FS-UAE v3.0

June 27th, 2019, 17:35 Posted By: wraggster

FS-UAE v2.8.3 is released. fs-uae is a multi-platform Amiga emulator based on UAE/WinUAE, with a focus on emulating floppy-disk and CD-ROM based games. An important feature of the emulator is that it is fully controllable with a gamepad from your couch, with an on-screen GUI, which means that you can easily swap floppies and load save states with your gamepad. fs-uae is well suited to be started from an emulator frontend running on a HTPC, for instance.

The emulator has less configuration options than other UAE variants, but rather focuses on default settings which just works. For example, if you are running fs-uae in Amiga 500 mode, you cannot turn off cycle-exact mode.

FS-UAE v3.0 Changelog:
Changes in FS-UAE 3.0 (compared to 2.8):

* Fixed JIT direct access on modern Linux distributions.
* FS-UAE default is now to show a 692×540 image, not stretched to fill screen.
* Built-in configurations for many more game controllers.
* New option whdload_quit_key to gracefully quit slaves.
* Added more shaders (compiled/ported/written by guest.r and rsn8887).
* Updated emulation core from WinUAE 3300b2.
* Several new configuration options (see Changelog for details).
* Many more smaller fixes and updates (see Changelog for details).

Changes in FS-UAE Launcher 3.0 (compared to 2.8):

* Plugins can provide files for offline use (WHDLoad, JST, SKick, etc).
* Added support for .gz/.adz/.roz/.xz-compressed files.
* Support WHDLoad versions 18.4 and 18.5 (game database).
* Revert fullscreen_mode to default when upgrading from older versions.
* Use https for all more fs-uae.net and openretro.org communication.
* Support hd_requirements = xpkmaster.library.
* Fixed problem on Windows where devices were sometimes not detected.
* Make configurations list wider when window width is quite large.
* Try to use config from game database when launching with a WHDLoad archive.
* Extract WHDLoad arguments from .info file when loading a WHDLoad archive.
* Sync “unpublished” games from the online game database, option to show.
* Many bugfixes and smaller improvements (see Changelog for details).

Build-related:

* Only x86-64 (64-bit) official builds for Windows and macOS and Linux.
* Building for x86 (32-bit) still works on all platforms.
* 32-bit packages for Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora and openSUSE are still available.
* Builds for macOS require 10.9+. The source can be built for older versions.

(Bottom line, no support is removed from the source code. I just want to maintain less build environments).

Atari VCS goes on pre-sale in the US starting at $250

June 12th, 2019, 21:48 Posted By: wraggster

Pre-sales have begun for Atari's upcoming new console, the Atari VCS, with prices on different versions running from $250 up to $390.
The Atari VCS is planned for a March 2020 launch and can be pre-ordered in the US through the official website, GameStop, or Walmart. There are two different models plus a third bundle, with multiple colors available.


A 4GB model will cost $249.99, while an 8GB model is $279.99. Each retailer has its own exclusive color of a bundled 8GB edition of the console that includes a Classic Joystick controller and a Modern Controller. The bundles cost $389.99, with individual Classic Joysticks and Modern Controllers available for purchase for $49.99 and $59.99, respectively.
The Atari VCS purportedly features an AMD Ryzen processor that can handle 4K HDR streaming, and will allow users to play new games, classic and remastered Atari titles, and stream multimedia. Every console will ship with the Atari Vault, which includes over 100 Atari home and arcade classic titles.
So far, no other games have been announced for the system. More details on games and other software, as well as distribution outside the US, are expected later this year.
