WinFellow v0.5.7 released  January 2, 2018

Bug fixes:

• floppy code was updated to use a track limit > 80; it will output random data beyond track 80 - fixes Outrun/The Games: Summer Edition; also added missing checks for disabled drives, fixing Winter Olympics 94
• fixed a bug where unexpected pixel format flags besides RGB stopped DirectDraw initialization
• several bugs in the screenshot code were fixed; standalone screenshots were not saved correctly in D3D mode, and used with Amiga Forever raw screenshots were missing screen areas due to faulty initialization of the internal clipping areas
• fixed screen area mismatch when Amiga Forever region/size settings are both set to auto; auto clipping is still not supported

• 4560ac0 - Petter Schau , 2016-02-28: Added all clip config settings. +ini file, change window pos to signed. Clip mode "fixed" keeps the current values set in code. For now the GUI will use fixed clip and set the clip to max PAL values in automatic scale mode. Must find out how to present this in a UI. Also a problem with the window starting outside the desktop might be fixed by using signed coordinates in the ini-file.

WinFellow v0.5.4 10/03/2017

New features:

• re-designed display settings to make use of modern higher resolution displays more intuitive; instead of configuring a window resolution, scaling and overscan area can be configured automatically to create a window of the optimal size and scaling factor; both can also be configured manually to arrive at frequently window sizes
• support for the Direct3D 11 graphics API; this requires DirectX 11 to be installed
  • on Windows Vista, the platform update KB971644 should be installed, as it contains required updates to DirectX
  • the graphics card has to provide hardware acceleration for Direct3D
• ability to save screenshots to the pictures folder (hit < Print Screen > to trigger)
• support for automatic, as well as 3x and 4x scaling, which is useful for 4K/high DPI displays; for the best results, try leaving the scaling at automatic
• very basic serial port/UART emulation; nothing can be connected to the serial port; this is mostly used for serial debug logging (which is active only in debug builds of WinFellow), but the port is always being emulated

Bug Fixes:

•     improved frame timing to present frames in a more evenly paced manner
•     improvements to CIA timer handling
•     improvements to CPU instruction timing (TAS and PEA instructions)
•     fixed sound volume restoration during reset of Amiga session in Amiga Forever
•     improved error handling for DMS floppy image extraction
•     fixed minor memory leaks

What’s New in WinFellow 0.5.3 11/21/15

• Thanks for your interest in WinFellow. Compared to version 0.5.2 there are a number of changes in this build, with the most significant ones being:

New features:

• support for high DPI configurations, also when used together with Amiga Forever 2016
• support for the original Amiga 1000 boot process from Kickstart disk boot; configure the A1000 bootstrap ROM like any other ROM image for the feature to be automatically enabled
• support for keyboard-initiated reset - press Ctrl+Left Windows+Right Windows or Ctrl+Left Windows+Context Menu (as not all keyboards have a right Windows key) to initiate a reboot within an emulated session
• support for extended ROM images; this gives the ability to use the AROS boot ROM
• support for screenshots, clipping editor/live preview and scanlines in Amiga Forever

Changed functionality:

• WinFellow is now compiled using Visual Studio 2015
• the default configuration contains 512kB chip/bogo memory now and has the real-time clock active (Amiga 500 with A-501 expansion)
• the default configuration is now windowed and has LEDs active
• chip memory mirroring has been implemented for OCS chipsets; the change was required for compatibility reasons, as some titles rely on it
• * because of this change, chip memory is now limited to 512kB whenan OCS blitter has been configured; if you need to use more, please use the ECS Agnus blitter in your display configuration (it is an actual limitation of the OCS chipset)
• 2x mode in Amiga Forever now scales via DirectX instead of the internal draw modules (design change was necessary to enable live preview in 2x mode)

Bug fixes:

• implemented bogo memory mirroring for ECS chipset with 512kB chip/bogo memory (required by the demo Move any Mountain)
• fix for CIA timer logic (fixes the game Atomix)
• fixes for several CPU instructions:
  • ’020 bit-field instructions were re-implemented (fix for Lotus Esprit Turbo Challenge 96k)
  • ASL instruction’s overflow detection was improved
  • MULU flag check improved
• escape key special handling in Amiga Forever improved (some titles would not detect an escape key press before)

Please see the included file ChangeLog.txt for a full list of changes, including minor bug fixes which are not listed above.

WinFellow alpha v0.5.1 build 880

After several years of development, we are proud to announce the availability of a new, major update of WinFellow. There are a lot of changes and enhancements in version 0.5.1; Below is a summary of the changes:

• conversion of most of the former assembler code to C
• enhanced compatibility with many titles; the chipset interrupt handler was completely re-designed, and sound interrupt handling was changed as well, allowing execution of many titles that previously failed
• emulation of a battery backed real-time clock (Oki MSM 6242)
• support for 2 joysticks, usable simultaneously
• audio volume made controllable
• the LED overlays were changed to no longer be scaled or stretched, making them nicer to look at
• basic Cloanto Amiga Forever/RetroPlatform Player integration
• revamped debugger using a more modern GUI design
• ability to generate minidumps, which allows us to debug crashes that are reported to us
• updated PDF user guide
• update of project files to current Visual Studio (2012 Update 2 is used to compile the builds) and DirectX; the code can now be compiled using Visual Studio Express editions
• new versioning scheme, based on SVN revisions
