We are happy to announce that the latest version of AmigaVision is available!
AmigaVision is the ultimate Amiga games & demo scene setup for MiSTer & Pocket FPGAs + emulators — and Amiga 1200, 4000 & CD32.
✅ General Improvements
- Default chip setup now starts in PAL on MiSTer — we did not sufficiently test the NTSC change to AmigaVision 2024.10.10, which should (on paper) work, but in reality does not, since there are a lot of games and demos that bypass the software settings. So we reverted the change, sorry about that! We tested it before release, but unfortunately didn’t hit any of the edge cases at the time.
- Workbench is now 216 pixels (NTSC) or 270 pixels (PAL) tall — this ensures there are no black top/bottom borders in 1080p/4K, since those sizes integer scale cleanly into those resolutions.
- WHDLoad has been updated to version 19.1.
- Amiga 600HD setup now has access to
AmigaVision-Saves.hdf
in addition to the shared MiSTer drive. - Back navigation in the launcher re-enabled.
📺 RetroTink 4K Scaler Profiles for MiSTer
The RetroTink 4K is a 4K scaler that will take the native signal coming out of your console, computer or MiSTer, and scale it to 4K, with the ability to add processing to let it look like a CRT, and edge-to-edge rendering.
We have made a set of dedicated, preconfigured RetroTink 4K auto-configuring DV1 profiles for MiSTer — both for the Amiga, and for the majority of console and computer cores.
We couldn’t find a simple, good starting point for MiSTer setups or other setups that don’t use analog inputs, so we made some. Everyone’s preferences are of course different when it comes to scanlines and shadow masks and cropping, but at least this is a great starting point that you can modify to your personal taste.
If you have a RetroTink 4K, you can download the auto-configuring DV1 profiles from the Releases section, instructions on how to install are included.
📝 Note on Upgrading
As always, do a complete clean install when upgrading, including adding the new MiSTer.ini
settings if you are using that platform, as well as copying the config files.
This is EXTREMELY important in this release since a lot of file names and configurations have changed!
While this is a relatively straightforward update, we chose to make 2025 the cut-off point where the old “MegaAGS” naming scheme no longer exists on the file system (we are still waiting for the new artwork for the launcher, though 😅). Hence, it’s important to do a clean install of absolutely everything, including CD32, Amiga 500, and also the “Extras” setups (Amiga 500HD/600HD) if you use those.
Additionally,
- If you have an existing saves hard drive you want to keep, you need to rename it from
MegaAGS-Saves.hdf
toAmigaVision-Saves.hdf
- If you use an Analogue Pocket, pay special attention to the renaming steps you have to do to the two HDF files.
There is a dedicated section in the documentation on upgrading.

📺 2 Games Updated to Run in Correct NTSC 5:6 Pixel Aspect Ratio
The AmigaVision project cares obsessively about making sure NTSC & PAL scaling and pixel aspect ratios are correct! We have identified a few more games that should be rendered with the NTSC 5:6 Pixel Aspect Ratio:
- Wings of Death — The music here was running way too slow, and it’s also an Atari ST port (but still a great game! 😅), so the PAR should be 5:6. Order has been restored to the universe.
- Ultima VI — US game, was running in PAL for some reason. No more! The other Ultima games were already correctly configured.
📺 6 Games Updated to Run in Correct PAL Format
Additionally, there were some games that were erroneously configured to run in NTSC, this has been fixed. The following games now run in PAL, and have hand-tuned 5×PAL Dynamic Crop settings:
- 3001 O’Connor’s Fight
- 5th Gear
- Ikari Warriors
- Slayer
- Victory Road: The Pathway To Fear
- Zynaps
🔥 Demo Scene Productions
We have a lot of love for the — still active! — Amiga demo scene! We arranged a few demo parties ourselves back in the 90s, and are always looking for exciting demos we can add to AmigaVision.
This release adds the following demos & disk magazines to the AmigaVision launcher:
- Desire — Inside the Machine
- The Electronic Knights — Transhuman
“Inside the Machine” is especially recommended, with some excellent demo scene hardware trickery going on, along with a banging soundtrack!
Additionally, the Revision 2025 demo party recently concluded, and we have added the following trackloader demo to the Amiga 500 core:
- Lemon — 3D Demo 3 — The Last Drop
Worth your time! Great soundtrack from Virgill and also with a conversion of a later Jesper Kyd soundtrack.
🤝 Greetings
In traditional Amiga demo scene parlance, “greetings” are a way to express gratitude and admiration for other demo groups or for help they have contributed — this release has been helped very much by our testers and contributors:
- hitm4n — for continuing to contribute high resolution screenshots for the upcoming new launcher.
- rsn8887, bfbiii, rhester72 — for always ensuring that PAL and NTSC titles run with the correct settings.
- Iain McNulty — for database update nerdery.
- Sorgelig — for continuing to update the Amiga core.
- robinsonb5 — for chipping away at any core bugs and incompatibilities.
