#GENERAL HELP
4 messages in this thread
I remember seeing some messages a while back about file incompatibility
ween the 3000 and 2000 when creating DPaint images on the 3000. Well, I
just ran into the same thing and I need some help to figureout a fix. When
I load a picture file created on the 3000 with DPaint (running under
WB1.3.2 OR 2.0) on the A500, I gete a "Not an ILBM or ANIM file" message.
This occurs no matter what program is attempting to load the file. Did
someone come up with a fix to this? I'd appreciate any help as we are
trying to use the 3000 to create graphics for our 500 thaeds a cable TV
channel.
Chris, not that this is much help, but I was told by a software company
that there is a newer version of the kickstart which eliminates this
problem, but that it isn't being released yet, they're going to wait for a
more final version before updating everyone.

Chris,
I don't have an A3000 (I will wait for a native 68040 machine!!), but if I
remember correctly, what will work is to save from DPaint to the hard
drive, then use the AmigaDos copy command (or drag the icon in WB) to the
floppy.

Andy Finkle dropped by here a while back to verify that this was a bug, and
they were working on it. _IF_ I remember his messages correctly, he said
that you should COPY the offending file under AmigaDOS 2.0, and port the
COPY to DPIII running under 1.3.
Try that out, and see if it fixes the problem. (If I misremembered this,
someone else jump in, OK?)
