Classic software & Amiga Emulators

[AmigaPixel]

Hi All,

I was wondering which classic graphic and other software work well with Amiga emulators? Does ImageFX work good with them? I have version 2.5 but plan on updating to the newest version. Also what games do well.Thanks

Ooops! wrong forum, I meant to post in software.

I know for a fact that these app's work 100% as they should:
(and even a bit faster than you'd expect)
 
ArtEffect V4
Deluxe Paint V (THANKS Thomas for pointing this out, how I've missed this app!)
PhotogenicsV1.2
PhotogenicsV5
 ===================================================
CandyFactory-Pro V1.03c bombs every time I use colourtextures!
(Both on a gfx-card setup, and on a standard Amiga setup)

I hope you'll find as much appreciation as I find
in some of those old gems, that still hold their own against
newer programs on other platforms!
 
D.S: I find it strange that nobody has brought an answer to this topic, seeing
       that there's more than a few Amiga-graphicians here :/

I have not been able to get those old pixelpunching programs work to
my satisfaction (ie DPaint3-5).

Which is not a problem of the emulator but of your config. DPaint only runs on an unpatched native Amiga display. If you emulate a graphics card it does not run in the same way as it does not run on a real Amiga with graphics card.

DPaint 5 works perfectly on WinUAE for me.

Generally every software works on the emulator even better than on the real machine. The advantage of the emulator is that you can easily adjust the emulated hardware to match the software requirements while on the real machine you are stuck with that one configuration. By tweaking the emulator's hardware configuration you can make almost every Amiga software run on the emulator while it possibly cannot be made to run on the one real Amiga you own.

Bye,
Thomas

Thanks again Thomas!
The palette and range-editor now works...
D.S: Do you have any tips or suggestions regarding CandyFactoryPro?
       Because I have tried with every possible set-up, including
       trying to match the specs. of my real Amiga where it works.
But it simply won't play ball!

I have ImageFX 4.5 and it works on emulators, haven't tried any earlier version but I guess 2.6 should work as well.

Thanks for the feed back, I look forward to trying it out. @voyager74 your right they are gems and do hold their own against new apps. I can't waitto get my hands on DPaint5 or 4.
