John, can Scala MM300 do a crawl at the bottom of the screen that is many sentences long without interuption? In other words, do I have to create many pages with just the bottom line having text and the line set to crawl or is there a better way to…

#AmiBack2.0 vs WB3.1
Message #187642
I'll keep it in mind. However I got a line on a rebuilt SCSI II 2 gig DAT tape system for $800. I just don't have the money right now for either one. I'm in the middle of selling and buying homes. Thanks, Jim R. Ollick on a Warped 4000/040/40…
"I dont scale things once I finish them , I just move the camera around and set the Y axis to get the effect I need." Thanks for clearing that up. I'll have to start doing it, all along I've been scaling objects to fit the default camera settings. Jim…
"Jim, you are a gentleman and a scholar, sir!" Thank you. By the way, can you supply prices on a 250 meg. or so SCSI II tape back-up system. I just don't have the money at this time for the 2 gig DAT setup. I'll either wait or buy a…
"It has a retail price of $1400." Ouch, I'll just have to keep saving up. Jim R. Ollick on a Warped 4000/040/40 Using AP 1.77 from Bergenfield, NJ
Thanks for the reply, aren't Amigas just great! 🙂 All of the IBM/CLONE dealers say "it won't work, you need a driver and the units only come with IBM/CLONE drivers". I am looking to back up my 1.7 gig HD on my PAR card. I may look into a 250…
Ralph, Sorry, I have never seen a "park" command program for the Amiga. Have you searched the librarys on CIS? Jim R. Ollick on a Warped 4000/040/40 Using AP 1.77 from Bergenfield, NJ
Mike, I assume you mean that you create the object as large as the default window of the detail editor. When rendering you must be scaling the objects in the stage to the size you want them to appear in the final picture. Am I correct? Jim R. Ollick on…
Check out the latest AmigaWorld, they list users groups from around the country. I had loads of Commodore and Amiga magazines dateing back to 1987. A call to the local users group brought an extreamly appretiative member to my door to pick them up. He even offered to pay for…
I thought that all Quantum drives auto parked without additional help from software. Jim R. Ollick on a Warped 4000/040/40 Using AP 1.77 from Bergenfield, NJ
I am looking into 2 gig DAT SCSI II tape units. Is there a special driver you needed or is it just "plug and play" with Diavolo or AmiBack/QB etc? What is the price of the tape unit if you don't mind me asking, and how much do the tapes…
Tape back-up, DAT
Message #186802
I am looking to buy a tape backup unit, it has to be SCSI 1 and 2 compatable, use DAT tapes, hold 2 gigs on one tape and be external. Any suggestions, used hardware for sale? Also what software is used? If I find a used tape drive at a…
Your 1084s should have no problem in PAL mode. What you need to do is warm boot your 4000 and hold down the 2 mouse buttons as it is booting. You will get a screen with several options, select (I'm going from memory here) the display options button, and select…
I suggest you see if anyone here on CIS with a CD32 lives close enough to you to try their supply (I have a CD32 but have no idea where you live). You can also try Micro R&D, they have supplies for all the other Amiga models, their number is…
I also have a 4000, with a 540 Meg. Seagate. I had the same problem. The program you downloaded is for the 3000 only, it won't crash your 4000, it just won't really do anything. I upgraded to WB 3.1, that seams to have corrected the problem. On bootup my…
External SCSI Port Blues
Message #185409
I found a slot cover with a 25 pin SCSI connector (also a ribbon cable) and 2 phono jacks on it at a local PC Warehouse store, I think I paid $30. or so for it. I works great with my WARP 4040. I also hooked the supplied audio lines…
If you mean from the begining, I had installed ADPro version 2.0.3 (I think that is the right number) first, then bought the MorphPlus package and installed it sometime later. After that I bought the upgrade to ADPro, 2.5, and installed it. After having the problem with Morph020 I re-installed…
I forgot that, I've been using 3.0/1 since it came out. I used to display a picture as a WB backdrop, however, it does eat up some chip ram (I use a hi-res WB) and have since gone back to the gray screen. Jim R. Ollick on a Warped 4000/040/40…
Yes I reinstalled the software and I do have ADPro 2.5. Jim R. Ollick on a Warped 4000/040/40 Using AP 1.75 from Bergenfield, NJ
ADPro will convert .bmp pictures to IFF format. If you do not have ADPro, I will convert the picture for you, via US Mail. Let me know if that is what you wnat and I'll E-Mail you my address. Jim R. Ollick on a Warped 4000/040/40 Using AP 1.75 from…
Sorry, I may not have been clear enough but both versions come up with message about not enough chip memory when launched from my hard drive. If I run them from a floppie disk (the original disks), I have no trouble. Jim R. Ollick on a Warped 4000/040/40 Using AP…
I am having a problem loading Morph and Morph.020. I have them in the same drawer as ADPro 2.5. When I click on the icon, the program starts to load and I get a window with the following in it "LOW ON CHIP MEMORY" and the program fails to load.…
Dominick, do we both work for the same company? Jim R. Ollick on a Warped 4000/040/40 Using AP 1.75 from Bergenfield, NJ
I have an NEC 3XE, it has a DIP switch on the rear that lets you select either SCSI 1 or 2 operation. Jim R. Ollick on a Warped 4000/040/40 Using AP 1.75 from Bergenfield, NJ
There is an AmiLink setup at our Bayonne studio, the producer there says that the ripple problem does not exist. He says that there is a professional and a consumer version of Amilink. He has the pro version and claims that it works without any trouble. Please do not ask…
Charles, you mention the Imagine Texture Guide. Where can one find this file? Jim R. Ollick on a Warped 4000/040/40 Using AP 1.75 from Bergenfield, NJ
I just tried it on my 4000/040 and had no problems. Jim R. Ollick on a Warped 4000/040/40 Using AP 1.75 from Bergenfield, NJ

Is there anyone out there who has a twinkle anim brush, or twinkle star that you want to release to the public domain? If so would you please upload it?
As far as converting from DCTV to TIFF, I have used ADPro. Just be sure to save the DCTV picture in 24 bit format. Jim R. Ollick on a Warped 4000/040/40 Using AP from Bergenfield, NJ
I recommend the Personal TBC-IV from DPS. That is the one I have. DPS manufactures stand alone, PC, and Amiga products. They also manufacture the PAR card (I have one of those to). 🙂 They have a BBS in Canada on which you can call in and download free updates…
Ok here's my 2 cents worth. You would need a sync generator (I think they are also refered to as Black Burst Generators). That signal would also be refered to as HOUSE SYNC. You would feed that sync into the TBCs reference in connector. You most likely would have to…

Message #98054
Ok, thanks. I'll get it. Jim R. Ollick on a Warped 4000/040/40 Using AP from Bergenfield, NJ
As far as heat is concerned it may have only been with the early units shipped without a fan on the '040. I have 3 hard drives and 3 expansion cards in my 4000 and have left it running over 24 hours without any thermal problems. I have replaced my…
PMFJI, I recommend MegageM as a source for the WARP. Daniel Wolf is the owner (he is here on line, 70250,626) or call him at 1-805-349-1104. Ii have purchased my Warp and other hardware/software from him. His prices and support are great. Jim R. Ollick on a Warped 4000/040/40 Using…

I have never had a need to go from a video picture to a printed one. However I have seen some created from Amiga slides by a Polorid device, they looked great in 8.5 x 11 inch. Jim R. Ollick on a Warped 4000/040/40 Using AP from Bergenfield, NJ
Try 715-856-5627, Graphic Impressions. or 602-949-6066, Hammond Photographic Services. Both accept Amiga format 24-bit IFF files. Jim R. Ollick on a Warped 4000/040/40 Using AP from Bergenfield, NJ
#US COURT/CBM

Good to see you back. Did you or anyone else check out page 63 of the January AmigaWorld magazine? There is a notice from the US Bankruptcy Court regarding CBM, asking any creditors to respond by Jan. 17, 1994. Mabie this is holding things up. Jim R. Ollick on a…
You might try MegageM for great support and prices on the Micropolis Drive. The owner and Amiga developer is here on line: Daniel Wolf, 70250,626. You can reach him via voice at 1-805-349-1104. Ok, talk to you when you get back. Have a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, Jim…
