Indivision AGA MK2 Config tool problems! (solved)

[NovaCoder]

Hmm have you played around with the offset to counter that? Also what happens if you open the preset menu and set overscan?

Seems you have the same problem I am having under SUPERPLUS, I have not yet figured out a way to fix that The the rest works for me now.

SuperPlus doesn't work with the latest cores unfortunately, it's a shame because it really is the best WB mode for AGA (HighGFX is a bit too much for AGA really).

Also about the black borders, the Indivision AGA doesn't do any hardware scaling so it's normally nicer to have black borders for games than to try and stretch a 4:3 display out to 16:9 on a modern display.
 
This is how it looks on my display (PAL 640x512 WB, the PAL 320x256 for the game).

I've attached the config that was used for this video if it helps...

I run a PAL 640x512 WB.

The downloaded file is saved as "attachment.php". Can you provide a better link, please?

Works fine for me using Chrome, what are you surfing with?

Doesn't work. The file is scrambled and not recognized by the AGA MK2 config tool program.

Try this sucker then....

The good thing about this config is that if you run your WB in PAL 640x512 you minimize screen switching (eg it doesn't just go black for half an hour when running a demo).

Both PAL and PAL Interlaced are set to use a 640x512 screen mode (which is exactly half of my monitor's native resolution of 1280x1024 for a perfect 1:2 scale).

Did this tool ever come out of beta?

That's a hard question to answer

Personally I'd say that it's no longer BETA.    The Config Tool could be more user-friendly but it does work (which is the main thing!).

The bigger deal for me is the lack of 'extra' features that this card was meant to deliver (eg. chunky modes, a 50hz mode and a v-sync option).    Another missing feature is native support for the awesome 800x600 SuperPlus mode.     It doesn't look like these missing 'extras' will be added to the Config Tool
