#Silver
Message #82253
Hey Nik, I just tried "Silver" at the slower speeds, and I like it better! All the way up to 3. What speed did you like best? Thank for looking at it, and letting me know! Problem with WINCIM. I have lost big chunks of some threads. If I reset…
Haven't had my coffee yet! (Missising?!) I forgot to put it in HEAT24.ZIP also.

Hi Jeff. Could you add the keyword KELLERMAN to HEAT25.ZIP? Thanks.
It's in the plans.

GEB is beatiful! How hard was it to do? How many usable letter combinations did you find? Ed K
Oh, I forgot there is DeLuxe Paint for the Amiga. It is way more advanced than the PC program. Never seen the Amiga program personally. That may be what you where referring to. I believe the Amiga version is much more popular than the PC version.
I knew I should not have started that. Couldn't pass it up! Now, me need watch also. Maycanbe Gramtik be keeping I outside trouble!

But, I was not referring to DeLuxe Paint Animator (I have and use DeLuxe Paint Animator also. It is no longer being upgraded), I was referring to DeLuxe Paint Enhanced II. "Just-a-drawing-program" (as far as Electronic Arts is concerned). I own a 1989-vintage copy. I used it for "Space Tunnel."…
OK, good description, I am getting the idea! If this project takes off, I'll start reading on the subject, and become a 3D renderer, so that I see what is needed directly. Is there a need for STILL textues. I haven't actually looked at them yet, and I don't think…
#Problems Posting Message
Message #81912
Nik, I just got a mail message, addressed to SYSOP Ed Kellerman!. Flattering! The person was having problems posting messages. I sent you the message by E-MAIL, I did not have approval to place his message in the forum from him, and did not know if you guys had some…
Martin, ( Gary) < Also the gold color cycling was lovely. You've inspired me to explore anipro some more. > I don't know how to handle all this attention! I have to give you guys more details but can't right now (managed just 3 hrs of sleep since my last…
Thanks Gary!
Wow, thanks! Wait til you see the one I am uploading now! Gee,, the description is in my Clpboard (to have it checked by Grammatik), here it is: wave68.zip zipped 159403 491527 submitted 2/7/94 7:30 AM Title: AniPro Secrets!

No, I think that was after I stopped using microcomputers/PCs, for a few years (79-89). I do remember the name Osborne. He, or someone by the same name, gave a talk at IBM, where he stated something like: the price of computers is coming down the volume of computer sales…
Significant Animation!
Message #81604
Announcing a new use for AniPro and a new use for spreadsheets! HEAT25.ZIP, a most significant animation, is on the way! If this new use for AniPro must have a name, call it "Algorithm Convergence Visualization." In HEAT25.ZIP, you'll see how: 1. A worksheet is used to determine the temperature…

Message #81588
I've been wondering myself. I used to have all the time in the world to answer messages, and now its been several days before I could reply to yours! Besides the book, I have received other suggestions also, and started checking them out. As I told Steve, I would really…

(Continuation) I haven't heard of "groovie," so can't help there either. Actually, I've never used a player. Gotta look into them. Something else I will be looking into soon, is sound. Can you recommend a sound card that would also handle voice recognition? Ed
John, have you gotten a chance to look at TEXT01.ZIP. It may not be anytthing like what you need but who knows?
I've had more time to think about your suggestion. You certainly believe in it! I still don't understand what's wrong with my argument. Why haven't the old books been updated and put back on the shelfs? I've got a couple of irons in the fire now, so can't do anything…
I don't know why I though the file was already there. I though maybe I didn't know where to look. Didn't mean to rush you. BTW, should I be uploading to other places, besides ADESK. I've heard about "GO GRAPHICS," but don't know if it's relevant, or where to go…
Where is your GEB GIF?
No, I haven't seen that book. The boolean stuff sounds real interesting, I've never tried anything in that area. It sounds that would you've done is perfect for the Scientific American Mathematical Recreations (the one Marting Gardner used to do). If you need a way of generating letter combinations, I…
Well, looks like we have a lot to talk about! But, I don't think I can make much sense at this time (sunlight is starting to reflect of my screen, and the TV is starting with kiddie shows, where did the time go?). I just finishing uploading something I mentioned…
Handwriting
Message #81467
I have 31 messages (a thread ending 2/1 at 10PM.) I don't know how to process a thread. If you tell me what to do then I can send it wherever you want. (I got it because I've done some work with handwriting in Animator, and wanted to see if…
Thanks

#Silver
Message #81313
Hm. Does that mean that your PC runs faster than mine (Zeos 486-66; Viper with 2 Meg), or that you like your Silver to look different than I do? I guess that I should say something about your (very flattering) requests for tutorials in most of your messages. I am…
Hmm!

Message #81176
Did the effect of shiny metal work (or not work) for those that downloaded "Silver?" It was uploaded with a jiffy setting of 0. It should have been set at 1.
#Macros in Downloads
Message #81175
Has anyone tried using the macro in "Roll Your Own.?" Did it work for you?
What do you mean: probably?!!

Hi Mark: Sorry about the delay. You caught me at a very busy time. I am happy you are taking a look at my files. HAND35.ZIP is a 1024×768 FLC. I create FLCs up to 1280×1024. I have a Viper graphics card with two meg, but could do 1024×768 FLCs…
You may be able to do more with AniPro than you think. Download 2WAV22.ZIP for example (from the What's New Library). (I have uploaded many other examples of AniPro FLCs.) I have found AniPro to be an excellent buy,
I usually do. I try to fight a tendency to play 30 hr. days but occasionally I'll stop later and later and up skipping a night. My typical up hours are 1PM to 7AM. You may know (from my other notes) that I do all my stuff at home. It's…

What a nice way to start the day! I think it's important for you (all) to know that I was starting to wonder if my work was worthwhile (defined as an activity that results in money or recognition). When 1993 ended I had only received feedback on my uploads twice…
Thanks a lot! For LIST, and for your feedback. LIST seems to be real useful.
Thanks! I really appreciate hearing your opinion!
I have been working on FLCs for a screen saver, but that is not nearly enough to keep me busy. I would like to find other commercial work. John's suggestion is great, and I will pursue it! I was disappointed by your latest message, regarding your not being able to…
Well, I think I beat your posting time! And its all your fault! I've been taking care of the details of your proposal. And, a few hours ago I decided to give textures a try. I just signed on to upload a FLC with the results of that effort. The…
< Have you thought about producing moving texture and opacity maps for 3DS users? Maybe you could get with Chris Allis and become a developer based on the production of a CD with a variety of moving flic maps. I don't think anyone has done it and I imagine you…

Jeff: I am embarassed 🙁 I assumed checking "via mail," on a message meant that it would be private. If you didn't do such a terrific job, I wouldn't have felt free to pull your leg. So, what does "via mail" do; and how do I keep a message from…
Thanks Nik!
Thanks!

New Uploads – 25.Jan.94
Message #78995
I look forward to reading the funny remarks at the beggining of your "New Upload" messages. Ed
Thanks! I appreciate the feedback. I get very little (hint, hint!). Which of my FLCs have you looked at? The following FLCs have information on specific techniques (do a library search using "KELLERMAN" as the KEYWORD): -Flag Rendering (Uploaded this AM) -Color Cyc. How To. -Plants Swaying in the Wind.…
I hadn't seen what you wrote when I answered the message. You'd need "FIT COLORS" set for the CEL, right? BTW, if you do a PICTURE CLEAR RENDER ALL, prior to repasting for example, the color cycling goes away.
