E-UAE vs Jammy

E-UAE emulates Amiga computers so users can run Amiga software on other platforms. Based on UAE and WinUAE, it aims to improve performance and features across host systems, and its listed changes include an emulation core merged from WinUAE 1.3.x. Supported Amiga models include 68000-based ECS, ECS with Fat Agnus, AGA, CDTV, CD32, 68020, and 68060. It handles ADF, DMS, FDI, and IPF disk images, including gzip- and ZIP-compressed images, and supports save states and hardware acceleration. Full use requires a Kickstart ROM image, which is not included; built-in ROM emulation may work with some old games. A desktop-window mouse feature synchronizes the Amiga pointer with the host pointer. An experimental OpenGL renderer is available through the SDL display backend, and uae-configuration can query or modify settings from within emulated AmigaOS. E-UAE is free open-source software under the GPL. It builds and runs on Linux, Mac OS X, Windows, Solaris, BeOS, AmigaOS and clones, among other systems, with feature support varying by host.

Jammy is a free C# Amiga emulator for Windows and Linux that aims to run Workbench, games, and demos. It lists support for A1000, A500, A500+, A600, A1200, A2000, A3000, A4000, and CD32 models, with OCS, ECS, and AGA emulation. It emulates components including the Copper, Blitter, CIA, sprites, playfields, and audio. Supported floppy image formats for reading include ADF, zipped ADF, ADZ, DMS, and RP9; ATA hard disks support reading and writing. Development tools include a debugger, disassembler, automated code analysis, and SQLite storage for disassemblies. JavaScript and Lua APIs can run code on breakpoints, and a web API supports custom user interfaces. The releases page lists Windows Alpha and Linux Alpha release 0.0.30. The project reports DMA timing problems, incomplete cycle accuracy, poor emulation of CPUs above 7 MHz, and software that does not yet work. CD32 CD-ROM and NVRAM do not work, the IPF floppy reader is broken, and there is no ARM build. Linux lacks debugging interfaces, and its scripting, web, and database APIs need more work.
