[[File:ACE.png\|thumb\|German GUI - Main window]]'''ACE''' is a high quality [[Amstrad]] CPC/CPC+ emulator written by Philippe "[[OffseT\|OffseT]]" Rimauro.

			Also, PulkoMandy is maintaining a port for [https://www.haiku-os.org/ Haiku] which tries to match the features of the original version as much as possible.

	Also worth mentioning is [[ACE-DL]], a derivative version of ACE with its unique strengths and available for Windows, macOS and Linux (implementing an old school minimalist SDL GUI only, also with no scripting or external plugins support).

			ACE was coded from scratch, using a real CPC as a reference in order to provide one of the best Amstrad CPC emulator ever. Most of the games and demos for both CPC and CPC+ are working perfectly; the quality of the emulation is often superior to what the existing CPC emulators on PC/Windows can produce.
