New Version Of The Amiga Emulator WinUAE

A couple of updates now for the best Commodore Amiga emulator there is for Windows, possibly for any system, so let’s get straight down to it:

Beta 3:
• added exception handler that writes log message if openal or portaudio device enumeration crashes
• fixed d3d pot/square texture restriction check, only for really old display cards (which may be too slow for d3d filter..)
• bsdsocket cleanup crash fix (ancient win32-specific bug)
• gzip decompression problem (yet another unicode conversion bug), also broke built-in hrtmon (which is gzipped internally)
• reset fpu rounding state to original temporarily when doing filter calculations (single pixel jittering in some filtering modes if Amiga-side code uses FPU and modifies rounding mode)

Beta 2:
• fs “double vsync” mode (100Hz+) was still slow in warp mode (note D3D mode will stay “slow” because afaik it is not possible to switch D3D vsync on/off on the fly)
• added warp mode to configuration file (warp=true/false, config file read-only)
• and another read-only configuration entry, “headless” that switches invisible emulation mode (window gets hidden). future feature..
• log window scrollback buffer increased to 900 lines
• command prompt “console wrapper” support (run winuae in command prompt: output goes to command prompt window, does not open separate log window) More information later, not important just yet..
• saving configuration after modifying input-panel autofire setting caused modified input event to be saved incorrectly (old bug)
• display scaling does not anymore change D3D filter scanline scaling
• unicode conversion broke magic mouse
• uaeunp file handling update broke some archive operations (b1)
• loading config from command line with GUI enabled didn’t override quickstart (if enabled)
• added “toggle” option to input panel. First button/key press = emulated button is pressed and kept down. Second button/key press = emulated button is released
