Download WinUAE 2.6.0

Version 2.6.0 of WinUAE has been released. This Windows port of the UAE Amiga Emulator is able to emulate a Commodore Amiga perfectly. All models, from the very first Amiga 1000 to the Amiga 4000, are supported. However, you should keep in mind that WinUAE without kickstart (so to speak the bios/firmware of an Amiga) or other software is provided. More information can be found in the Amiga Emulator FAQ are being found. WinUAE runs on Windows 2000 and above, and the download is less than 4MB in size. Amiga Forever is a possible solution for a kickstart and programs, with prices starting at 10 euros. Below you can find everything that has changed since version 2.5.0.

• Game Ports panel Remap GUI rewritten, more intuitive, supports manually added events.
• SCSI and ATAPI (IDE) CD drive emulation.
• Built-in full CHD CD and HD image support. HD image support is read only.
• Partial partition hardfile on the fly eject/replacement support, requires filesystem that has removable drive support.
• Multiple Direct3D shader filters can be enabled simultaneously, optionally shader can be now run after scaling and filtering.
• Directory filesystem shortcut (.lnk) and symbolic links are mapped to Amiga soft links.
• Added support for mountlist-like hardfile configuration files.
• 100Hz+ vsync mode black frame insertion support, reduces LCD motion blur.

• A590/A2091/A3000 SCSI emulation compatibility improved. (Amix, NetBSD etc..)
• A2065 network adapter compatibility improved. (Early NetBSD versions)
• Multithreaded IDE and SCSI emulation, slow read or write operations won’t temporarily pause the emulation anymore.
