Cool, looking forward to trying this out. Is there a new build of UAE itself, though? E-UAE 0.8.29 is extremely old.

Short answer: no.

The 3.5 and 3.9 updates strictly consisted of updated material and contributions by 3rd party developers: Amiga International did not own the end product in any way whatsoever.

Big chunks of 3.5/3.9 came from the publisher Haage & Partner, who chose not to continue further product development after the 3.9 release. This is also part of the reason why there is none of the Haage & Partner developed code in the OS 4 release.


And most of the 3.5/3.5 pieces have been natively reimplemented or re-contributed by their authors for 4.x. So I think 3.1 is an appropriate baseline for a Classic environment for things that don't run properly with the integrated JIT/interpreted emulator.
