Easy Amos default screenmode
« on: September 11, 2009, 04:40:55 AM »
What is the screenmode Easy Amos opens by default ? (the editor etc)
Could it be changed somehow ?
So, it causes some problems, when trying to load some iff pics and pack them... -If they're different size ..?!

i dont use Easy AMOS, but if its like AMOS Pro, you'll need to go into the "set interpreter config" settings to change the default screen size... the default is... err.. probably 320x 256, 16 colours ,lowres


However, when you use 'load iff', it should open/adjust a screen at the correct size anyway... especially if you use, for example,

Code: [Select]
LOAD IFF "myPicture.iff",3
to load it into (in this case) screen 3, which you have not opened yet.


There is a small bug in the IFF loading/saving routines, and you will need to make sure your IFF width size is a multiple of 4 (i think)... what is the resolution/width/height of the file you are trying to load?

There are a lot of limititations in Easy Amos and a lot of stuff has been removed compared to the other version, so some things may not work or may not be configurable.

Horace: Are you sure that bug is in Easy Amos?

no, i know it from AMOS Pro, but I had a good explanation of the cause of it from StingRay, and I cant see it being that likely that Easy AMOS has a better IFF load/save routine than Pro.

I thought it had to be a multiple of 16 to be displayed on a screen at all!  Otherwise there are extensions to get around some of the incompatibilities on Amos the Creator and AmosPro.
