Thanks for trying POPOUT-PRO. Because POPOUT is being
distributed via a number of channels, there may not be
an installation utility on this diskette or in this file.
If there is, it is called INSTALL.EXE. From within the
Windows' Program Manager, click on 'File', then click on
'Run'. Type the command A:\INSTALL.
Note:
If you've already run the install utility, and a POPOUT
Program Group has been created with a number of items, there
is a possibility that none of the POPOUT files has actually
been copied to your diskette. This is a problem in some
systems with the way Windows caches files. If this happens,
either exit then restart Windows and try it again, or else
copy all of the files on the POPOUT diskette to your POPOUT
install directory.
This diskette contains the following files:
README.TXT - This file.
FILE_ID.DIZ - A description of POPOUT-PRO used by some BBS's.
INSTALL.EXE - The POPOUT Install utility.
INSTALL.INF - The POPOUT Install Information file.
POPOUT.EXE - POPOUT-PRO Version 2.1 executable
POPOUT.HLP - POPOUT-PRO Help File
POPOUT.PAL - This is a Paintbrush palette file, used to redefine the
Paintbrush palette to use POPOUT colors.
EXAMPI1.BMP - Sample Source Image created using Paintbrush, and used
to create EXAMPO1.BMP and EXAMPO2.BMP
EXAMPI2.BMP - File created using POLYRAY and PLY2POP. This file has
been converted from Targa to BMP so that you can view it
using Paintbrush. It must first be converted to Targa
to be a suitable POPOUT Source File. In it's original
Targa format, it was used to create EXAMPO3.BMP and
EXAMPO4.BMP. (see PLY2POP.TXT)
EXAMPO1.BMP - Sample RDS Image in Black & White created by the shareware
version of POPOUT-PRO. Note that there are two levels
of depth; the base level and one other level. All non-
black colors are treated identically by the shareware
version of POPOUT-PRO.
EXAMPO2.BMP - Sample RDS Image in Random Colors, instructing POPOUT
to generate lots of green by use of the Background color
in the Color Select window. The Depth Factor was
set to 35%. This image was created using the
non-shareware version of POPOUT-PRO to get the 16 levels.
EXAMPO3.BMP - Sample Custom Color RDS Image using EXAMPI2.TGA (not
included) as the Source File, with the Pixel Density
parameter set at 75% This is a "cross eyed", or
Convergent stereogram. and may be difficult for some
users to see. The Pattern Width was set to 100 pixels,
and the Depth Factor set to 80%. This image also has
Guide Dots. If you see a "hole", you're viewing it
wrong - remember, cross your eyes; don't relax them.
This file was converted from Targa so it could be viewed
using Paintbrush. This image was created using the
commercial version of the software.
EXAMPO4.BMP - Sample Dual-Image stereogram using EXAMPI2.TGA as the
Source File, and BIRD.BMP as the Background File. The
Depth Factor was set to 30%. This image was created
with the non-shareware version of the software.
BIRD.BMP - This is the background image used to create EXAMPO4.BMP.
COLORS.POC - This is a sample color file used for creating EXAMPO3.BMP.
It was created by pressing the colors "LtBlue, LtCyan,
LtGreen, LtYellow, LtRed". This is the color file
used to generate EXAMPO3.
USFLAG.POC - This is another example of a color file, created using
the colors "LtRed, White, LtBlue".
PLY2POP.EXE - This is a DOS command line utility for converting
a POLYRAY-generated image to something POPOUT can use
as a Source File. See PLY2POP.TXT.
PLY2POP.TXT - Text file that describes PLY2POP.EXE
BMP2TGA.EXE - This is a simple DOS command utility for converting
BMP formatted files to Targa.
BMP2TGA.TXT - Text file describing BMP2TGA.EXE
TGA2BMP.EXE - This is a simple DOS command utility for converting
Targa formatted files to BMP.
TGA2BMP.TXT - Text file describing TGA2BMP.EXE
POPOUT.INI - Init file used to set POPOUT defaults.
