xfact0r's UAE Exploits

These are my projects. Most of them were a good idea at the time. UAE is truly an excellent piece of software, and this page is here to prove its functionality as well as versatility. I have spent countless hours on this stuff, and I hope you find this useful.

Well at least its good enough to kill a couple of hours when you are bored.

Hardware Tests

Name Description
DSS8
(Audio Digitizer)

Everything appears to work until 'digitize' is selected. Then UAE crashes and makes funny noises. I have emailed a few hardware gurus about this and the concensus is the same- the PC parallel port is wired in a different way than the Amiga's. No emulation can solve this problem. On a side note - this is the same reason why an Amiga user cant use a parallel zip drive on a standard Amiga parallel port.
AFR
(Project to make .ADFs on a PC)

I am in the process of building this.

Alcuin

 Usable - problem is I don't know how to work these crazy calculators

Yes

AmigaVGB

 Too slow to play. The screenshot took like 1.5mins just till it came up :)

Yes

darkNES
(Nintendo)

 Too slow to use. Less than 1fps. Games start though.

Yes

Frodo
(Commodore 64)

Very slow. Not surprising though, I have heard its slow on a real Amiga too.

Yes

ShapeShifter
(Macintosh II)

 Black and White mode is very usable. Color is not useable at all.

Look at the ShapeShifter Page

Fusion
(Macintosh II)

 It reportedly runs, I have been unsucessful so far...
