@Deremon - Hi all,
I've a preview of what is brewing under the hood Smile

finger crossed!


Looks great! Is this for 64 bit, 32 bit or both? Also, does this one have a JIT?

Cheers,
Nigel.

Amiberry is not designed to work on 32bit unfortunately but we have janus-uae for that (also JIT on janus works well on 32bit)
Yes it has JIT although on hosted it does not work very well, it behave very strange, but on native it seems to work, more tests are needed it's like a "beta" at the moment

I use Janus every day at work (principally for PageStream and FinalCalc) so if you'd like someone to beta test in 64 bit native I'd happily give it a go.

I added the following to the FBNeo GUI:
- a window for editing ROM paths
- a window with custom Zune preferences (which, unfortunately, is a bit glitchy in Zune itself)

What kind of problems do you encounter with Zune preferences?

Okay, regarding issue 145, it seems that the problem has disappeared with the latest test build from 19-09-2025.
Needs to be tested more thoroughly!

Thanks, retrofaza. How do you save a keyboard layout? I can't see the “Save” option in the menu!

I've created some icons in the AROS One style; I've attached the file!

When you change something in the settings and exit (Backspace), a prompt will appear asking if you want to save.

But I can see there’s a bug if you try to set the controls to the arrow keys. Thanks for testing it- I wouldn’t have noticed otherwise.

I’ll try to fix the arrow keys today.

I've uploaded the updated Apotris file to the archives.

Fixed the arrow key assignments for controls.
Added on-screen hints for controls in the menu (only if a gamepad isn't connected)

I wanted to configure the arrow keys, but when I go into the menu to change the keyboard settings, the Backspace key no longer works to save the changes!

So the Backspace key isn't working at all for you? You can't exit any of the menus?

It works fine on the main menu at first, but when I go into the sub-menus, it stops working.

1. Does this happen in all submenus, or only in Settings - Controls?
2. Do you have a controller connected, or do you connect it during gameplay?

When you access the submenus listed below, you cannot save your progress or return to the main menu. No gameplay is used.

@AMIGASYSTEM

Unfortunately, I can't reproduce this bug on my end (I've tested it on various computers, on QEMU, on VirtualBox, and in a hosted environment - it works fine everywhere).

But we’ll try to do something anyway - test this binary and let me know if anything changes for you:

Even with this new executable, nothing changes, I'm still using VMware!
