- Last minute:
-
- The manual reports that there are TWO installation disks, but there is
- only ONE disk in the original package, because we have fitted it with
- all the needed stuff.
-
- Thank you for reading and understanding.

- Version 1.1 ________________________________________________________
-
- What's new in X-DVE 1.1 ?
- Well, here's the list:
-
- - Palette requester did not work under OS2.xx (fixed)
- - Remapping an object >2048 pixels did some random memory writes (fixed)
- - Slide and Wind effects could crash under OS2.xx (fixed)
- This was caused by "undocumented" OS2.xx features of BltBitMapRastPort
- and BltMaskBitMapRastPort gfx system routines.
- - Masking of objects was incorrect for 3D / LIGHT effects (fixed)
- - Some SLIDE effects were too slow (expand(x-y),Turn(x-y))(speeded up)
- - Cleanup of XFA animations had a silly bug (fixed)
- - Display or lists under OS2.xx was terrible (now is a bit better)
- - 3D and Light mapping were too slow on 030+FPU/040 machines
- The brush mapping code has been completely rewritten and now it's times faster
- and uses Math Coprocessor code.
- Also the LIGHT dithering code has been modified and now it works far better.
- - XFA compression routines now use a special addressing mode for 68020+
- processors.
- This means that animations generated on A1200 and A4000 are shorter and
- faster than those generated with 68000/68010 machines.
- This also means that you cannot play A1200/A4000 animations on A600
- (but you can play A600 animations on A1200/A4000)!
-
- Version 1.11 ________________________________________________________
-
- Not released in Germany
-
- - Fixed a bug in XFA 32Bit compression mode (it was a miracle to find it).
- - Better calculation for Wind and 3D effects, now an object will reach
- the right place at the right time (not a frame later as V1.0).
- - The Timings Requester now shows readable names (not as V1.1) if there
- are more than 10 objects to display.
- - Fixed a "script not saved" silly bug.
-
- Version 1.12 ________________________________________________________
-
- This is the OFFICIAL german release.
- As you can see, program texts and messages are in english.
- We've tried to put them in german, but they were really too large to
- fit into some small buttons, so we decided to keep english texts.
- However, if someone can help us to give the buttons the right german
- names, it will be great !
-
- - Fixed a X-DVE.library malfunction when rendering Wind or Slide effects
- with the Light Source ON.
- - Use of 3.0 BusyPointer if running under OS3.xx
- - Palette requester now shows colour 0 selected whenever it is called
-
-
- Version 2.00_________________________________________________________
-
- It could be a reality ...... or not. It all depends on you.
