Don't forget, ScummVM AGA also supports VGA mode so that will bring another 30 odd games to the table ;)

I'm currently running my WB in MultiScan (while I await the IndivisionAGA Mrk2) and it looks pretty good.

Could I use a real Roland MT32 for sound? (I have one)

I'm waiting for a MIDI adapter to pop up for sale in the US.

I do have a usb MAUDIO Uno and a Subway adapter, but i have never tried that combo.

Poseidon docs says it supports simplemidi.class & camdusbmidi.class

My A1200 is only a 030-40mhz and my HDD only goes 900K/sec or so.

thanks.


Hiya,

Nope, I haven't bothered to code in any native MIDI support (too lazy).

Your HD rate is very slow, I'm getting about 4.5 MB/s out of my 1200.

Most of the older games (eg DOTT) should still run ok on your setup if you disable the MIDI music emulation and keep the playback rate at 8K.

Yep a special Amiga AGA version was released back in the 90's, check it out in action right here -> Full Throttle AGA


Apparently they also released Curse of Monkey Island for Amiga back in the day -> Cursed

Nah, they were just pc versions running on scummvm. I dont understand why people have a tendancy to twist the truth like that (not novacoder himself, but the people who tried to palm software off as an amiga version).


rvo_nl all you need to know -> ScummVM AGA ;)
