Workbench Builds.
Does anyone have a complete list of workbench builds people have done for emulators? Complete workbenches with add-ons etc (to add bling) or make it look and feel more like windows for instance without needing too high level of resources. Preferably running on a stock A1200 emulated on WinUAE.
I've tried a few but would like a complete list of other builds to try in HDF images or using ADF to install to a virual hard drive file on WinUAE. I've tried most of the ClassicWB ones and ones through a usergroup on Facebook by Zebs build (which is quite good), just wondering if there's better ones out there using true colour icons/backgrounds etc. Please list and link to the images to try and add a screenshot if possible. |

on stock A1200 it runs only Workbench 3.0/3.1 with very few add-ons. To see nice workbench you need RTG system, much Fast RAM and fast processors (68040/68060)
you can try AmigaSYS 4 or Amikit, but as said to have very good satisfaction you must have very fast Amiga or very fast emulated Amiga. Amigasys4 is totally free: https://www.amigasys.net/ Amikit is not more free: https://www.amikit.amiga.sk/store |

Got Amigasys4 working quite impressed with a lot of it and it works fine after updating WHDLoad to the latest version.
Seems to work quicker than the Zebs one I was using before even on the same spec emulated Amiga as that one. Any others to add to the list? |

You could try Amiga Game Selector. It's available for WinUAE, A500 Mini, Raspberry Pi, Retroarch/Mister, Amiga A1200/4000 and PiStorm32. An ECS/OCS version will be out in a few weeks as well.
https://www.amigagameselector.co.uk/ https://www.facebook.com/share/dfKx4kYjr6KTvg2f/ It comes with a very comprehensive WHDLoad game launcher as well. |

I have heard of AGS but actually i haven't understood what it is about. I thought it was something like booting directly in a game selection menu.
But it is in real a whole workbench? |

Actually both. You can get a game selection menu. But also boot into a Workbench. Quite nice actually.
