Agnus and Denise Rebuild

[trekiej]

If Agnus and Denise were remade to be chunky instead of planar, what other conversions would have to be made?

The first thing comes to mind is the exec.  Would it have to be made compatable or would the chip have the same appearance as the original chip?

Just rambling.  :-D

@ bloodline:
I guess I am currios how that is seen by the system.
Would that include a change in *.device?

@ bloodline:
Sounds like banging the hardware would be a big problem too.
I just trying to feed my new amiga adiction. :-D

I guess the Akiko ( I believe that is the name )chip in the CD32 had the right idea.

One thing I would like to do with a new Denise and DAC is allow my Amiga 500 to work with 31.5khz without a flicker fixer.  How internal timing would be affected is beyond me.

The next is a chunky mode for better speed.

I wonder if a reworked paula could mean 1.44 mb pc floppy drives.

If Natami could become some replacement chip for older machines or even a replacement  board it would be fine with me too.
Here is a crazy idea, replace the Kickstart with Aros Kick. and redo the Denise.  I do not know how that will turn out :-D

Natami it is then.

@ zac67:
I wonder if a 1200 or 4000 be a better target then.  I could look it up but off the top of my head think that they would have 32 bit busses.

In the spirit of South Park.  PeeCee's are bad M'kay.

Zorro being autoconfig made the Amiga a Cadillac in its day.
