WinUAE 4.9.1 – 02.02.2022 – Released!

Hi everyone,

A new version of WinUAE was released a few days ago on the 2nd of February 2022. 🙂

Here is a list of changes, fixes and updates since the last version:

4.9.0 bugs fixed

  • JIT indirect was unstable.
  • JIT enabled + emulated (not uaegfx) RTG board corruption was possible in certain situations.
  • Direct 3D 11 mode shader buffer leak.
  • x86 AT bridgeboard (A2286 and A2386SX) boot crash.
  • PCem RTG board 15 and 16-bit lores modes didn’t horizontally double correctly.
  • Remove interlace artifact option added 1 scanline offset to bitplanes and sprites.
  • Custom chipset and programmed display mode updates and fixes.

Older bugs fixed

  • Mouse would start moving erratically if emulator has been running continuously more than 10 hours.
  • Integer scaling only worked correctly if horizontal (lores, hires, superhires) and vertical resolution (non-doubled, doubled) matched.Filtered lores had wrong colors if host graphics mode was 16-bit.
  • NTSC mode and software switch to PAL: display was incorrectly vertically stretched.
  • Software YUV based filters had bad colors (32-bit only)
  • Paula configured for 4us (GCR) mode but normal 2us MFM disk in drive: disk index reporting was unreliable.

Updates

  • Programmed display mode improvements (positioning, blanking etc)
  • uaegfx Picasso96 overlay now works correctly with screen dragging.

New features

  • It is now possible to type (almost) normally in warp mode. Keyboard key (if non-qualifier key) presses are released immediately in warp mode.
  • Epson printer emulation does not anymore print each page as a separate document.
  • Added IDE scsi.device disable hack. Makes booting noticeably quicker on OS39 and newer KS versions if mainboard IDE is not needed.
  • PCem Cirrus Logic SVGA emulation planar support enabled. Picasso96 supports 4bit/16 color planar mode.
  • “Default” filter and integer scale filters now automatically double horizontal or vertically if horizontal and vertical resolutions are different (for example lores + vertical doubling)

If you want to download the new version, you can find it on the official webiste of WinUAE:
