![]() ![]() On top of being plain fun, writing assembly on Amiga teaches programming concepts that are usually hidden by higher-level languages and modern operating systems. Although the hardware architecture is quite simple, it has some computer system design features that are still in use in modern environments as well such as DMA and interrupts. This makes learning low-level programming on it faster than on more complex environments. Amiga as an environment is much simpler than (for instance) modern PCs. Luckily later when I was studying at the uni, I managed to bargain one fine Amiga 500 specimen from the flea market at an affordable price of 20 euros.Īlthough Amiga as such is not that useful a platform to know these days, learning how to write programs for it can be very educational. Back in Amiga’s golden era (late 80’s and early 90’s) I never had the chance to try this out since despite my relentless whining my parents wouldn’t get me one. ![]() The 30th anniversary of Amiga inspired me to dig into Amiga programming. If you’re reading this, you might be one of us. uae4arm -f%ROM%' Point attention to the floppy image extension (case-insensitive).zip For game with multiple disks rename them in this way: Game bla bla bla (Disk 1 of N).adf Game bla bla bla (Disk 2 of N).adf.Updated May 10, 2021: Hey there friend! This ever-green blog is gold – just like reaktorians. Also follow these steps: sudo nano /etc/emulationstation/essystems.cfg and edit the tag for 'amiga' emulator in this way.sh.uae.SH.UAE Then sudo nano /opt/retropie/configs/amiga/emulators.cfg and edit the line in this way: uae4arm = 'pushd /opt/retropie/emulators/uae4arm/. ![]() For default behavior emulator is searching for kickstart 2.04 in /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/amiga/ renamed in 'kick20.rom', so you have to rename your kickstart or edit 'config.uae'. AGCC.sh uses the 'config.uae' file in order to create games configuration and (if you want) you can edit it. Download the correct configuration file from previous link then rename it in 'config.uae' and copy it, together with 'AGCC.sh' (also download this from previous link), on Raspberry Pi. Launching games directly from EmulationStation Script for creating configuration files Here you will find a script, and the necessary configuration files according to different version of UAE4arm, for creating game configuration file: On EmulationStation, AMIGA, open '+Start UAE4Arm' and save a profile with random name then open the file and check the number in the parameter 'configversion'. ![]() Without overclocking some games do not run at full speed. ![]()
