DARKAGE presents ECS-OK an ECS fixer for AGA-PPC Amigas! Now some old ECS programs will run again on your Amiga! This patch forces some Copper instructions to ECS settings, and it also tests twice the Blitter as it seems with PPC the famous bug in the first A1000 is present again... MCP may cause some problems, eg. if you have Blackborder enabled. 100% Assembler coding (Asmone rulez). Story: Version 0,6 - Nothing really new here... just the $Version and the icon added. Now it can be started from CLI or Icon, I forgot to check pr_CLI. Version 0,5 - Added a Chipset test! If pressing the joystick button while launching the prog, a window will open with the current Chipset. It'll remain until you press joystick. If you have OCS-ECS, nothing will happen then. Ofcourse the fix it's for AGA users. Version 0,4 - blitter fixed! Made 2 fixes for the blitter, one for Waitblit instructions (-$e4) and one for hardware blitter interrupt (6th bit of $dff002). Now games with blitter tricks works perfectly. Version 0,3 - now it runs heavily into your system. Put it in a batch file just before the executable file of your game/program! The screen may look corrupted on AGA; it isn't really, it just fix any ECS screen in multitasking (try Monkey Island). Version 0,2 - fixed that bug with MCP, still some ECS things not emulated! Another bug removed, it corrupted stack pointer when setting up the correct $1fc(a6) valour. Version 0,1 - first assembled version, caused a returncode guru (MCP conflict). Future: I'll try to adapt it to fix every OCS/ECS prod/game; I think the only thing to do yet it's the right setting of $dff1fc in multitasking. Sometime it doesn't work properly, causing a corrupted screen (like the Wb screen). Author: I'll be happy if you contact me! Feel free to write comments, suggestions, etc. I also like help! My knowledge of OS it's very small, but I like to improve myself, so I'm looking for Docs and Asm sources. Everybody will receive an answer, by snail-mail or e-mail! Thankyou in advance!

I think Amiga world really needs this program! (ehm... Run500 from JP Fabre it's muuuuch better) :)) But I'm having so much fun coding it instead of making demos or preparing my exams! Enjoy freeware progs! Thanks to: Nunnari Fabrizio (Voodoo Chile/Degeneration) for the help setting the $VER: we never stop learning, eh? :) Fabrizio Bartoloni (Lanch/Darkage) for the very nice 4cols icon: it's perfect!
