Ric and Fol has released v0.60 of their homebrew Amiga emulator known as PSPUAE. The changelog for the latest update includes:
  • New autoframeskip logic with fps limiting for both PAL and NTSC
  • Real 4-channel stereo
  • Fixed a couple of menu bugs
  • Immediate Blits (Helps with compatability)
  • Blitter Cycle Exact (Helps with compatability)
  • High Density Floppy for 1.7MB floppy disks
As we mentioned before, PSPUAE is a program which emulates the Amiga 500 (A500). The A500 is Commodore's best-selling Amiga model. The A500 became "extinct" in 1992. That was the year Commodore released the A600 and its version of the next-gen machine known as the A1200. The A1200 machine is very similar to the A500 with a few improvements. However, in terms of sales and popularity of game titles, A500 remains unmatched.

Incidentally, there is a PSPUAE version repacked for DA 2.71 SE which is not part of the update. We thought we should let you know in case you missed that.

Some of you may find using PSPUAE a bit complicated. Thankfully, Fol and Ric has revised this homebrew emulator's readme file to make it easier for you. The readme file explains EVERTHING (caps and bold typeface came from the developers) so we wouldn't even think of doing anything before checking it out.

A500 are incredible , but A1200 are AGA chipset , thats mean thats is not just a A500 with some stuff changed inside ....

A1200 AGA mean better grafic , is like the nintendo and the super nintendo in a way .

what killed the Amiga companie is the piracy and the A600 ....well to explaine , the A500 was a good machine , then they made the A600 is a A500 but smaller , but big problem some A500 game wasnt compatible with the A600 and at thats time no internet to check for update or what so ever , the customer are just alone .......

they made the A1200 AGA with HDD suport with a system like a window call WORKBENCH , possible to install the ADF (floppy disk game) to the hdd so no need to swap floppy disk any more ....well the best machine ever if you add a BLIZZARD 68040 (is like a graffic card in a way ) game was gorgouse with 256 color background (Brian the lion , apocalipse , Stardust ...) loading game are faster and older game get better .... So ! to say the A1200 are a A500 with a little change it is wrong !

ISHAR 2 and 3 on A500 are nice.

ISHAR 2 aga and 3 aga on A1200 are superbe !!!!!!!!!

Slam tilt (best ever pinball game) only on A1200 and many other more !!

and CD32 game are compatible with A1200 system so WTF are you waiting for to make a A1200 emulator ?

well i dont blame any one , if you cant make it ....

Why is it, everytime news of a release is posted here, letters go missing, and straight away someone comes out "The word that stands out is spelt wrong". Try visiting pspuae.com for the Original POST with no spelling mistake.

 » Just speed it up, please.

It still runs too darn slow. Ask Zx-81 for private lessons on how to speed emulation up, ask him to cooperate with you, but please, give us full-speed Amiga emulation finally. I bought my PSP for that.

He said no, he will more than likely do his own version. He didnt want to co-operate with us.

 » Speed

Alot of things are full speed now, plus Ric has been working hard on PSPUAE since it was dumped a year ago. All I use my PSP for now is PSPUAE, but people are to fussy, and never seem to acknowledge the already speed increase.

 » Yeah, works much better now

Thanks!

 » zx-81 emulators

actually, i hate to tell you this barts_706, but all of zx-81's emulators are straight ports, and with the exception of attempting to push the GBA emulator (and not achieveing full-speed, and defering to a better, custom-built project) i've seen little evidence that getting speed from emualtion is where ZX-81's skills lie.

yes, he is good at making portable code run on the PSP, but his emualtors are frankly simple, under-developed and too watered down imho, (a result of taking on too many projects i think) and dont show any evidence that the man would be capable of pushing much more out of pspuae, especially considering the Amiga is the hardest machine of any to emulate. This is my personal view from having used a number of ZX's emulators and having been frankly disapointed all round.

also this emu is quite a bit faster than before, i find it strange you are stuggling to find anything playable on it. i guess some people really dont like frameskip. (which i find odd since this emu is just as fast as the SNES one but no one moans about using frameskip that, and its a far simpler machine)
