No, MiniGL doesn't support AGA. It's a direct layer to Warp3D. The Heretic
2 demo runs on AGA because that's the software renderer, and that one is a
seperate entity, and doesn't use MiniGL...
MiniGL is completely relying on Warp3D, it uses Warp3D structures for it's
internal data. That's why it's so fast, and that's why it's hard to port
to anything else...
CU,
