AmigaBasic
Message #68253
If you mean on how to Dump a Screen to a printer (That is a bitmat not TEXT..) check your AmigaBASIC 1.2 if not look in the libraries for a program called ScreenDump ,this program will do the job and/or can be modified to do so…if that is your problem…if…
Well…thank you very much i will dig on my father's IEEE collection and see if ican get more info Ed Silva
Hi, I am very interested in doing 3D with the Amiga, not MTV videos but Animations of office buildings. We use AutoCAD but… we need a computer that is capable of doing animation for a modest price (the Amiga..) now WILL your 3D program (VideoScape?) be able to translate DXF…

Hello… I am playing with this graphics function using 1.2,and for some reasons when i execute this routine it takes about 5-15 seconds to execute! where as a RecFill() is executed on the fly..! i know that an ellipse takes lots of time to calculate and draw (1-2 sec) but…
What does the assembler does…? will it generate clean machine code or is it for compiling SEPARATE 68000 source and the Link it (or BLink it) to your run time modules. what do you mean that it does support FFP,IEEE ,do you mean mean that when i load #include or…

Hello: I am trying to get an update of the newer Lattice 3.10 version. what are the pluses and minuses of getting, also does it really suupport FFP and/or IEEE math routines directly without having to kludge? how big is the linked code? how about compiler/nker speed any improvements. also…

#SetDrMd()
Message #58857
I am trying to do a "rubberband" similar to what a paint,cad program does. i tried to use the COMPLEMENT mode and then the JAM1 mode,here is a sample Line() { line=TRUE; SetDrMd(RastPort,COMPLEMENT); SetAPen(RastPort,red); while(line) { getintuimessage…..; ReplyMsg(message); if(mycode==SELECTUP)line=FALSE; Drawline(); Drawline(); } SetDrMd(RastPort,JAM1); Drawline(); } the function does draw a…

Bob, Wire frame type animation is much,much easier than solid animation even on the Amiga it takes a lot of computing power. if the firebird game is so fast on wire frame graphics,why they did not try to do a solid animation instead? Because you CAN'T beat the blitter speed…
Don, I tried both and they did not work. Now do i have to DeArc this files And/Or do something else to it before i copy it to Pref (Besides changing its name?) Thanks Ed P.S. This was a FAST reply Don, Talk about a good BBS…!
Ken, you mean that GO-64! will make the c-64 run Amiga programs (I want to see this one…!) OR is this to make the Amiga RUN c-64 stuff? Ed

There is a magazine (Popular Computing I think?) that has a report of computer sales,top/worse software,computers,executives and companies. According to this magazine the ST will one of the top 10 best sellers in 1987, the Amiga is not on this list. Why is this and why is there such contradictions…

Does anybody knows how to use and/or access the FastFloatingPoint & IEEP routines from C, I tried using the samples in the ROM Kernel but tey did not work. also i did a loop in C as follows: for (a=0.0;a
