Title: Screenmodes :)
Post by: carvedeye on March 05, 2013, 09:02:35 PM

Well i have been playing around with my screenmodes and i have to say that im very impressed with the 1280 x 512 Interlaced mode it is so crisp and clear, it makes me want to get a mediator and a voodoo setup even more :)

What is everyone elses thoughts?

I think that ANY screenmode that uses a graphics card in an Amiga makes a huge difference. I remember the day I got my Bvision.. :)

Well, Im still stuck with that, so I use 1024x768 mostly, but that is still as sharp, fast and flicker-free as it ever was.

All the resolutions I've tried with the indi aga mk2 has been crisp and clear. 1280 x 768 is my fav res at the moment :-)

well, you never said you had an indivision :) I guess that makes a difference, yes. I have one too but never tried that resolution stuff.

The indi is a amazing peice of hardware. Just need a config tool (Please Jens!!).

Also it has similar abilities to the Indi ECS so the driver that allows RTG on the ECS version should be possible to convert to the AGA mk2? ;-)

But Indivision relies on AGA and it never can be fast even though it makes crisper image. RTG on Amiga is crisp and FAST :). And not to forget colorfulness too. For example IBrowse scrolls web pages with no problem on my Mediator/Voodoo3 in 1600x1200x16bit resolution. Smooth and fast.

Once you go RTG is kinda hard to go back to AGA :)
