PSPUAE 0.72 Released: Amiga Emulator Updated

greg | August 14, 2008

Amiga advocate and respected PSPUAE beta tester, Raventyr, just sent word concerning the team’s latest release — the Ubiquitous Amiga Emulator version 0.72.

Released by FOL and Chilly Willy; PSPUAE 0.72 aims to gain extra speed while correcting a few audio-related issues. And of course 0.72 packs other bug fixes as well.

PSPUAE 0.72 changes:

  • Dumped all sound bar stereo, in an attempt to gain speed
  • Corrected Makefile error, which lost us some speed
  • Add CYCLE_UNIT as option, setting is either 512 (Normal) or 256 (Turbo)
  • Add Chipset CYCLE_UNIT as a hidden auto switch option, that switches with CPU CYCLE_UNIT option
  • Fixed screen going off center when switching off auto zoom and when selecting 4:3
  • Add lock for new CPU option, stops accidentally pressing option and invoking a hard reset
  • Add config option checking to check cycle_unit, screen position, cpu lock and sound delay for old config files
  • Add SOUND_DELAY option, this allows us to switch between 1 and 9 ms. (9 ms does speed things up, but causes sound to breakup a little)
  • Add Hard Reset to Main Menu
  • Add Hard Reset when PSPUAE hits “Fetch Error” (stops fetch crash/loop if Cycles set wrong after loading config)
  • Altered Cycle Turbo, CPU Chipset timing to higher value (only when using Turbo Cycles)
  • Dumped Sound Optimize as it did very little and caused crash
  • Fix Audio Event time
  • Fix Audio delay (FOL, added this as an option, so a few more FPS could be gained at the expense of the audio quality).
  • Fix Home Button Exit crash, if you were in PSPUAE menu.
  • When cycle unit is changed, pspuae will hard reset instantly
  • If KickStart 1.3 is not found it will look for any other kickstart, with the following name format, KICK205, KICK30 etc etc. If none are found, PSPUAE will exit to PSP XMB

Google, Wikipedia. Two things you could’ve checked before you went sprouting your ignorance.

OMG James Pond… I’ve never really been an Amiga player but I played the SNES game Super James Pond. OMFG… I hope those developers burn in hell for raising up such crap into the world! X_X

amiga has some of the best games writen and those games were exclusive to amiga only,later on some of those games were ported to systems such as snes,PC and megadrive.

top games would be …

cannon fodder
syndicate
ufo enemy unknown
chaos engine
lemmins
the settlers
and more ……

theres loads of great games that were best converted on amiga like flashback,another world and so on.

theres thousands of games on the amiga and theres easily room for amiga on psp with the top 40 games,lots of fun to be had.

i hope this emu becomes full speed,prolly the most technical emulator on the psp that has potential to be fully emulated at full speed.

Do you have the kickrom in the correct place and named correctly?

Are you using the correct version? for your PSP?

Also, if you have certain plugins runnning in recovery, that might be causing problem.

has anyone got Dreamweb to work on this, never could get it working, would love to play the Amiga version

Thought DreamWeb was AGA. PSPUAE doesnt support AGA, doubt it will, as most of the AGA code has been removed, butchered.

there is a non AGA version, I read somewhere someone got it working but I haven’t managed to yet :(

You could try requesing a savestate (RISS) of the game. This way it will come preconfigured and no need for adf changing.

Someone needs to work out how to hardware mod the PSP to attach an Amiga joystick and USB mouse!
