ClassicWB GAEE
« on: April 30, 2013, 05:56:24 PM »
Hello ... again.
 
After sucessful ide68k and ClassicWB GAEE installation, more questions arise.
 
To really cut the long story short ... does anyone know why is my Amiga booting into this ... bluish kind of palette
 

 
when it should instead boot into Green Amiga Alien one.
 
like this
 

 
At startup it's blue. The moment I click workbench->prefs->palette, everything turns green, even before I click on "USE" or "SAVE".
 
Thanks in advance.
 
Oh, yeah. Clicking the "USE" or "SAVE" button accomplishes nothing. The Workbench is green until next boot. Then it's blue again.

Er, yes. I'm using 3.1 rom. Ah, I see. I decided to install the wrong version of cwb. Man, of all the choices ... well, I guess I'll have to prep myself another card than. This time with the right version of Classic WB. Thanks.

You're right FitzSteve. I ran the current setup under winuae, this time choosing A600 as the target machine, and yes, all palette issues vanish. Darn ! But, is there a way to "make" this problem go away whilst still using 3.1 rom ? I checked out cwb 68k and although it is more advanced in many ways (I can set a custom image as a wb background in opposite to wb 2.1 which offers only colours or patterns for example), I kinda like the gaee version more. It has that nice app dock at the bottom and stuff. :)
 
So, any tweak/fix on this palette thingie that's been bothering me, perhaps ? Anyone ? Thanks.

Yes mfilos, you're right. I did choose the Alien green. But this is something to do with ROM(s), 3.1 vs 2.0x. If you take a closer look at the 1st picture, the icon colours are all messed up. That pinkish touch is not supposed to be there. When I take my card out of the real Amiga and hook it up in winuae as a hdd, but choose A600 (ks 2.05) as a target machine, everything is ... well, green. :)
 
And to answer to Mike at the same time, yes, i can choose whatever palettes/colours available under prefs, but they apply to the current boot only. When I reboot my machine, everything goes back to the (messed up icon colours) beggining. Hmm ...

I'm not having the real 2.05 ks. I' m having the real 3.1 (40.63) ks. If it was the other way around i wouldn' be having this problem at all. : )

Mfilos, help please. I walked thru your tutorial, did as described, got tmanager up and running but none of the apllications wont start. I've tried protracker and final copy II which both run when i start them manually, but not when i try and start them by clicking on the dock icon. Theres something called the startup method or simillar which can be shell, workbench etc., and  i tried em all but to no avail. In the command parameter i' ve put the correct path and at this point am not sure what to do next.
