New Uploads!
8 messages in this thread
I have just uploaded some new files to the Library. The first is a module
which greatly simplifies the Amiga's animation routines by automatically
building all the data structures needed for complex objects. The second is
a low-level audio library and a collection of sound effects.
I hope you will find these utilities useful. I also encourage you to check
out the files I uploaded a few weeks ago. They include a full Modula-2
make facility which is very useful when you are working with programs
constructed out of many individiaul modules. In addition, there is a file
with an update to the FindImages module which fixed the only known conflict
with AmigaDOS 2.0.
Please, let me know if you find these uploads useful and if I should
continue to upload new programs from time to time.
Thank you!

Leon,
Thank you for uploading the source code. I did try compiling the Anim
modules and had some compiler errors. Would you mind taking a look at it?
If I recall, there was a variable missing and a parameter list error in
Amim.mod. I tried it a few days ago and didn't take notes, so this is as
close as my brain will take me.

Hi Dave:
The last time I compiled it was ok, it does use all the add-on libs so you
have to have those in the search path. Let me know the specific problem
and I will check into it.

Ok, I have the compiler running…
GelsUtil and SimpleAnim all compile fine. Anim.mod –
3 errors Error 50: identifier not declared or not visible
DefaultRingTrigger – not found Error 65: fewer actual than formal
parameters StartSeq(); Error 65: fewer actual than formal parameters
StartSeq();
Test.mod – ok.
I haven't looked at the source at all, so I suspect Test must be dependant
upon Anim.mod? Test opens a screen and exits immediately without error
notification.

Sorry, I forgot to save that last post unformatted. Here it is again…

Dave:
The Test.mod and Anim.mod are both separate test programs. The anim.mod
should not have been in the archive, it was an old test program. You can
basically delete it. Just use the test.mod program for experimentation
purposes.

Gotcha, Leon. Umm, exactly what is the Test executable supposed to do? All
it does is open a screen and immediately close down for me (I am running
2.04 in ROM if that matters in any way).

Hi Dave:
The Test program is just an example of how you would setup an animation
using the Amiga's Animation routines. The Animation module handles all the
complex linkage for all the data structures. When the Test program is
initializing it attempts to load several image files and then starts an
animation loop. Look at the source code and you will see that it references
some filenames. If you want to experiment with animation I suggest using
Dpaint to draw some components of a larger object and then modifying the
test program to use your images.
