Recommended AGA Demos for 030@50mhz

[magnetic]

Hey guys like the title says.
I just got back into classic amiga and built an a1200 with ematrix 030@50mhz. I want to run AGA demoes native on this box what ones do you goes know that work or recommend to try? I love when people come over and I can hook my a1200 to the svideo on my 32in lcd and wow them with cool euro demos

Anything (pretty much) by TBL up to around 1995 when they started to go 060 only (Glow is probably the last one you can run at the right speed).

If you've got an FPU, you can play Jesus Christ Motocross which has the best GFX I saw out of my little 030 (shame about the music), you need to boot with no startup sequence to run this one.

If you start with no startup, you don't want to run WB (eg you want to stay in the shell).

Type something like 'Demos:' to get to your partition (depending on what you called it) then type 'cd [folder name]' to get to the right folder (dir will give you a listing), then just type the name of the demo you want to run.

When you want to go back to WB, just do a 3 finger salute.

loadwb
and the workbench should be hanging around in the background. endcli will kill the shell window.

Shame about the music?

Your kidding!! Music fit perfectly to the demo! Loved it!

for a 030 I'd "use" Thug Life, Relic, Closer, Crazy Sexy Cool, and Ride (on our enemies) for example.

I thought the music was fantastic, I've had enough of those typical demoscene music thingies, a punk rock soundtrack was just right
