Title: Software you cant do without
Post by: morcar on February 17, 2008, 07:15:08 PM

Ok so i got an Amiga 600 and soon an Amiga 1200 with kickstart 3.1, OS3.9, hard drive and all the other bits, but what software weather it is games or apps shouldnt i be without.

What would you never do with out on your Amiga ?

WHDLoad <- lets you run games straight from the HDD that weren't even made for it, also fixes and patches some games for known bugs and incompatibilities with the hardware (not all of them of course but some). Absolutely the best thing ever to happen to my amigas games :-D

I don't know if you _have_ to pay for most of them to work but I did because it was worth it!

DiskMaster II.  For moving around files it is small, fast, and efficient.  I still have D Opus also but it's DMII that gets by far the most usage.

 Check this thread to improve your Amiga experience: link! (http://www.amiga.org/forums/showthread.php?t=27171)

 Besides that, I can not live without: MCP, Fblit, Visual Prefs, Birdie, WB_AllocFast, New Icons (in the 3.1 Workbench), Directory Opus 4.18 (I hate Magellan!) and Magic Menu II.

 And MUI3.8, of course!

DeliTracker - best visualization plugin ever!

I actually sold my Mediator LT4/V3 just because it could not show visualization plugins as fast as an AGA (or BPPC/CV64D) screen on the desktop :)
