Hacking [RELEASE] UAE4ALL - Amiga emulator

[sj33]

Just want to thank you again for your continued work on this. Having an Amiga on a handheld still blows my mind, and this emulator brings me such joy.

Sorry to double post.

Can I confirm that .adz files do not work in the Vita port? The base UAE4All supports it but they don't appear to load in the Vita version.

Given uncompressed .adf files are full 800kb disk dumps, that's a lot of wasted space per game assuming most disks are not full!

True, adz does not work atm.

New release:

I haven't used my Vita since last summer, I don't suppose sound is working in IK+ now?

 

[rsn8887]

no IK+ sound is still broken.

Are there any plans to make this for the Switch? It's about the only emu I'm interested in. Great work as usual!

Great work! I love this emu! Here's a quick top 10 of my fave Amiga games:
SWOS (especially the new build with current players - it's also the only game I can work via the HD - if anyone can help me get others pleas let me know!)
Speedball 2
Supercars 2
Stunt Car Racer
Player Manager
Goal!
The Curse of Monkey Island
Batman: The Movie (was one of the first games I was able to complete as a kid and always had a soft spot for it!)
Super Skidmarks 2 (can't get this to work on the emu, appreciate any help!)
Cannon Fodder

I'd love to hear other folks' fave games!

Thanks for your continued support of this. I know all too well how difficult it can be to find the time to work on these projects. So it’s greatly appreciated.

New update yesterday:
https://www.github.com/rsn8887/uae4all2/releases/latest

1.69

• Improve pointer response to slow finger motion

You might have noticed that the mousepointer didn't move at all if the finger moved very slowly. This is now fixed.

It gives a lot of extra precision when using touch with mouse-based games like Poing or Shufflepuck Cafe. BTW: testing this I found out that Shufflepuck Cafe needs "Blitter: Normal" setting to work, just like PP Hammer and Spindizzy Worlds.

I applied the same fix to Enigma and ScummVM, too.

rsn8887 thanks

Wow. This Amiga emulator is amazing! I did what I call the "acid test" on this which is try and get SlamTilt Pinball running, a game which used to be a pain to run at all under WinUAE some years back, something about being fussy with blitter options if I remember rightly. I was expecting the emulator to hang or just black screen when loading the first table, Mean Machines, but after setting A1200 mode, making a few tweaks and inserting the ADF disks it ran perfectly! I was speechless.

Make a custom keymap so flippers are on the triggers and tilt controls are on the analogue stick/d-pad etc and bam, totally playable. When I got the multiball I thought "there's no way this thing is gonna handle a sudden switch into Super Hires Interlaced" yet... no it was perfect, instantaneous and still buttery smooth, switched back to 640x256 afterwards as well. Completely stable.

I don't know what assembly tricks the dev team pulled, but on the strength of this one game colour me impressed. Gave me a reason to dust off the Vita again after months and play for hours. If/when the Switch hack scene evolves I hope this gets ported, it runs that well.

Thanks so much everyone involved. :-D

Absolutely loving this. I have had various handhelds over the years including Android based ones but playing dungeon crawlers, particularly Dungeon Master, has never been a pleasant experience. However playing on the Vita it is almost perfect as I can map the direction keys to the Vita's buttons and away I go. Is there anyway that if I use a touch-screen pen that the part of the screen that gets tapped translates as to where the Amiga mouse pointer clicks? This would be great for games like Cannon Fodder and Dungeon Master.

As a heads up for anyone who doesn't mind downloading a large file there is a Raspberry Pi torrent that is about 60GB in size called 'Ultimate Amiga for Raspberry Pie 3 v2.0 from Ransom'. It takes ages to extract but inside are 4251 converted HDF files (26.2GB) which are all self-booting WHDload files. This means there is no messing about loading Workbench or having to swap ADF files for those larger games such as Monkey Island 2. Absolutely perfect for UAE4ALL

Hello friend I've also seen that pack but it's too much to download, even though I'm interested in hdf games but I do not know how they load in uae4all for ps vita, you could tell me how. And finally that pack has the snowbros in hdf, that does not manage to load it in adf in any version, does not change the disquette. Thank you
