Could I get Nova Designs phone number from someone please. I need to get the
specifications for the scanner cable. Thank you in advance.
-John
The scanner cable specifications are in the README on the first disk. You
can order the cable directly from Redmond Cables by requesting the "GVP"
cable for ImageFX.

Kermit, the scanner specs are on the first disk… of version 1.0. As of v1.5
they are no longer in the readme. Alas, all we have in stock at the store here
is v1.5. How's 2.0 coming?

I'm grab the scanner specs and post 'em here asap.
ImageFX 2.0 is very nearly here now. Things have come together very nicely
and we've added a LOT of new features and many surprises!

Kermit,
I'm a 1.0 or 1.1 or something Image F/X owner and want to upgrade
mainly because I thought that newer versions can read Framestore
files. Is this the case? I don't mind working on the files in HAM,
but loading them up in TPaint and saving as 24Bit files and then the
reverse is driving me crazy. Can the 1.5 upgrade do this? Know of
any vendors who'll sell it to me?
Framestore support is provided via Byrd's Eye Software's ToasterFX
package which is an addon to ImageFX. This package provides the best
framestore conversions and display options you could want. It was
designed for ImageFX 1.5 however. You'll have to ask them about 1.03
level support.
When you work on an image in HAM, it's not really in HAM – but just
shown as HAM. It's still in full color internally.
The ImageFX 1.5 "Upgrade" is no longer available. We'll be shipping ImageFX
2.0 very soon now.

Kermit,
Since the 1.5 Upgrade is no longer available…Is there an upgrade path to 2.0?
Or do we have to re-invest in the new package?
I'm not overly concerned with the display of the Framestore. As in using the
Framebuffer of the Toaster. I just want to be able to read a Framestore format
file into I F/X and write it back as the same.
Later, Jim
Jim, there will be an upgrade path for all registered ImageFX owners. No
worries. 🙂
