Downloaded already and it rocks! Although only the SDL-version, but i guess this new version of E-UAE was done with the SDL in mind When the full version of E-UAE 0.8.28 is out, both the E-UAE and the SDL-version will work!

Yes, it's much faster now

i have problems booting my os3.x install with this uae version, it works fine with the former one. (just double checked)

filesystem2=rw,DH0:AmigaOS3:HDs/AmigaOS3,1


thats the line i use.

any hints?

@ Evilrich

nice one fella, how about starting a BOUNTY for Catweasel support

@ MikeB typo in the news item. "Drummon's "

Try to run the SDL-version of E-UAE 0.8.28RC2 instead and see if it brings your OS3 into it with your .uarc config. I don't think the normal E-UAE program (supporting fullscreen) is working in the new version yet, cause this update probably at the moment only was done with the SDL-version in mind. I'm sure the final release of E-UAE 0.8.28 will have both the fullscreen and the SDL working...

Try the SDL and see what happens..

This should create a virtual volume AmigaOS3: on device DH0: and mount the host path HDs/AmigaOS3 relative to the current directory as that volume. Is that what you intended?

Which version did you download? Note, that there's only an SDL build of the new version for OS4.0 at the moment. Try running uae -version to check you're using the right one (it should say E-UAE 0.8.28-RC2).

I plan to starting working on Catweasel support very soon.

README from Richard's website:
Quote:

AmigaOS (and clones) -------------------- * Fixed virtual filesystem bug that broke mounting of a host path ending in a ':' or a '/'. * Faster start-up on OS4 on AmigaONE hardware (it's no longer ncessary to perform timing calibration at start-up). * High/true-colour rendering supported on AROS. * AmigaOS graphics driver now works on OS4 update 3. * Emulated SCSI device and hence CD32 emulation now work on OS4.0 (support other Amiga-like OSes will follow).

CD32 support! Sweet!
Thanks for the great job you've done on this Richard - it's very much appreciated.

Don't get too excited yet. Unfortunately the speed sucks (that's not just a problem with the OS4.0 version, the Akiko emulation's performance is rubbish everywhere). I haven't tried to speed up this part of the code yet, though, and it may be possible that some optimizations can be made.

evilrich:

no idea , it works fine on the old E-UAE (former release) but not with this new release (only black screen) , all i did was replacing the new exe and files with the old ones.


E-UAE 0.8.28-RC2
Build date: Aug 11 2005 22:53:25 (not working (virtual)

vs:

older version (working virtual)


cheers


maybe its just my settings?

To be sure, this version can be set to fullscreen by pressing ctrl-alt-s.

Hmmm. Can you redirect E-UAE's output to a file (uae *>uae.log) and send that to me and include your config file, please.

Cheers,
Rich

evilrich:

you have mail now.


thanks for looking into it though it might just be my fault but ummm wonderwhy it worked fine with the older e-uae's.

cheers

Harddisk emulation very slow (drawer on SFS partition).
E-UAE 08.28 (2005.06.11) OS3.1 booting - 5s
E-UAE 08.28-RC2 OS3.1 booting - 70s :(

Many Richard for your continuing work with E-UAE - looking forward to Catweasel drivers and playing the classic games with real joysticks!

mufa: oh?

maybe thats why i cant get it to work here (its maybe actually working just taking forever (and yes i use SFS) ...though i did wait like 2 minutes..

will try again, cheers


edit:

it takes 4 minutes to boot withe the new uae :I
(about instant with old one)

Which reminds me ... does anybody know what's up with the OS 4 support for the Catweazle MK4 ?

I'm actually finding that this version runs slower than the old one. I have two uaerc files. One boots off a floppy and emulates an A500 with 1.3 roms and the other uses 2.0 roms.

I've been playing a game called Drip on the old version. On this current version it runs significantly slower while on the old version it ran at full speed.

I've switched back and forth a couple of times tonight and the slowdown is very noticable.
