I thought it had JIT

It does. It just hasn't been ported to the PPC yet.

Quote:

AmigaOS4 has JIT, so the thing exists.

There are also several Java JITs for the PPC. Alas, the existence of other JITs doesn't make it easier to port the UAE JIT for PPC platforms . . . ;-)

I understand

Still, runs mighty fast for a non JIT environment then!

It's not bad running full-screen (although due to OS X's compositing layer, graphics output is dog slow in windowed mode).

1: VERY choppy mouse movement. At least on Picasso modes. It's unusable (almost)

2: When changing Picasso screens, let's say, from 800x600 to 1024x768, the mouse pointer denies to go further ahead a 800x600 box!

There are a few problems to sort out with regard to mouse input on OS X. It's probably due to deficiencies/differences in the OS X version of SDL compared to the Linux version.

Trying pressing F11+g to grab the mouse pointer (do this in full-screen mode too - it shouldn't be necessary, but it is at the moment).

If you're running a P96 deskop in windowed mode, you should try using mousehack. This will synchronize the Amiga mouse pointer with the host mouse pointer. It makes it much more useable. Launch it in your s:user-startup with something like:

Code:

run c:mousehack >nil:

(assuming you've got it in your C: drawer, that is).

Hi All

This sounds better than MaxUAE...

What do I need to run this and how ?

It depends what kind of system you're running

The general answer is quite simple: go to the website, download the respective binary and run it. Nothing more to it.

Hi

I run a Mac OSX...

I have downloaded two files:-

e-uae-0.8.27-CVS & uae-osx-sdl-200408228

Cannot sem to run anything from these two archives though...

I've never seen that version in action, but from what I know, this is a version without any GUI. What you have to do is run the uae executable and use either command line switches to configure it (fussy) or make a text file with your desired configuration and load it using the -f switch.

Hi

OK, thanks for the replies

You can use the Amiga emulation support pack to create the configs through a GUI (thanks rattus!)

here's the link:
http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/14607

From the two files you downloaded you only need the second, first one is just sources.

Thanks for the link Akira....

Hi All

OK, I seem to have this working now except for one thing, I have horizontal lines from top to bottom across the Amiga emulation screen/window. I used to get rid of these in MaxUAE by choosing Double in the graphics section, but in this emulator this does not seem to cure this problem. Also how do I get the emulator to recognise different configs when I load a game?

This problem only occurs when I load a game from the Game Loader.....

If I just run UAE it seems OK.

Sorry to be a pain.

Hi

Sussed it, I went in and modified the ecs.uaerc file to double in linemode, all fine now. I assume to get this running at its best it would require a G5 and max memory?

Amiga1992 · 14 September 2004, 22:55

I dont know, it ran quite decently in my G3!

Washac · 14 September 2004, 23:22

Hi Akari

Any tips on config setups for best results at all?

If there is a config file, try to look here .

The config file should be similar to linux version if not the same.

Richard Drummond is working very hard and has done a great job on this project. Thanks again Rich, I just sent you a donation. Others should do the same.

Hi

Thanks for that link...

Just one other thing I have happen.

If I start off in fullscreen mode and then drop to window size, I loose the sound.

Same if I start in window size and then goto fullscreen, any ideas.......
