- EW> 1. What rez (320x200x256 for example) are the following games in:
- EW> a. Wolfenstien 3D
-
- It's one of the modified Mode 13h routines, which one beats me, but from the
- size of the pixels I'd guess it's 320x200 or 320x240.
-
- > b. LEMMINGS VGA
-
- It uses 640x480x16 for the Title and inbetween screens, and 320x200x256 for
- the actual game.
-
- EW> 3. Where can I find out more about
-
- EW> a. XLIB
- > b. XBLT
-
- From the authors who are here, I'm sure they responded in EMail. If
- your .com site doesn't forbid uuencoded EMail, you can get both from them.
- XLIB is the more complete one and free.
-
- > d. Fastgraph,
-
- Since you're calling from a .com site, you should find Fastgraph online
- or atleast in your area on some board. Search for Fastgraph Lite, I haven't
- looked at it in ages, but I remember file names like FGL_134A/B/C.ZIP.
- Fastgraph itself is commerical. If you have any back messages available
- you'll find Fastgraph Lite. It was posted recently.
-
- Fastgraph offers routines for CGA to 4 planar VGA modes. XLIB and XBLT
- do the 4 planar VGA modes only. Ted Gruber is the author, if you
- have any pascal or shareware conferences on some PC networks in your
- area you'll find him or his wife, Diana. They'll mail you a disk if you
- can't find it in your area.
