Annotation of uae/docs/COMPATIBILITY, revision 1.1

1.1     ! root        1: Incomplete list of programs that work with UAE. If you have something to add,
        !             2: mail me.
        !             3: Every Kickstart version seems to work, provided it is not a 68020 only
        !             4: Kickstart, and that the image file isn't corrupted (of course).
        !             5: 
        !             6: The following programs were tested by me:
        !             7:  - Powerpacker 2.3b
        !             8:  - DME, DICE (compiles at least transdisk and transrom)
        !             9:  - Turrican I: Works 100% now, unlike in previous versions.
        !            10:    In world 3 (the vertically scrolling levels) they achieve multi-level
        !            11:    scrolling by means of _awful_ copper and sprite tricks. It works, but these
        !            12:    levels are tremendously slow.
        !            13:  - Katakis (also known as Denaris)
        !            14:  - Zork Zero
        !            15:  - Corruption, Fish
        !            16:  - Holiday Lemmings 1994 (always nice to watch them blow up)
        !            17:  - Champions of Krynn (including harddisk installation on the unixfs.device)
        !            18:  - AmigaCPE (my CPC emulator :-)
        !            19:  - SimCPM (CP/M emulator, ran some Infocom adventures with it)
        !            20:  - DMS 1.11
        !            21:  - Lots of demos
        !            22:  - TheA64Package
        !            23:  - AIBB 5.5 and AIBB 6.5. These work, but you need the "-S 3" option for
        !            24:    maximum sound hardware compatibility (or start AIBB with the "-b" switch).
        !            25:    Otherwise, the stupid beep when pressing gadgets doesn't work and the
        !            26:    program gets into an endless loop.
        !            27:    Oh yes, and the CPU is detected as running at InfMHz :)
        !            28:  - AmigaBasic
        !            29: 
        !            30: The following programs (among others) were tested by other people:

        !            32:    Arkanoid, Team, Vertical Mayhem, The Faery Tale Adventure, various

        !            46:  - Several packers (PP 4.0, LHA, PKAZIP). Some of these don't like the unixfs.
        !            47:  - MUI
        !            48:  - Brilliance
        !            49:  - Several Cloanto programs have been by Michael C. Battilana from Cloanto
        !            50:    Software: Personal Paint, ColorType, Personal Fonts Maker and Personal Write

        !            52:  - others
        !            53: 
        !            54: The following programs I tested don't work yet:
        !            55:  - Cybernoid 2 (copy protection problem, apparently)
        !            56:  - Some demos
        !            57:  
        !            58: The following programs tested by other people don't work (note that this
        !            59: list is fairly old, and may not be up to date. Please mail me if one of
        !            60: these programs work for you):
        !            61:  - Elite II (Frontier)
        !            62:  - Interceptor (works, but graphics are wrong)
        !            63:  - Stunt Car Racer (conflicting reports, here)
        !            64:  - Spherical Worlds
        !            65:  - NewZap (probs with writing)
        !            66:  - others
        !            67: 
        !            68: "Brokenness" notes
        !            69: ==================
        !            70: Some programs only work on some Amigas, or with some configurations of UAE.
        !            71: If you have information about more programs, please tell me about it, because
        !            72: this could be very helpful for other users, too.
        !            73: 
        !            74: Incompatible with more than 512K chipram:
        !            75:  - Silents "ICE" demo (characters missing in sinusscroll part with more chip)
        !            76:  
        !            77: Requires exception 3 and is therefore incompatible with 68020+ CPUs:
        !            78:  - Katakis (Denaris)
        !            79:  
        !            80: Requires slow memory (-s option), even if there's plenty other memory:
        !            81:  - Silents "Global Trash" demo
        !            82:  - Anarchy "Seeing is Believing" demo
        !            83:  - Andromeda "Decaying Paradise" demo
        !            84: 
        !            85: Requires slow CPU:
        !            86:  - Silents "Hardwired" demo (times multiplication instructions and refuses to
        !            87:    work if they are too fast)
        !            88:  - Andromeda "Multica" demo (directly processes blitter output without
        !            89:    waiting for the blitter)
        !            90:  - Turrican I: Only the "Rainbow Arts" intro, it will abort too early and
        !            91:    continue loading if the CPU is faster than a 68000. Otherwise fine.
