I hope it works for you now. |

| Nope as Picasso cards don`t do 3D
Sorry, Picasso has some nice touches, which are dead handy, but I`m afraid this is one of the cons.

Say, does this application use the Warp3D v4 vertex array drawing functions? |
No, not at all, so I guess it does not really need Warp3D v4.
But one should always use latest drivers anyway |

| Hi Shadow,
You should consider using vertex array drawing when you have large numbers of primitives to render. It can give quite a boost, not to mention an excuse for sticking the v4 required info _________________ Doing stupid things for fun...

This is an excellent, well written program. it works on both WOS and 68k, you can select Screenmode, speed etc. Works straight out of the archive. If you need a decent screensaver for your gfx based Amiga, this is the one. Recommended.

if there only wouldn't be these warpos crashes i always get when using warp3d (or warpo) programs... sad...

| Very nice
Would like to point out that on my setup it does not give back gfxcard ram that it uses ever & keeps on useing more each time it starts.
Also can not change workbench screen mode after GL Matrix has blanked once. _________________ PowerTower A1200, 060/80Mhz, Heatsink & Fan, 66MBRam, PowerFlyerGold, 50xCDRomdrive, 250Zip, 2.1

Hmm ok, I will look into this, I did not notice this on my setup, but maybe I did not look
- Edit:
I do not allocate any gfx mem myself at all, so I will have to look through the MiniGL sources to see if there is anything suspicious.

Nope, that is because I lock the default public screen and never release it again. UnlockPubScreen would actually crash my amiga |

| So, Shadow, how does it feel to open Pandora's box, LOL?.... or is it just a can of worms? I'm sure everything will get worked out. There are always a few configurations in which things don't work the way they were intended. |

Hmm, it does store the "invert alpha", it is just not shown by the checkbox. Wierd!! I Just tried to enable the invert flag, save and reboot.
When my amiga was ready again, I opended the preference gui and "invert alpha" was disabled. I pressed "cancel" and opened the preference window again and now the "invert alpha" was enabled. I better start bug hunting |

It feels great to have made something, that other people appriciate and wants to use. I have been absolutely overwhelmed by the positive feedback I have gotten.
Thanks to all of you for the great feedback on the screensaver.
Agreed there has been a few problems, but luckily people told me about the problems, instead of just saying that the program is crap. Thanks to everybody who filed bugreports, I am doing my best to fix them asap. |
