Again I say; Yes!Yes!Yes!Yes!Yes!Yes!Yes!Yes!Yes!Yes! Where's my pom poms? ^^^^ – Running on AutoPilot 1.80 #2 and loving it! B5>ST.all Babylon5 proves it's a lot cheaper to blow up virtual models!
Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! To everything Yes! I second the motion. All in favor, say "Aye!" All opposed pays for Bills 40,000 sq ft mansion. ^^^^ – Running on AutoPilot 1.80 #2 and loving it! B5>ST.all Babylon5 proves it's a lot cheaper to blow up virtual…
>> I have no problems printing from Wordworth, but for example, if I want to print a message on AutoPilot, I select print from the pull down menu, and the following message comes up: "could not open Prt". I have the same problem and have to resort to using the…
>> HOW CAN I GET JPEG PICTURES, DIGITSED ON MY AMIGA USING VIDI RT 12, INTO MY P.C? DO I NEED SPECIAL SOFTWARE? First, TURN OFF THE CAPS LOCK, please. It makes you look like your shouting. And we're all so nice around here. 🙂 Second, do you have CrossDos…
>> Picasso board This should work fine. >> What's DosTrace, A utility that displays the system calls when a program is running. Great for finding out that the program is bombing because it's trying to access a file that you don't have. You'll get "failed" messages when an illegal call…
Sounds like my tooltypes didn't work for you, eh? Let's see about getting you set up right so you can see these neat B5 AVI's. Okay, first TAPAVI (no, I can't get Xanim to work either.) I can get it to work from WB, but you can work it from…
>> how to wrap an image (iff, gif or whatever) around a sphere. DPaint4+ (3?) will do this with IFF. It will even do it over multiple frames in an animation (RAlt+leftclick). I'm experimenting with it now, as I'm trying to come up with some ToolManager dock anim's in the…
Try running the pagesize program _before_ installing VMM to make sure you _and_ the installer want a certain page size. It _should_ be 4. If you choose the wrong page size, GURU! Or if you don't have MUI, etc. A read thru the docs told me I had screwed up…
>> It really is a nice thing to have, God bless the man who wrote it, he deserves a big thanks. Wish I knew more but this is pretty new to all of us. Can't say much more than, "Seconds to all that, and more!" 🙂 Love the stability of…
I have installed NewIcons and the "def_" icons in envarc: If you've installed all icons including the all the "def_" icons and a you're still not getting the WB icons then check; You have the "PatchOpenWB" in your startup-sequence in the right place. (sounds like you do, tho') You have…
re: Disksalve >>Maybe it's 3.0 related. I don't believe so. I have DiskSalv2 running on a A1230/50/50/8 w/VMM. It's the shareware v2, so if you have an older version you might want to check this. – Phillip, on AutoPilot 1.80 _____T_____ Going Amiga 'till the Sun goes Nova! * *…
Holy Freakin' Cows!!!! What did I start? Yo, guys! I believed I posted the answer a few days ago. The problem turned out to be that 'muimaster.library' was in my LIBS: instead of the MUI/LIBS drawer. MUI was looking for a library that simply wasn't where it was supposed to…
You can find DICE on FredFish Disk#491. There are BBS's that have CD-ROM's installed with Fish disks. If you can't find it, then DevWare Disk 71A&B has it as well. A C Manual can be found on FredFish 456 & 457 or DevWare 79A,B,C,D This is the cheap and easy…
This is getting quite informative. BTW, I traced it to a corrupt system-configuration file. The file size was the same, but the bad one had the word 'generic' in it twice. Oh well. Thanks ya'll. – Phillip, on AutoPilot 1.80 _____T_____ Going Amiga 'till the Sun goes Nova! * *…
You may be right. Time to reseat all the chips. Now where's that screwdriver? – Phillip, on AutoPilot 1.80 _____T_____ Going Amiga 'till the Sun goes Nova! * * O * * B5>ST.all
tanks, reinstalled MUI. seems that it doesn't like muimaster.library in any other lib but it's own. BUT…… I'm still getting a black screen on startup. AND I discovered that the prompt is still there, just hidden by the black screen if I 'boot w/o startup'. Hmm…. okay time to take…
tanks, but I've even gone so far as to delete files and reinstall wb3.0 Seems that something really bad is going on. Whenever I try to boot w/o startup all I get is a black screen. Not even the early startup scrren will show. BTW – 1230/50/50/8, wb3.0, zappoCD, MUI,…
#ramlib prog missing
Message #209452
Whenever I attempt to run MUI or a MUI-based program I get; ramlib Program failed (error #80000004). Wait for disk activity to finish Suspend Reboot Checking the various dirs and running the command 'resident' finds that no such command exists. Would somebody please refresh my memory and tell me where…
Just follow the promts, if memory serve right. (I know I just had that thing handy. The PMpatch for getting the game to run on an A1200 works fine.) If not, drop me another line. (Time to clean again, where's the shovel?) ^^^^ – Phillip, on AutoPilot 1.80 _____T_____ Going…

Demise of the Club
Message #196841
The Demise of the Old Computer Club. As has been stated for obvious reasons in this thread and others, the computer club of the future will hold their official meetings in cyberspace. The members will pay their dues to a corporation which in turn will provide the bandwidth needed to…
Pardon if I missed some other threads. Is there a Amiga Club where you live? Have you ever visited a SACC (Sac Amiga Comp Club) meeting? Have you heard of/stopped by Applied Computer Systems in North Highlands (north of Sac)? I'm a member of SACC but live in the Fairfield…
Just me and three others in Solano county, Ca. 😉 – Phillip, on AutoPilot 1.80 _____T_____ Going Amiga 'till the Sun goes Nova! * * O * * B5>ST.all
I have a Zappo hooked up to a A1200 w/M1230XA 50/50/8 installed. Had a heating prob, so I bought a Pentium cooling fan, and by butchering the door as well as my pull out keyboard shelf, I have the fan pointing downward. The power line from the Zappo uses the…

Please don't keep installing/removing your joypads/mouse while your machine is still on! It will eat your input chip. Buy a mouse/joystick switcher. Cheap compared to repairing your machine. Mine is a Pyramid Mouse Master. Works great. – Phillip, on AutoPilot 1.80 _____T_____ Going Amiga 'till the Sun goes Nova! *…
See my tag line. You'll find it in AmigaVend, under AP.LHA Please read the docs very carefully as they _will_ explain virtually everything but the answer to "life, the universe, and everything." Come to think of it, is there the number 42 somewhere in those docs? – Phillip, on AutoPilot…
>> New is only relative Hey, watch that! Ypu're making me feel old. I was one of the original Maintenance guys in the (new) 312th down at Luke. I got the lovely job of loading into the computer all the things that should go kaboom when you need them to,…
>> > Alan Henry – Digital Plastic > F100-PW-220e Inside I like your .sig ! But are there still F100's around? (or have I confused my jets again?) Let me jump in if you would to see if I remember right. Jim, F100-PW-220e refers to a jet aircraft engine. A…
Yup! After checking my capture files I finally saw that. Now to use my newly found ARexx information for something really important. thanx – Phill on AutoPilot 1.77 _____T_____ Goin' Amiga 'till the Sun goes Nova * * O * *
Jim, you just want to do BattleTech live, over a multi-line BBS, with free scrolling terrain, all types of vehicles, with different platforms. But then so do I! 🙂 – Phill Helpin push Heavies thru the Atmosphere
ROFL, mistrokin' keys (Joclyn where are you now?), coughin' fits. – Phill Helpin push Heavies thru the Atmosphere
Sorry to come off a bit hot the last time, but I aspire to make alot more than I do now, but I do not want to be called selfish, mean, bigoted, homophobic, etc, etc, when I finally get to a comfortable income. And when I see people using the…

#Minimum wage
Message #179079
So the rich are some kind of ogres who don't deserve the money they have? And the obvious solution is to take it all away thru force and "give it back" to those who have "truly earned it"? Or have just a few of the rich worked hard for their…
#Amiga and BTech
Message #173880
Jim – As; 1) I'm new (!) 2) I've got an Amiga (!!) 3) I like BattleTech. 4) I had the old MechWarrior game (remember when?) Then; 1) Do you have any editors for BT or MW? 2) Do you have openings in an on-line game? (where, when, et.al.) BTW…
