Plans
In their own words
Damisoft Amiga Emulator
Damisoft Amiga Emulator runs Amiga games in a web browser, with Windows, Linux, and macOS also listed as host platforms. To start, users select a Kickstart ROM and load at least one ADF disk image; Kickstart is not included. The quick start supports up to four ADF images in drives DF0–DF3. The emulator covers Amiga 500, 2000, 3000, and 4000/030 models, and OCS, ECS, and AGA chipsets. Listed floppy image formats are ADF, DMS, IMG, EXE, and SCP; HDF and VHD are supported for hard drive images. Advanced settings include the Amiga model, CPU, chipset, RAM, video, audio, ports, ROMs, floppy drives, and IDE media, with PAL or NTSC video options. A PC keyboard can control games, though key combinations differ by game. The maker’s games index lists 73 links, including folders, disk images, and ZIP archives. The maker says a fast computer is needed and that mobile or tablet frame rates may be too slow. Turbo is the fastest speed mode, but it is not always compatible. The listed plan is free.
UAE4ARM
UAE4ARM is a free Android port of an Amiga emulator. It supports AGA, OCS, and ECS Amiga models and reads ADF, ADZ, HDF, ISO, CUE, and RP9 disk images. Kickstart is not included. Audio support uses WinUAE’s paravirtual AHI driver for 16-bit sound through AHI. Graphics include RTG modes sized to the device screen and an option to preserve the 4:3 ratio. Input can use touch, on-screen controls, a Bluetooth mouse, or selectable joystick and cursor-key D-pad modes. File dialogs browse internal storage, SD cards, and readable USB volumes, including removable media connected through an OTG adapter. Save-state files and preview images stay together, and users can choose the save-state folder. Release notes identify version 1.0.5.5 as the latest release and add 16-bit AHI sound support. They also state that 32-bit Android devices are supported with JIT disabled; enabling JIT can freeze the emulator when returning to emulation. The project is GPL-2.0 licensed, free of charge, and provided without warranty.
