AGA Copper sky in Scorpion Engine
Hi, I'm working on an AGA game, and planning to use a copper sky. However, no matter how I try, the sky colors are heavily downgraded. Does anyone know which settings I need to apply, so that the copper sky appears smooth (24 bit)..? I'm using a RGB png file in Scorpion Engine 2023 version.

There's a LOCT bit on bplcon3 register to set the fine resolution of the RGB palette.
Check with "ea" on winuae to see all colors & 24 bit |

Thanks for the reply. I'm not that technical, and honestly I've no idea what LOCT, bplcpon3 or fine palette resolution is. My png file is RGB, made from photoshop, 32x256 pixels. Could you specify which changes I would have to make to the PNG file, or which settings in Scorpion Engine?

My memory is sketchy at best on this BUT, I do not believe there is any AGA copper support in Scorpion, as yet. Therefore limit is 32 colour copper, I think .. actually do not quote me on this

Thanks, acidbottle. I've read that Scoropion Engine got AGA copper skies support in 2021, and I've seen an example: https://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?t=97450&page=26
I was hoping it was implemented in the 2023 version. Does anyone know how to make it work...? |

Hmm it may have been removed again to be honest for some reason or another. It will return at some point but if you can get onto discord and give earok a shout, or better yet the thread on Scorpion Engine on here, am sure he has a clear explanation of the possibilities.
