ECS Denise .... when ?

25 January 2009, 16:30

I never found "ECS Denise" chipset selected in WinUAE

I mean, trying different Amiga Models all chipset are used except this one

When this chipset is used ?

A3000
A500+ (not early models)
A600

ECS Denise is basically "useless". It has very limited superhires mode (1280 horizontal pixels), max 4 colors out of 64..

Borderblank support was also introduced in ECS Denise. Other new ECS Denise features are mainly for genlock stuff.

With models you listed chipset selected is actually Full ECS, which "includes" ECS Denise

It means that ECS Denise doesn't exist "alone" ?

Correct. Note that ECS Denise without ECS Agnus do work but superhires mode won't work correctly.

You take OCS A500, remove OCS Denise, replace it with ECS Denise. Now it exists in "real world".

You mean you had a Denise, and she was very much like shellfish. Möhöhö.

I think I did something special to make Tec vectors work (on a real A500) instead of showing blitted blocky stuff. Was that related to Denise? I seem to recall that the original Hunt for 7th October failed either on OCS or ECS A500s.
