Welcome to the AmigaLive project!
Currently supporting the Amiga GameNight tournaments
AmigaLive is a front-end application which utilizes the netplay capabilities of the FS-UAE emulator, and makes it really simple to have 2 or more players connect and play the same Amiga game, or use the same software as if sharing the same Amiga computer hardware and peripherals.
FS-UAE is the friendliest Amiga emulator, which integrates the power of WinUAE emulation code and takes it a step further with the added netplay code and capability to run natively on all major platforms, such as Windows, Mac OS-X and Linux.
*This project offers an unofficial distribution of the FS-UAE software and may use beta features and functions, therefore please do not send bug reports to the developer (Frode Solheim) regarding AmigaLive issues.
Requirements:
- Download the latest AmigaLive bundle
(FS-UAE is included. Everyone needs to have the same major version) - A modern computer running a 64-bit OS
(Linux, Mac OS-X or Windows) - High speed/low latency internet connection
(Minimum upload/download speed of a ISDN line 128kbs. Wi-Fi works, but is not recommended as dropped packets double or triple the latency) - Any input device: Joystick, GamePad, Keyboard or Mouse.
A joystick can also be emulated by using different keyboard layouts, the default keys are: cursor keys and right Ctrl as fire 1 button
(A digital 2 button Joystick or an additional GamePad is recommended)
Notes:
- There are single player games available in the “Single Player”ย game list list, but it is always more fun playing with other people (There are also games for up to 8 players simultaneous).
- Looking for other players? We welcome you to join us on the AmigaLive Discord and give us a shout.
Dont forget to mention your region to other players, as that plays a major role in latency demanding games.
You can notify whoever is available by using the @here command in the Discord channels ๐ - There is an option which allows you to stream your gameplay to twitch.tv/amigaliveย
This option does not demand any extra streaming software or bandwidth usage, but enabling it allows the broadcast client to connect to your session as a spectator.
