into PROGDIR:Roms/ (or choose another folder in Settings).
Kickstart ROMs are NOT included - they are copyrighted. Use the ROMs from
Amiga Forever or dump them from your own Amiga.
For the graphics card the emulated Amiga needs Picasso96 (rtg.library) and
the monitor file DEVS:Monitors/UAEGFX; the uaegfx.card itself is built in.
Usage notes
-----------
* Right mouse button menu of the GUI window: About, Settings, Quit.
* Settings: default folders for ROMs, floppies, hardfiles, CD images,
configurations and savestates, and the log output (off / window /
file PROGDIR:E-UAE.log). Saved in PROGDIR:E-UAE.prefs.
* "Save" writes the default configuration, "Save as..." any file
(".cfg" is added).
* CD-ROM: Hard disks page -> "Add CD-ROM drive...". To boot from CD tick
"Boot from CD (mount as CD0:)". Without that option the emulated Amiga
needs a CD file system (CDFileSystem, CacheCDFS, ...) and a mount entry;
at uaescsi.device: Device = uaescsi.device, Unit = 0, SectorSize = 2048.
The ATAPI drive at IDE needs a scsi.device with ATAPI support
(Kickstart 3.1.4 / 3.2 or a patched driver). A CD drive alone on the
slave position (no master) delays the boot by about 30 seconds, like
on real hardware.
* Default hotkeys: Ctrl + Alt + Q quit, Ctrl + Alt + S fullscreen,
Ctrl + Alt + R reset, Ctrl + Alt + F1..F4 insert disk in DF0..DF3 -
all can be changed on the Shortcuts page.
History
-------
v16
Core:
- Built-in uaegfx.card (no card file needed), hardware mouse pointer,
VBLANK interrupt, BlitRectTransparent
- Graphics card memory up to 128 MB (16/32 MB boards were announced as
8 MB before)
- Faster RTG output: changed lines copied once per frame, window only
redrawn when something changed
- CD-ROM drive with ISO and CUE/BIN images, CD audio, disc change while
running; at uaescsi.device or as ATAPI drive at the IDE controller
- Booting from CD: built-in ISO 9660 file system, drive mounted as CD0:
- uaescsi.device fixes (unit thread end, request abort, repeated
installation in the boot ROM area)
GUI:
- Real fullscreen switches for Amiga and Picasso96 modes, fullscreen
hotkey toggles window / own screen
- Graphics card options (hardware pointer, VBLANK)
- CD-ROM drive on the Hard disks and Media pages
- Menu (About, Settings, Quit) and Settings window (folders, log output)
Fixes:
- Grey screen left after quitting from an own screen
- Status bar showed "CPU 0%" at full load
v15
Core:
- JIT soft cache flush (keeps unchanged translated code)
- JIT is switched off when cycle-exact is enabled (as in WinUAE)
- Display was composited twice per frame - up to 8x faster with JIT
at maximum CPU speed
GUI:
- CPU list with 68020/68881 FPU combinations (FPU was silently removed)
- Create blank floppy disks and hardfiles (OFS/FFS, PFS3, SFS, RDB)
- Hard disks page redesigned: one drive list, separate windows for
hardfiles and directories
Fixes:
- "Load..." did not load the configuration
- Model preset recognised after loading
- Hotkeys checked the wrong keys (Alt vs. Amiga key), modifier order,
stuck keys
- "Save as..." adds ".cfg"
v14
- Hard disks: RDB hardfiles can be added, one list for UAE and IDE drives
v12 - v13
- IDE controller emulation: A600/A1200 (Gayle) and A4000, master/slave
v11
- CPU core: exception frames and undefined flags of CHK, CHK2, DIVL,
MULL fixed (checked with the UAE CPU tester)
v10
- CPU/FPU core fixes (DIVS.W overflow, FPU rounding, FABS, FSCALE, FCMP,
FGETEXP, FTRAPcc, FMOVECR constants)
- Shortcuts page: hotkeys can be reassigned
- LED overlay in 16-bit screen modes
v1 - v9
- ReAction GUI, tooltips, locale support (English, German)
- Amiga model presets, JIT cache size choice
- Fixes: wrong colours, 100% host CPU load while waiting, crash in
path handling, empty window without hardware compositing, 68040/68060
32-bit only, quitting from the start screen
