Keep in mind the PAL A1200 doesn't output a true NTSC signal.  
Changing to NTSC requires changing some components on the board to different frequency parts.  (I think Catherder mentioned having these in stock recently)
Time to move on.  Bye Amiga.org.  :(

@mr_a500

Why not put in a hardware PAL/NTSC switch and forget the software.  It's just a matter of wiring a SPDT switch to a pin of Agnus.

Doesn't your 1084 have enough adjustability to show the complete screen?  I never had a problem on my A500 + 1084S.

No matter what you do to an NTSC 1084s, You will never see the whole PAL picture......specifically the extreme ones.



Give me an example and I'll try it out.  (I no longer have the A500 but can use my A600).

If anyone can figure out a way to get Chaos Engine AGA to run in NTSC I will be stoked!  The game uses a NTSC sized screen but insists it use a PAL to run!  I don't get it.  Tried everything.  WHDLoad also does the same thing.


Try JST version!
