AMiNIMiga NEWS:
AMiNIMiga v212F for MiSTer/MiST/SiDi takeoff!
It’s finally time for a brand spanking new MiSTer release!
And this time i have added support for MiST and SiDi FPGA, they run essentially the same core as the MiSTer but differ in RTG driver, and how internet is accessed. AMiNIMiga will detect what system you are using on boot and use the correct drivers/setup!
This is AMiNIMiga v212F that was released a few months ago for the A500Mini but BETTER since its for FPGA systems, stability has gone through the roof in this release, its been running days on end on my MiSTer without any hickups. (Well some Amiga type memory crashes and whatnot ofcource)
Much has been added since the old MiSTer release, a load of new application MANY for internet use. More Games, More Music.
And to my potentially new userbase from MiST and SiDi communities:
Welcome aboard, AMiNIMiga is the biggest collection of Amiga retro software there is, the most complete Workbench distribution EVER released! SOOO much
Games/ demos/ emulators/ Mods/ SIDs/ sound samples(for tracking mods)/ cracktros/ intros/ applications/ hacks/ NSFW classic pictures.
AMiNIMiga is based on WB 3.1 with loads of patches/hacks to make it up to 1996 standards ;), there is over 100 Applications preinstalled ready to go, whatever you wish to do there is probably the right tool for it.
