So I recently was trying to do some photo manipulation and couldn't find a program that would work properly in RTG screen resolutions above 8-bit color depth.  I tried out Personal Paint 7.1, and it would only let me select the 8-bit color depth.  Even then it crashed.

Deluxe Paint crashes in RTG as well, at least it did last time I tried it.

Any suggestions?

Dpaint does not really support rtg well. I think it can work in lower Rez modes, but sill has chipram requirements.

You might try TVpaint. It requires 16bit RTG

Deluxe paint will work in 8 bit RTG modes with Cybergraphics but not Picasso96. The best version is 5.2. 5.0 has a bug in the airbrush.

I remember that you needed as much free chip ram(if not more) as the size of the screen even with RTG so I could never get it to go higher than like 640x480 on my 2000. I think it did a little better on my old 1200T with Voodoo but was still flaky.
