As I recall, there was support for RTG in the display emulation but if you can't get that working, I would imagine the best bet would be to use the P96 EVD (external video driver) under UAE. There was a version that supported P96 Picture-In-Picture (overlay) mode, IIRC.

Why not just use Basilisk II? It's many, many times faster to emulate it directly on windows than WinUAE. And if you use the SheepShaver version you can have PPC support (not even slow).

Maybe, maybe not. For m68k mac emulation it would probably come down to the performance of the PC version of Basilisk's m68k emulation versus UAE's since m68k Mac CPU emulation in Shapeshifter isn't an emulation at all, but more like virtualisation.

UAE's JIT has been pretty fine-tuned on x86.

Isn't Basilisk using the same JIT? just without custom chip emulation holding it back?


Dunno, is it? The custom chip emulation in UAE is hardly a problem when using an RTG screen, to be honest.
