UAE – UAE Amiga Emulator

UAE is a computer emulator which emulates the hardware of the Commodore Amiga range of computers.

A Commodore Amiga is a 16/32 bit computer system based on the Motorola 680×0 CPU and a few specially designed custom chips that provide very good graphics and sound capabilities.

For “proper” use of UAE, you need some version of the Kickstart ROM, and some OS running on top of this (most likely some version of the Amiga OS). However, there is a minimal free build-in Kickstart replacement, and at least some demo disks are reported to run with it.

Features include:

  • A 68000/010/020/040 CPU, optionally a 68881 FPU.
  • OCS, ECS and AGA Graphics Chipset (including sprite-playfield collisions).
  • Up to 2MB Chip RAM and up to 8MB Fast RAM, or 8MB Chip RAM without Fast RAM.
  • Up to 64MB Zorro III Fast RAM, independent of Chip RAM setting (68020+ only).
  • Up to 1MB Slow RAM, for extended compatibility with problem software.
  • Up to 8MB of graphics card memory, usable by software that supports Picasso 96 compatible graphics cards.
  • 4 x 3.5″ floppy disk drives (DF0:, DF1:, DF2: and DF3:). It’s not possible to read Amiga disks, so these are emulated with disk files.
  • A hard-disk: either a harddisk image file or part of the native filesystem.
  • Joystick support (with option of mapping joystick to numeric keypad).
  • Mouse support.
  • Ability to run in various screen modes (for better display quality or better speed).
  • Full stereo sound support, consisting of 4 x 8bit channels.
  • Simple parallel and serial port support.
  • State-saving, you can save the state of your emulated Amiga and continue later on.
