Hi,

I purchased a CF card from ebay with WB Classic and programs and games on it.
It is installed using workbench 3.1
My question is, it has 256 color wallpaper and I dont know where that is set.
WBPattern only supports 16 colors so I'm guessing it is set somewhere else using a different program.
I have done my own Classic Workbench 3.1 install and would like to set 256 color wallpaper.
Please tell me now to set this and what program to use.

Thanks.
 
Classic WB uses Scalos, look through the Scalos menu for the Pattern options and you can change/set it in there.
 
Not all versions use Scalos so it depends which one. (Only Full/ADV & ADSP) the others do not. Note with 256 col screenmode it's going to be a little slow. I recommend checking out the 16 colour pallet by Cammy/Rebel is should be part of Classic Workbanch anyway and mfilos made a lot of really nice 16 colour backdrops you can maybe find somewhere?

Ah yes I forgot about Lite and OS3.9 versions. I agree with you though, if you don't have a graphics card or are using WinUAE I would stick to 16 colours.
