====== What Amiga Emulators are available? ======


Note that whatever emulator you choose, you will also need a 'Kickstart ROM' for the model of Amiga you wish to emulate. The easiest legal way to get hold of a complete set (to emulate any Amiga) is to buy [[http://www.amigaforever.com|Amiga Forever]], which also includes many of the emulators listed below and a user-friendly front-end for WinUAE.

===== Windows PCs =====

    * **WinUAE** is by far the most widely-used Amiga emulator, and is still being actively maintained and developed. Download the latest version from: [[http://www.winuae.net|www.winuae.net]]. //NOTE: WinUAE 0.8.22R2 and newer will require DirectX 8.0 or newer - [[http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=2DA43D38-DB71-4C1B-BC6A-9B6652CD92A3|Link to DirectX]]//

    * **WinFellow** is an alternative emulator, especially suitable for older PCs. However, this is no longer updated and, unlike WinUAE, does not emulate AGA Amigas (A1200, A4000 or CD32). Homepage: [[http://fellow.sourceforge.net|fellow.sourceforge.net]]

    * **MESS** (Multiple Emulator Super System) also supports emulation of the Amiga 500 and 1000 - like WinFellow, it does not emulate AGA Amigas. Homepage [[http://www.mess.org|www.mess.org]]:

    * **Amigame** is created by the French team AmiphoneX, Amigame is developed to be easy to use and quick to setup, Amigame is a game interface (front end) that simplifies your maximum utilization of WinUAE. Homepage: [[http://www.amigame.fr|http://www.amigame.fr]] 

===== Linux / Unix =====

    * **UAE** is the original Amiga emulator by Bernd Schmidt, but has not been updated since 2002: [[http://www.amigaemulator.org|www.amigaemulator.org]]

    * Richard Drummond’s **E-UAE** incorporated some of the enhancements from WinUAE, but has not been updated since 2007: [[http://www.rcdrummond.net/uae|www.rcdrummond.net/uae]]

    * Mustafa "GnoStiC" Tufan develops **P-UAE**, which is a successor project to **E-UAE** (originally intended for the [[http://www.openpandora.org/|Pandora]]): [[http://github.com/GnoStiC/PUAE|P-UAE@github.com]]

    * Finally, it is possible to run **WinUAE** (see above) on Linux through **WINE**: [[http://www.winehq.org|www.winehq.org]]

===== Apple Mac =====

    * **E-UAE** (see above) is also available for Apple Mac: [[http://www.rcdrummond.net/uae|www.rcdrummond.net/uae]]
    * **P-UAE** is available for Macs, too: binaries are regularly posted [[http://www.ultimateamiga.com/| here]]
