- I'd just thought I'd let everyone know that I got Maven working.
- _But_ it only works when using another program on the other
- end, such as NetPhone.
-
- NetPhone also works, but only the commercial version! The
- demo version will crash ShapeShifter before it even gets done
- loading, but the commercial version works perfect. Who knows
- why...
-
- So, in my experimentation, I got Maven working on my Amiga
- under ShapeShifter by talking to a friend who was using
- NetPhone on the other side. Strange enough, Maven doesn't work
- with Maven!! It'll play garbage through the speakers when the other
- person talks...argh.
-
- The way to make Maven and NetPhone work together is to tell
- NetPhone to use the 'vat' protocol (you can find it under the
- 'New Call' menu item). Just make a new call and instead of the
- 'NetPhone' protocol, push on the list button and it'll have NetPhone
- and 'vat' listed. Select 'vat'.
-
- I haven't fully tested to see if this all works with a digitizer
- under SS since I don't have one yet (I should have one in a couple
- days or so). And I was using a 14.4Kb modem on my end, which was
- VERY slow and unusable. My 28.8 modem should also be here in
- a couple days. :)
-
- Seeya!
