Re: [ql-users] SideWinder de Luxe

Hi Dilwyn,

I know that. It just gave problems with SideDesigner DeLuxe' preview. The 
program works as expected so it is not very serious 8-).

As far as I have seen, an enhancement to LineDesign would be the best!

Cheers...Ralf R.

Ralf, it might be worth trying to run Sidewinder or Page Designer with
the QPC_QLSCREMU command - that way if Sidewinder writes to the old QL
screen area, QPC will try to copy it to the new screen. You can use
parameters like this (-1 or 4 are usually the one to use):

-1 = automatic mode
0 = disable QL screen emulation
4 = force to 4 colour QL screen mode
8 = force to 8 colour QL screen mode (normally used for old QL games
which run in mode 8)

Obviously it is best to run QPC2 in 4 colour mode to stand the best 
chance of success with older programs, but even if you run in high 
colour mode QPC2 will try to do colour conversion for you.

 Does anybody know, if Steve Jones (Zitasoft) is contactable in any 
 way?

 I have tried SideWinder de Luxe in 24pin mode with PD2/3 pages 
 under
 QPCPrint and it works really good (albeit writing into screen's 
 memory with
 preview, ok, it's a bit old ;-)). Would be really good, if the 
 program could
 be developed further.

 Cheers...Ralf R.
