UAE delivers precise emulation drawing from key contributions by developers like Bernd Schmidt, Bernie Meyer, and Toni Wilen. This free-to-play PC core handles high resolution games and Workbench with flexible rendering options. Double Line mode doubles vertical rendering to display interlaced fields separately, pairing well with deinterlacing shaders despite visual quirks on scaled effects.
Single Line mode keeps original presentation intact for sharp results across high resolution content and shaders. It merges interlaced fields into one for smoother playback, though high resolution images may appear blocky or jittery. Retro emulation fans who tweak display modes for optimal output on classic Amiga software will get the most from its rendering choices.
UAE is based on the work of dozens of contributors including Bernd Schmidt (the original author and maintainer of UAE), Bernie Meyer (the author of the x86 JIT compiler), Toni Wilen (the current maintainer of WinUAE), and many more.
Double Line mode, rendering will be doubled vertically. It is compatible with high resolution games and Workbench, but scaling shaders will look ugly. "Double Line" shows interlaced fields separately (weave) and is suited for deinterlacing shaders.
Single Line mode, rendering is presented as is. It delivers the best of both worlds, and looks great with high resolution games, Workbench and shaders. "Single Line" combines interlaced fields into one field (bob), which will make high resolution images blocky and jittery.
