What's the best ClassicWB for my system?

Omolungo · 27 March 2010, 12:09

Hello,
I've ClassicWB Full installed on my A1200.
Now I've purchased an Indivision AGA I would change version of ClassicWB with a best viewing one.

Which one can you suggest me between the ADV and the ADVSP ClassicWB?

I don't want to lose in reactivity of the system.

Here you are my configuration:

A1200 with 3.1 Kickstart
Blizzard 1230 mkIV with FPU and 64 mb
Indivision AGA

Thanks

You will get a performance hit from running a higher resolution - that's unavoidable. It will still be very fast with the Blizzard.

It's up to you. The ADV is faster as it uses normal icons like FULL and is only a 16 colour screenmode. The ADVSP runs at 64 colours, so is slower, but has better chipram efficiency at high colour screenmodes due to Newicons being rendered in FASTRAM.

You can also use the 3.5 or 3.9 versions too, but these are slower than the ADV and ADVSP.

To be honest all will run great on your system. If speed is absolutely important, choose the ADV as drawers will render faster. However, if you use the ADVSP and reduce the screenmode colours to 16, it won't be that much different from the ADV but the Newicons might look a little bland.

I'll think about it.
Thanks

Edit: I think I'll install the ADV version, the icon set like me very much, and it is not too OS3.9 like

Btw, how I can visualize the cpu info I see on the photos? What's the program?

Use Dopus and copy disk.info from DH0 to DH1 and that should do the trick

It doesn't work, I can't see dh0 disk.info and if I try to copy the Amiga-HD.info contained in Icons to dh1, and change its name, the icon remain the same

Made

The problem was generated by the fact that the second partition didn't have an icon so I just created it
