WinFellow Wishlist
I think winfellow should have its own wishlist thread
![]() First request...I would like a way to un-capture the mouse whilst running winfellow emulation. This is a very important feature for writing guides so I can create screen captures and write down the steps whilst emulation is running. Pressing F11 all the time is a problem/pain as the screen closes. It would be great if this worked in the same way as WinUAE and have the option to press the middle mouse to un-capture the mouse pointer. Last edited by Paul; 05 October 2006 at 11:26. |

WinFellow could do with IPF SPS image support (but I don’t think this will be possible without cycle-exact emulation.)
I know this has been asked for in the past, but I’ll post it anyway...AGA support ![]() Last edited by Paul; 05 October 2006 at 11:32. |

Paul,
do you use SnagIt? If not, I strongly recommend it! WinFellow wishlist? * Better GUI * Nice configuration * Save state * Some sort of cheat utility (something WinUAE is missing too – I know about debugger, but that’s not something similar to what other emulators have) I would stay away from AGA, as that might mess up rest of emulation. |

erm, good plan with the wishlist, but Im afraid I dont think developments been made on any part of winfellow since maybe 2 years ago (!!!)
From what I remember, it was to be just only an A500 emulator- and there were no plans whatsoever for AGA. - the GUI is fine for what it is, but I'd say Savestate would be all-so-useful! |

Worfje,
better GUI imho means that you WinFellow will open in what tab you like it to open. (eg. Configuration tab, Disk drives - like today, Easy Config - nice feature to add) Some settings like mobo ram should be renamed to slow (if that's what represents ![]() What are pro/cons of going toward SDL instead of DirectX? |

Yes, you're right Sir Paul,
I meant bogus ram. ![]() |

1. Should the configuration window always open on the tab you last selected before closing the configuration window? 2. Should we add a tab which should be named 'easy config' (with the appropriate functionality on the tab)? Quote:

For the tabs, give me couple days and I'll write the idea completely. (have to check current tab and how useful it is)
For the last opened tab, I would say option to have one of them to be default would work too. (don't have to memorize which one was last time opened) I would worry about performance as most of Fellow users are on low spec computers. I can say that I don't care about portability, but I'm sure you guys have reasons to port the emulator. (which usually means more work) How hard is to understan WinFellow source code? ![]() Thanks for answers! |

According to Anubis, save state is a good idea.

Just a thought - could the FAME/C 68000 emulator help you with converting to C? UAE4ALL is using this with great success
![]() Incidentally, WinFellow works pretty well on a Sony PCG-U3 which has a 933MHz transmeta chip in it. |

Its a shame tho. i remember a time where WinFellow was more stable then WinUAE years ago. Winfellow is not a bad emulator at all its just that like you said it hasnt been updated anymore.

.. still the best option for low specced PCs too :>
@P-J, I wouldnt say its OFFICIALLY dead, as Mr Worfje-san hasn't said its dead... (so .. unofficially dead!) I believe he wants to carry on with projects such as these, but as it is at the moment, he simply can't put in the time. ...pants ![]() |

seeing how much WinUAE has progressed, I don't see a point for WinFellow any more (and probably Worfje noticed the same at some point)
