Basically to speed up Nova's port of BOOM...


I think you're gonna be very dissapointed if you think it speeds things up.
The AGA1200 is a Scandoubler Flickerfixer. It doubles the horizontal frequency of 15 kHz screen modes, so that you can use a "modern" PC monitor (CRT, LCD or TFT). It doesn't work like an accelerator/turbocard.

Thats not entirely true....

You'll get substantial speed increase(over 100%) by switching from multisync mode to interlace in things like workbench and shapeshifter.  Interlace mode did not work well with my Dell 2320 monitor I was using.


The original poster was talking about using it to speed up the game BOOM.
He didn't mention either shapeshifter or workbench.
To speed up games like Doom/Boom you definatly need an real 040/060 accelerator.
