#cfig386 3DS settings??
3 messages in this thread
I'm setting up 3DS4 and want to use AniPro as one of the User Programs. What
are the recommended values for -extlow, -exthigh, and -maxvcpi? I've got 32MB
RAM.
Thanks,

I don't believe we have a "definite" range we recommend. There are some good
comments about the settings in a file about 3D Studio that you should check out
(see below).
If you're running under DOS you can make the shell have more memory to work
with (at the expense of less memory for Ani) using the cfig386 program as
follows:
cfig386 ani.exe -maxreal FFFFh
This will transfer about 450K of memory from Ani to the shell.
There's a little bit of info in the AAPro 1.3a README.DOC too.

Thanks for the reply. I'll look at the file.
