For me it's been the disassembling of most of my original Amiga software in order to bug fix or improve upon it.

Using ReSource V6, you can with a lot of patience and time, disassemble all your Amiga software into source code. Then with even more patience and time you can study the source code make improvements,fix bugs or add new features. Then reassemble and you have a new & improved version of whatever.

Most of the software I use on a daily basis on my Amiga, eg: DirWork, SampleZ and almost all files in the C: dir have been improved upon, bug fixed or optimized in some way.

It took a long, long time to do, but it was well worth it in the end... :)

It was all part of a money making deal that Commodore had with a pharmaceutical company that manufactured epilepsy piils... :biglaugh:

Trying to get good (modern) video output is one of the top problems - even with a SD/FF!
Networking is another - unless you're lucky enough to have an old NIC.
Trying to use a wheel mouse should be a snap - but not on an Amiga (unless you're using an emulator on a Windows machine!).


I simply use the Cocolino mouse adapter, Freewheel and a cheap wireless mouse from Tescos, bobs your uncle, a scrolling mouse wheel on any Amiga... :)
