Beta 6:

- FPU emulation floating point to integer conversion fixed, previously for example float -> byte conversion simply truncated to byte instead of clamping it to -128 or 127 if original value can't fit in a byte. Same problem was with words and longs. (Aske Christensen)
- uaeserial.device compatibility fixes
- A500 D80000-DDFFFF area is unmapped (except possible RTC at DC0000) higher end models can have other MB devices here
- A1000 is most likely the only Amiga model that has custom chips mapped at D80000-DDFFFF
- RTC access is now exactly same as in real A500 (if more compatible setting enabled)
- AGA end of fast (or chip if no fast) to BBFFFF is not mapped, same with C00000 to D7FFFF. (Need more testing) Mapping changes may help with some buggy programs that poke illegal addresses.
- My A1200 seems to have KS ROM mapped at 0xA80000-B7FFFF. But with Blizzard 1260 installed it is replaced with 64kb "bank" of RAM from card's expansion RAM.. It seems all "unmapped" areas map to Blizzard's expansion RAM. Quite interesting effect.. (not emulated)
- serial port detection update. For some reason not all serial ports (at least some USB types) can't be detected by enumerating GUID_CLASS_COMPORT class. (and this was supposed to be the proper way to do it..)
- do not log KS motherboard RAM probe (less useless spam when booting)
- Picasso96 graphics corruption introduced in previous betas should be fixed (also other changes, can be faster or slower in some cases, also there is possibility something else broke..)

Beta 6

I think I have found two bugs with b6.

1. My 1.3.4 config has the GUI flags set in Misc, b6 ignores it. When I do a F12 it shows unchecked and it's disabled so I can't check it.

2. When I use the -disableharddrivesafetycheck on the command line, it appears the main Windows display for the Amiga comes up before and in front of the dialogue box that warns me about the safety check. This makes it very difficult to OK the dialogue box, the Alt-Tab doesn't work. I end up doing a CTRL-ALT-DEL which bring me back to XP in which I can OK the dialogue, the Amiga then boots. With 1.3.4 the safety check dialogue came up before anything else.

Please be more specific. GUI flags = ?

Why do you have harddrive configured in configuration file that needs -disableblahblah? It is only meant to be used once to allow partitioning empty harddrive.. (=dialog appears when adding the drive, not when starting emulation)

Anyway, I'll take a closer look..

CD Device selection..

Toni this is stunning, i have been playing with WinUAE for years and it keeps getting better. I have my old Amiga config running on it, so thank you for your hard work.

This may have been asked about before.. Not being a coder, i was wondering how easy(or hard) it would be to put in a device selector for the CDTV/CD32 emulation. I have 2 physical cd rom drives and 1 virtual, it would be nice not to have to move all the drive letters around to use them.

Also, it's not important, any idea if it would be possible to get the CD+G working on the CDTV? (did the cd32 support that?).

Thanks for your time and devotion to the project

WinUAE CD32/CDTV emulation does not care about drive letters, it enumerates all drives and selects first one with CD32/CDTV CD inserted. If no CD32/CDTV CD, select first drive with Audio CD. No Audio CD detected -> select first drive and keep listening for CD media change messages and try again when CD is inserted in any drive.

CD+G support needs subchannel data and you can't read it without direct SCSI-style access = not worth the trouble.. perhaps in future..

For some reason, I totally forgot about this forum. No idea how or why.

Anyway, Cloantas' default.uae now loads correctly without the need of additional changes - Ie, the memory problem is now fixed.

However, it still refuses to access Cat:

Log included at here. Warning: Long. 30 megs. For this log file, I used Cloantas' default.uae

What is this log supposed to mean? Log is full of repeating errors but it does not help much (lines after first few error messages are no use)

CW detection information is in winuaebootlog.txt..

CW detection looks ok but I don't think AF default.uae has catweasel floppy enabled by default (CW checkbox in misc panel)

You need to find the cause for error messages in log first (it has nothing to do with CW)

Beta 7: (possible bug fixes and small tweaks left)

http://www.winuae.net/files/b/winuae_1400b7.zip

- Picasso96 graphics problems really fixed
- adjusting GUI sound settings on the fly does not anymore cause random sound issues after returning back to emulation (like missing channel(s) for few moments etc..)
- Action Replay 1, ver 1.0 added to ROM scanner identication list

Reply if there are still bugs introduced in previous 1.4 betas left (even if you have posted about it previously)

Using OS3.9's HDToolbox on uaehf.device crashes WinUAE, no matter if used on a HDF or a real HDD. 3.1's HDToolbox works fine. Docs attached.

You mean the 'load config 'C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Documents\Amiga Files\WinUAE\Configurations\default.uae':0
obsolete config entry 'kickstart_key_file'
obsolete config entry 'sound_adjust'
obsolete config entry 'fast_copper'
obsolete config entry 'catweasel_io'
LCD: Logitech LCD system not detected'?

What do I replace them with?

Hmm...In the winuaelog.txt: 'Illegal lput at 00200000=00000000 PC=f80240'

In the CAT file: 'MaxTransfer = 0x00200000'...

Thoughts?

Do you mean it boots without errors in log if you disable catweasel and remove CAT-mountlist?

There is no replacement for listed obsolete entries, they are completely obsolete, just resave the config to fix it

Maxtransfer has nothing to do with memory address in the log.

MCI CD Audio seems to only accept calls from single thread (thread that opened MCI). Calling from another thread returns only weird unrelated error message.. Fixed in next release.

I don't use G15 anymore (switched to Bluetooth Desktop MX 5000 keyboard, I have habit of replacing PC components very regularly..) Will be fixed in future when/if I can duplicate it..

Hi Toni,

in the recent 0.112 release of MAME they added CD32 (arcade machine) support - I was wondering if you had any involvement with that or if you ever worked with the MAME/MESS guys at all?

There was some with Arcadia support but none with CD32.

hmm i had posted something here but its gone ..

in latest winuae beta screens wont switch between "hardware" and "host" on left panel.. (this doesnt happen on older official winuae)
normally you could click on hardware.. and then on host or vice versa.. in this version you cant.. if you are on hardware page. and you click on host.. it is still showing hardware page.. so in order to make a workaround for that in this beta.. if you are on hardware page.. click on another page and then you can click on host page.. then it works..

and customized drivesounds still dont work (only 1.3.3 works)

Because it was moved. Drive sound problem is not beta-specific.

Allowed posts in beta thread:

- bug reports but make sure bug is NOT in previous offical version. (Old bug -> separate thread)

No, I was just pulling things from the log in the hope of figuring out what went wrong.

I have no clue.

Beta 9: (RC 2. Perhaps final.)

http://www.winuae.net/files/b/winuae_1400b9.zip

- non-ASPI CDTV CD audio didn't always stop when exiting/reseting
- added dj [<mask>] command to debugger. Enable joystick/mouse input logging
- CDTV quickstart chip ram size set to correct 1M (correct config is more important than workaround for one game)
- Fixed another filesystem lock leak in ACTION_FH_FROM_LOCK (dos.library/OpenFromLock())
- do not allow unlocking of non-existing locks in filesystem. Previously it caused random memory corruption and also triggered following (previously unknown) 1.0b2 issue: "added workaround for AMOS filesystem emulation incompatibility (infinite loop in filesystem code) Reason for freeze unknown, proper fix unknown.. (filesystem emulation is confusing..)"
- external drive sound selection GUI didn't work if fdrawcmd.sys was not installed

Beta 10 (pre-final, 1-2 days to go..)

http://www.winuae.net/files/b/winuae_1400b10.zip

- in some cases dskready signal was set active even if floppy drive was empty and motor was running
- yet another undocumented CIA TOD related feature implemented. TOD does not latch (by reading TODHI) if CRB ALARM-bit is set. Fixes Batman the Movie (which worked in older versions only by accident..)

["last minute" bug fixes again, I shouldn't really do this but I couldn't refuse..]

Some CD32 games have scrambled graphics on default quickstart configuration (see the screenshots). You need to save the config and change the "blitter_cycle_exact" flag to "false" to have them running correctly.

This isn't beta related either but too lazy to move it. It isn't nothing new: 68020+/AGA modes are not and won't be fully compatible due to reason which have been explained multiple times. (and cycle exact in 68020+ modes is only a hack that either helps or breaks everything and it can change between versions..)

Why not to set blitter_cycle_exact=false for quickstart cd32 config then?

Oops, I thought you meant it is not set but needs to be set.. Hmm.. It really shouldn't be set except in "special" circumstances if using 68020+. (will think about this after 1.4 is out)
