monochrome monitor mode (green, amber, white) in ao486 core

[suww37]

Please support monochrome monitor mode(green, amber, white) in ao486 core. And I would like to be able to select cga and hercules video cards. Is it possible?

Someone would have to create an entirely new virtual video card to emulate a Hercules Monochrome adapter. That would be a lot of work for relatively limited gains, as by the 486-33 era (the major focus for AO486), there weren't many of those left.

DOSBox supports Hercules mode, so you do have a fallback if nobody ever does the card for the Mister.

Heecules is a better fit for the upcoming 186 core. It already has a proper CGA implementation, at least:

Agree, it makes much more sense to have the Hercules/MDA/CGA/TGA on a 8088 till 80286 core.
I've been hoping also since a while to have the Hercules card on AO486 but before I knew that the project Next186 is being adapted to the Mister.

To me the Next186 is really the missing link. I really cross my fingers to see it running on Mister.
