Windows: Emu68 Imager 2.1.2
The Emu68 Imager enables PiStorm users to prepare an SD card with the Motorola 68K emulation Emu68 and a preconfigured AmigaOS 3.x installation under Windows. The latest changes include an extension of the components updated by its updater tool and support for the TCP/IP stack Miami in addition to Roadshow.
Emu68 provides proper WiFi access. Installation was tough, but I got decent help on the PiStorm Discord.
There are quite a few oldschool Amiga OCS/ECS demos that will run as intended, perfectly, smoothly only on base Amiga 1000, 500, 2000 systems with 68000 CPU -- unaccelerated. One example is TBL's Eon (2019) -- an incredible demo.
I've encountered a few games that fall into this category also.
Will these run properly with 68000-emulator accelerators such as the PiStorm? It emulates the 68000, but can it do so with 100% never-failing, cycle-exact precision when operating as a base, unaccelerated 68000 at 7.16/7.09 MHz?
The demos I speak of fail to run or run visibly broken with most accelerators, including my A2620 (14.32MHz 68020).
