v2.0

Beta testing phase has ended.

v2.0b4

Bug fixes:

• Fixed a bug which led to wrong geometry predictions for some HDFs (AdventuresOfQuik&Silva.hdf).
• The write-through image wasn't updated after attaching a new hard drive.

Enhancements:

• User-settings are now managed by the core emulator and no longer by the GUI.

v2.0b3

Bug fixes:

• Fixed a bug that caused the emulator to crash during startup on some machines
• Drag and drop was broken for drives other than Df0 and Hd0

Enhancements:

• Hard drive controller is now compatible with Kickstart 1.2
• Status bar icon reports the initialisation state of the HD controller
• New app icon

v2.0b2

Bug fixes:

• Fixed a graphics bug caused by returning an erroneous value from DENISEID (#676, #675)
• Several smaller GUI tweaks

Enhancements:

• Added support for the debug board implemented by @mras0 (#666)
• Improved HDF geometry prediction (#674)
• A new write-through mode makes hard drives persistent (#670)
• Added several new debugging features
  • Catchpoints (stops emulation on CPU exceptions) (#666)
  • Software traps (#666)
  • Copper breakpoints and Copper watchpoints (#668)
  • Rudimentary callstack recording (#671)

v2.0b1

New features:

• Added hard drive support.
• The Sparkle updater is back.
• Added a new video mode that automatically centers the display window.

Enhancements:

• Copper accuracy has been improved.
• vAmiga is a notarised app now.
• The path to the FFmpeg executable can be customised.

Bugs:

• The HSYNC area has been shifted to the proper location.

v1.1b9

This release replaces v1.1b8 which had beed pulled due to critical errors.

Enhancements:

• The hardware config panel has been split into a separate chipset panel and a memory panel.

Compatibility:

• The DDF logic has been reworked from scratch based on the Agnus schematics.
• The HBLANK area has been shortened and moved (#637, #584, #575).

Bugs:

• The Copper can’t trigger at cycle $E3 any more.
• Fixed a bug in the LINK command that had been introduced recently.
• Fixed some Sanitizer warnings.

v1.1b7

Features:

• Added support for remote connections. Three remote servers have been implemented:
  • A serial port server emulating a null modem cable on the serial port of the Amiga (#619).
  • A retro shell server that allows the user to connect to retro shell via telnet (#619).
  • An experimental GDB server implementing parts of the GDB serial remote protocol (#618).

Compatibility:

• Writes to DMA pointer registers are sometimes dropped on a real Amiga. The old code for checking if a write has to be dropped didn’t work correctly in all cases (#606).

Bug fixes:

• In the video configuration panel, the color palette couldn’t be changed any more. This has been fixed (#605).
• OCS detection failed in some scenarios (#599).
• On startup, some CPU registers were initialised with wrong values (#596).

Code quality:

• The code has been migrated to Cmake and is now compatible with all three major C++ compilers (clang, gcc, msvc) (#611, #619).

v1.1b6

This new beta version features a vastly improved Line Blitter and various smaller compatibility improvements.

v1.1b5

• CPU IPL polling is more accurate now (Phenomena Spectre Party Demo)
• Fixed a bug in the implementation of the LINK command that was able to crash the emulator

v1.1b4

• The Blitter interrupt was triggered one DMA cycle too early (High Density by Darkness, #466)
• Fixed an IPL polling issue in the CLR command (High Density by Darkness, #466)
• The emulator does no longer crash when mouse controls are accessed from keyboard window (#550)
• Merged in Rom database extensions made by @chris70c
