Short: Emplant Macintosh update. FULL UPDATE Author: Utilities Unlimited International Inc. Uploader: typo@netaxs.com (Michael Perbix) Type: misc/emu Changes to V5.2 (02/11/95) -------------------------------------------------------------------------- * Fixed problem with MAC 800K disks being formatted using the AMIA unit. If a disk was not already MAC formatted, the initialization (format) would fail the first time. * Fixed a problem with START AND ICONIFY. If a error of some kind happened during the initialization, the screen was not re-opened, and windows were trying to open on a NULL screen... resulting in a crash. * Corrected (finally) the problem with EC030 systems (actually, having no FPU apparently is enough) working with RsrvMemV. We have now renamed RsrvMemV to be just plain RsrvMem, and we will maintain this name for now on. * New empdisc.device allows for more room to edit controlling device's name. * Corrected a bug that would cause the MEMORY SETUP screen to hang if you did not have enough memory in your system when you toggled the last of the any of the four gadgets for memory types. * Added the ability to flip screen with the depth arrange gadget or quit the program while in a sub-menu. * Removed sybil.library dependancy. Some of the library calls being made to this library have been moved to jam.library to reduce system overhead. * New ConverterII program (required due to getting rid of sybil.library) * Added Cybergraphics video driver. This video driver is very unique. First of all, it requires the Cybergraphics software (the shareware or registered versions), and a video board supported by the Cybergraphics software (currently - Picasso, EGS Spectrum, and Piccolo). This driver will work with ALL of the above video boards, and ANY other video board that gets supported by the Cybergraphics system. Basically, one driver fits all... This video driver is a 256 color-only (direct access). This is the first driver that we have had, that can be variable resolutions AND direct access. If you go to the MONITORS Control Panel (MAC side) and click on OPTIONS, you will see all of the available resolutions for your video board. Some of the resolutions may not be available, depending on if you have the mode information (setup with your video board software and Cybergraphics system). The following resolutions are available, *if* the video board is setup to handle the resolution (if not, it will not be shown in the list of available resolutions): * 512x342 - 13" Monitor Standard 640x480 - 14" Monitor Standard * 768x576 - 15" Monitor Standard (NTSC video mode) * 832x624 - 16" Monitor Standard 1024x768 - 17" Monitor Standard 1152x900 - 19" Monitor Standard 1280x1024 - 21" Monitor Standard 1600x1200 - 25" Monitor Standard * = size not supported in shareware version You must RESTART the MAC (from the pull-down menu) in order for the new screen resolution to take affect (or have an extension that will let you immediately change resolutions). BUGS: The Cybergraphics system allows Intuition to open the screen mode and then frees chip memory, replacing it with fast memory. If you do not have enough chip memory, the OpenScreen() will fail, but the MAC will think it is open (resulting in no visable screen at all!). So.. if you have only 1 meg of chip memory in your machine, it is likely that your resolutions will be limited. We are hoping that Frank and Thomas will find a way to correct this problem. DisplayAlert() crashes the Cybergraphics system (40.36 at least), so if you install the new version of the emulation and do not reboot your system before attempting to use the new emulation, a DisplayAlert() warning you about missing libraries will cause the machine to crash (this will definately reboot your Amiga). Note from Jim Drew: "I highly recommend that EMPLANT customers use the Cybergraphics system. Frank and Thomas have done an outstanding job with this package and I encourage you to register the shareware version to keep this software in development. The Cybergraphics system is fast, system friendly, and most importantly, a step in the right direction to provide real RTG support... something that the Amiga has needed for a long time. Owners of EGS boards rejoice! No longer are you stuck with slow WB emulation, and non-standard displays. Due to compatibility problems from version to version of the EGS software, we are dropping future support of the standard EGS software package in favor of the Cybergraphics system. We know that once you try the Cybergraphics system with your EGS compatible board, you will not switch back!" ============================= Archive contents ============================= Original
