Maintainer of the project here. Let me see if I can help you get it running.

We do not distribute the files because old games are still under copyright, so we can only link you to a search for builds other people may have done. I’m sure you saw the message about that when clicking the link :)

Yes, Amiga emulators are legendarily unusable and hard to work with, unfortunately. FS-UAE is your best option unless you are willing to learn how WinUAE works. I plan to create a WinUAE setup to include in AmigaVision, so I bought my first Windows computer in 20+ years because I care about things being as easy as possible — although I can’t fix the emulator user experience more than to try to give you a default setup that just works.

The launcher is not necessary. You should open that file with the main FS-UAE app. This is probably why the rest of the steps did not work. Could you try that?

> Search FS-UAE/WinUAE AmigaVision > videos > none

There are plenty of videos on AmigaVision, but since the project originally was built and optimized for the MiSTer FPGA project, most of the videos cover that instead. There are a few videos in German/Portuguese/French if I remember correctly that use emulators.

As mentioned, emulator support is still newer, and since I just got my Windows computer, it has only been tested properly on Mac until now. So either you found a bug I am not aware of, or it’s just a matter of opening up the file with FS-UAE using the right click menu in Windows.

Let me know how it goes, and happy to help you get it running — I want to know if there are bugs too, of course! :)

> An amiga museum with all the games, artwork, coding technology, music technology etc. Perhaps an AI can be tasked to produce all of this soon. Youtube videos might be an engaging delivery mechanism. A physical museum too can be considered, perhaps as part of Computer History Museum and similar.

Sounds like you haven't been in touch with the Amiga scene in quite a while, if you think the above is something new. Perhaps Amiga / retro museums haven't been set up in your location, but there are heaps of them in Europe, for example. Youtube videos are a dime a dozen, just search 'amiga' on youtube and you will find literally hundreds of channels dedicated to the Amiga and/or Commodore in general. I subscribe to many of them already, and they all provide excellent in depth content for the Amiga, from hardware, to software, to games, to demos.

> AI coding might unlock mass creation of new software, games, demos, music etc. What was once conceived impossible will be very possible and likely abundant soon

Why would game writing / music creation / demos / software be "once conceived impossible"? Kids were doing the very thing in their bedrooms in the 80s and 90s, without AI. What would AI bring to the table nowadays that couldn't be done in the 80s/90s when the Amiga was popular?

People developing for the Amiga were putting their heart and soul into their creations. AI can't replicate that, and it definitely can't improve it, in any sense of the word.
