This archive contains all you need to get Picasso96 up and running on your
Amiga. Picasso96 offers support for many different Amiga graphics boards,
has builtin HiColor and TrueColor support for intuition screens and many
more...
Requirements:
- Kickstart and Workbench 3.0 (V39) since Picasso96 v1.17,
- Motorola MC68020 processor or better,
- CyberVision 64, Domino, Merlin, oMniBus, Picasso II, Picasso II+,
Picasso IV, Piccolo, Piccolo SD64 or Spectrum.
AnyWare, i.e. not commercial or ShareWare. No distribution restrictions.
Short history:
Changes in 1.22a:
- included new version of picture.datatype
- replaced invalid GD5434 chip driver
Changes in 1.22:
- bug in BltBitMap fixed, Workbench now displays directories using
"View By Name" method correctly even in Hi- and TrueColor,
- bug in GetColorMap() fixed which made trouble pinting in color from
within various applications,
- PicassoIV driver and FliFiTool now support PicassoIV.resource versions
upto 4.1,
- if you use a SoftSprite with PicassoIV, it will no longer disappear over
PIPs,
- sanity checks added for PIP stuff,
- CV64 hires sprite in TrueColor fixed,
- CV64 and SD64 planar to chunky conversion hardware support added,
- Picasso96Mode now displays an extra timing parameter window on the "Edit"
screen and preserves future monitor data chunks written by PMTNG and
maybe even Picasso96Mode itself...
- the Picasso96 installation comes in a separate directory now.
Changes in 1.21:
- fixed bug which resulted in BMF_CLEAR being ignored in various cases,
- fixed bug with fonts using italic soft style on non-layered rastports
(Commodore did not adhere to its own programming guidelines there...),
- no normal user should ever be annoyed by debug output again from now on.
Changes in 1.20:
- Direct2Chunky and Direct2Planar blits now work by pen comparison. At least
PowerSnap works with Hi- and TrueColor screens now...,
- fixed AllocBitMap() which did not clear bitmaps in some cases,
- fixed bug in Draw() that did not reset some chip registers on planar
displays,
- fixed bug in internal DisplayID handling that could cause lockups,
- added DisplayID sanity check to avoid DisplayIDs from being used twice,
resulting in system lockups,
- fixed fastlayers.library which caused crashes on some systems,
- planar modes supported with PicassoIV now,
- added byteswapped modes with PicassoIV in ZorroII amigas
