#VP3 Lock-up
4 messages in this thread
No one here seem's to be interested in – nor do I see any support of – Distant
Suns!!
I was hoping to find Library items that might be of interest. I'll check the
file list I downloaded, but so far, …disappointed…

Michael:
Unfortunately, VRLI has supplied me with very little material on
Distant Suns. I have only recently been given press releases, on paper,
which I haven't had a chance to key in yet. John Hinkley, author of
VistaPro has provided me with a great deal of information and tools for
VistaPro, and also I helped code the Amiga version. I will try to obtain
any information that is requested and answer any questions that are asked
to the best of my ability, but I can't supply information that I don't
have. As far as I know, there are no utility programs to use with Distant
Suns and VRLI hasn't released any imagery for me to upload.

I can suggest some simple uploads that VRLI might like to supply for Distant
Suns: for example, in the manual there is an AREXX script which generates a
_really_neat_ animation of the Halley's Comet flyby. It was quite small, and a
few more examples like that might be nice,…

I will talk to Mike and see what he has available. I have been
frustrated for quite some time over the lack of Distant Suns support I get
from VRLI, though I feel it is more from lack of organisation in their
engineering dept than anything sinister. Just answering messages and email
is taking more time than I am allotted, but I can't stand to see a message
neglected, so I can't just 'shine it on'. I just got a scanner and OCR
software recently and will experiment with it over the weekend and see
what I come up with that way.
