uaerc config file for the Amiga 1200 AGA setup, based on 68020 CPU with 68881 FPU and v3.1 ROM. You can use a HDF (Hard Disk File) in the emulator as well if you want it to be a single file, but I prefer the folder setup as it gives greater flexibility to copy files to/from the various emulated systems on the X1000. ro (Read Only) stops changes being made to the drive from within the emulator. Using -1 as priority prevents it from being used to boot the Amiga in the emulator. Because work: is already used on the X1000, it is necessary to map the X1000 Work: drive in the emulation as work_: (or some other name) to avoid conflicts. Specifically, rw (Read/write), DH0: (Device Name), Apps: (Hard Disk Label), Work:Amiga2000 (X1000 Hard disk folder location), and 1 (Priority for booting in AmigaOS). The filesystem2=rw,DH0:Apps:Work:Amiga2000,1 line specifies the mapping of an Amiga Hard disk within the emulation to folder on the X1000 hard disk. Emulate my Amiga 2000HD AmigaOS v1.3 hard disk with original setup in 1990-1996! (In case you are wondering, this really is v1.3 - I am using a program called SimGen to display a 4 colour picture in the background and I changed the default font and drawers used in v1.3 as well):.I then used the Deneb USB card in my A4000T to connect a FAT32 USB hard disk which I used to copy all the data to a disk I could easily use to transfer to PC/MAC for WinUAE/E-UAE/Amiga Forever 2012, and also now for AmigaOS4!Īfter some configuration of multiple instances of RunInUae on the X1000 I can now run the following Classic Amiga configurations (I will explain the configs used later on): The 4000T has SCSI and IDE which made it the perfect machine for this. I transferred the hard disks from my Amiga 2000, Amiga 1200 and Amiga 4000 some years ago to my current Amiga 4000T by removing and mounting each of the SCSI/IDE hard disks on the Amiga 4000T and copying the data across.

This was disappointing for me, but perfects the 3D drivers support in the future will allow greater rendering speed for the emulator, and a smoothed appearance too, as per the emulators on PC and Mac. This included the migration of all the data from my various Classic Amigas to the X1000 to make it the complete Amiga.įortunately, with the X1000 I could get a long way towards this goal, although it is not a complete replacement for all the Classic Amigas, especially running high end 68060 programs like the AGA demos and games released after 1995 to today. One of my key goals when buying the AmigaOne X1000 was to replicate that experience and feeling I had with the classic Amigas on modern AmigaOS 4 based hardware. Of course, for most of my audience I am sure you already know all this!

By no means is this an exhaustive list - but I wanted to give a general feeling as to what to expect, especially from demos as little coverage to date has been given to demo performance on the X1000, and it is something close to my heart!įor all Amiga fans out there, I am sure you all have fantastic memories of using your Classic Amigas, whether they were Amiga 1000, 500, 1500/2000, 3000(T), 4000(T), 1200(T) or even CDTV and CD32 or even one of the Checkmate/Draco Amiga clones.įor me, the Classic Amiga era was wonderful - so many great games and applications, a great graphical OS which was so much fun to tinker with, and a computer that was the envy of all my friends in an era in the late 1980's and early to mid 1990's were PC's were DOS based with CGA/EGA (4 or 16 colours) or Windows For Workgroups 3.1x based, and Mac's were expensive, not good for gaming and mainly found in schools. In short, mainly I'm just wondering what you'd do with AmigaOS4.Today I wanted to review how things run on the X1000 when emulating Classic Amiga hardware. As a veteran of the last glory days of the PowerPC Macintosh, it makes me sad to see the PowerPC fade away. I wondered what else even still uses PowerPC today, AmigaOS4 is one of the last holdouts. I realized that with the new Nintendo Switch replacing the Wii U, Nintendo will no longer be a customer of the PowerPC.

Maybe I'm just morbidly curious, maybe people on here know about cool unknown computers still getting updates today.Īctually, I can think of one reason. I'm not even sure why I'm making this thread, I don't think I've ever had an inclination to check out Amiga world. Is it more popular in Europe? What can you do on AmigaOS4?

Here I wonder how such an obscure hardware and software platform continues to see support.

#Amiga emulator ppc mac update
I noticed that it had a new update as recent as last year. I hardly know anything about Amiga, much less the "modern" reincarnation that is AmigaOS4.
