WinUAEX v1

posted in Emulator Release by narvick on Jun 19th, 2004

XPort has released a new port of the Amiga emulator WinUAE to the XBox! Here are the features:
  • Emulates Amiga
  • Excellent compatibility - ported from WinUAE v0.8.27
  • ZIP support
  • Cheat system - Search/Create your own cheat codes (see notes)
  • Favorites list
  • Save states
  • Virtual Keyboard - go to Controller Configuration / UI Mappings to select the button combo that will bring up the Virtual Keyboard while in-game.
  • Real keyboard support
  • Real mouse support
  • Hard drive files (HDF) and hard drive directory support
  • Lots of WinUAE customization options
  • Fast forward/throttle
  • Resizable game screen
  • Skinnable
  • Save Game management - delete save game files
  • Text file viewer
  • ISO9660 support
  • User definable save directory. If you don't like the default of E:SAVESWINUAEX you can change it via the menu.
  • Take in-game screenshots and display them on the game selection list
  • New UI features - auto-screenshot capture mode. When enabled, the emu will start taking screenshots at a user-defined interval. Useful for ripping sprites/animation.
  • Hardware filtering options: Point, Bilinear, Trilinear, Anisotropic
  • Record/Playback feature - record your gameplay in the emu and then play it back again. Record up to 10 minutes of gameplay.
  • Every single in-game command is fully customizable on any of the four joypad controllers.
  • Map any emulator or UI command to a single button or a combination of two buttons. (e.g. RTrigger+LTrigger = Save State)
  • Autofire capabilities for any emulator button on any controller
  • One-button combos
  • Traverse any directory on any drive
  • All UI commands (save state, load state, screenshot, etc) can be invoked from the Options/Pause menu as well as in-game via your customized joypad mappings.
  • Can be invoked from a command-line to directly run a game from a front-end or dashboard and bypass the user-selection screen. (Only if the frontend or dashboard supports this feature.)
  • Can return to the launching program *if* the launching program supports this feature.
As usual, this emulator uses official Microsoft XDK, so no download is available here. The Emulators for XBox page has been updated for this release.
