sorry for this late reply - I had to fly to a uni lecture...

anyways, yes it bangs the hadware, although it can be made OS-friendly (BTW: the system is in the form of a shared library, but nothing stops anybody to write his own routines, thanks to the extensive documentation that can be found in the archives); yet, I don't have the time right now and, after all, it's not something really needed... who cares about AGA this days, besides AGA democoders (who will be quite happy with the current implementation)?
To have a glance at some of the features, check out also the TCS_demo (on Aminet, too): you may find interesting things like 2 indipendent, variably cross-faded, 256-color screens with some rotzoom effects.


Best regards,
saimo

I use CGFX3 on my 030 with AGA, theres a a patch on aminet that allows you to install the PPC AGA drivers then replace certian files with ones in the archive, and woo hoo, CGX on a 68k with AGA.

Whoa have to try that on my A1200-060!

Another great AGA-hack is MagicTV2, a software flickerfixer :-)  it really reduces the flicker in 640x512 but it only works in 16 or less colours. :-)

You'll get a little speed up doing this, but it is very little.

Can you post a link to this archive? I couldn't find it...

Hmm, I cant seem to find it any more.  I think someone off the amiga-active mailing list emailed it to me.  What I had consisted of 4 archives, 1) a pdf guide to installing it, 2) cgfx3 3)AGA-68k monitor driver for cgfx and 4)an app called cyberbugfix.

If you really want it, I burnt it to CD, it's at home somewhere(where my amiga is) and I'm at uni, but remind me in 2 weeks when I'm at home and I'll email it to you.

Hey!

Can't you put it somewhere more public? I'd like this one too :)
