Is there an easy way to use UAE on OS X?
« on: January 26, 2011, 06:35:34 PM »
WinUAE is so easy to use on a PC, but on OS X i believe u have to use stupid command line stuff to run it.

Is there like a WinUAE but for OS X which won't need any complicated setting up?

There is a GUI for it, if that's what you mean.

E-UAE for OS X is quite bad performance-wise though. Remember that you only get "full" performance from it when in fullscreen mode (F11-S). Windowed mode is horribly slow. But even fullscreen mode is very slow compared to WinUAE on the same hardware.

Look for E-UAE. It's the "WinUAE" for MacOS X. Download the Hi-Toro GUI interface for it. It works pretty good. If you pick up a copy of AMIGA Forever, it's on the disk and preconfigured. It works pretty good.

Or if you want WinUAE, simply run Parallels in Crystal mode and you'll be just fine.

This is how it looks:

Agreed 100%! I use the same on my PPC Mac Mini and it works great. For some reason I have a heck-uva-time with WinUAE which is why I use WinFellow on the PC (but no AGA support). Give a spin! You may like it.
