Calling all Emulators: WinUAE 1.3.3 WIP just released

[Piru]

and maybe when clone-a is finished, we might be able to install a pci card or something and use the chipset too!

Not with UAE. The hw emulation is too tightly integrated to be possible to offload to some PCI card.

And it's quite pointless anyway, any 5 year old PC can emulate the chipset faster than some PCI card... :-)

@keropi

emulation can never reach the feel of the real thing...

So why are you dreaming about UAE + PCI card merge? PCI card chipset wouldn't make it any more "real thing".

[Piru]

This would not be the case if you had some chips with the sole purpose of emulating the amiga

Only if the emulation would be 100% independent of the host, and then there would be no need for UAE in the first place.

If software is involved in any way, there are bound to be differences compared to original.

with a pass-through vga adapter with overlay gfx (like old 3dfx cards, or dvd decoder cards)

With todays high frequencies that wouldn't be too easy, and it would also need to support DVI.

Why?

It wouldn't have anything to do with UAE.
