Only the 256color mode is supported.
Recommended refresh settings with 640*480 70ns screenmode (aga):
Amiga4000/030 : refresh3.
Turbo030 25mhz+ : refresh3 or maybe 2.
Turbo030 40mhz+ & Turbo040 : refresh2.
Amiga4000/040 : refresh2. (mmu version is strongly recommended)
If you wan't to maintain high graphics speed with 35nS screenmodes
like dblpal !hires! use the special 256->64 dithered mode.
Amiga mouse pointer option is recommended.
(due to slow reaction side effect of the ec drivers)
Use the version of the driver with the SAME "_refresh" EXTENSION AS THE
REFRESH SETTING you are using.
SPEED TIPS:
-----------
For gameplaying, except for getting a bigger window,
the driver also is faster with pal, euro36 and ntsc lores screenmodes.
(and dblpal 320*256, dblntsc 320*200 and multiscan 320*240 for vga monitor:s.)
(with any size you wan't on the mac screen)
Private experience, not necessarily accurate with all os:es/hardware/drivers :
Using the euro36 screenmode is a little bit faster than ntsc.
Using the pal screenmode is a little bit faster than euro36.
(maybe the ticks / second depends a bit on the monitor driver)
Making euro36 : the most wise choice using a highres laced 70ns mode.
pal : the most wise choice using a lores 140ns mode.
