Requirements:
You will need a RiscPC with at least 12MB Ram, 1MB VRam is recommended.
Installation:
At first you should update your mode definition file with some suitable
modes, that provide 800*288 and 400*288 pixel video modes. You can find
them in the Modes directory. If you don't like this, you must edit the
Defaul file in !UAE and the configuration files in the Config directory
to use an other suitable mode, such as 800*600 or 768*288 pixels.
Second you need to copy the CallASWI-Module to your !System, if you
don't have RiscOS 3.7.
Wimp Interface:
Try to use the RiscOS online help !Info/!Help. That should answer nearly
all questions about windows and icons.
You can use the Wimp Interface to customize UAE's configuraton. In the menu
"Config" you can change a lot of things, buit they will not take any effect
before you reset the Emulator. As you certainly see, you can also save the
current configuration. Configuration files can also easily altered in a
text editor. To load a configuration file simply drag it onto the icon.
In the menu "Change" you can change some things that take immediately
effect. Actually this are only the disk images.
By clicking on the icon you switch to start UAE or switch to UAE mode.
From UAE mode you can return to the desktop by pressing (and releasing!)
F12.
If some programs won't run, try to use UAE without sound.
Programs that currently don't run with sound are Turrican2 and SWIV.
Miscellanous:
The ADF directory is thought for the various disk images you might want to
use. They are simple Byte-for-byte copies of Amiga disks. You can find
them on several sites in the internet.
The Config Directory is for the setup files you want to use.
The Files directory is thought for files you want to access from inside the
Emulator. You can mount this directory on a Filesystem of the Amiga Emulator.
normdhry,regdhry: dhrystone test without/with register variables
transdis: a simple program to generate a disk image from a disk. Of course
you should use this on real Amigas :-)
transrom: the same as above for the Amiga rom
uaectrl, uae-cont: two programs which enable you to set some options from
inside the emulator
It is also recommended that you should read the various documentation in
Amiga:Docs.
