- 4.01
- ----
- Altered the way MORAY is started from POVFrame so that the protected
- mode REGISTERED version may be used from the POVFrame desktop.
- POVFrame now starts MORAY using a batch file since the registered
- version needs to be started in from w/in it's own directory. The
- batch file MRAY.BAT, included with POVFrame, MUST be copied to your
- MORAY directory and edited to suit your particular systems needs.
- See the comments in MRAY.BAT it's self for instructions.
- Thanks to Lutz Kretzschmar for providing the info for getting this
- going!
-
- Version 4.01 was compiled with VX-REXX Version 2.1. You must replace
- your existing VROBJ.DLL with the one included here. Among the 2.1
- benefits are, a smaller POVFRAME.EXE file size and VROBJ.DLL has
- now been optimized for use on Pentium based machines. This will also
- help out somewhat speed wise on 80486 based machines as the instruction
- ordering for the P5 also sees benefits w/ the 486 pipeline. It will
- still run on 386 based machines too.

- 4.0
- ----
-
- Added control buttons to panel tied directly to the current image
- file being worked with. Moved 'Output File Type' to the 'Presets'
- subwindow to get the screen real estate & still maintain a 640x480
- usability.
-
-
- POVOS2 Update
- -------------
-
- Added completion 'beep' to POVOS2.EXE. Use the +p option with
- the program and POVOS2 will sound a 'beep' at the completion
- of the trace run. 8/27/94

-
- 3.01
- ----
- Fixed Animation batch file not using the variable DOS executable
- name. (Was still using the default, POVRAY.EXE)
-
- 3.0
- ----
-
- Compiled with VX-REXX 2.0b.
-
-
- In response to requests:
-
- Added 2 more POV-Ray Library Paths to the defaults for a total of
- 6 now available.
-
- Added a subwindow that allows selection of several standard (S)VGA
- resolutions, a couple 'test' resolution sizes as well as 2 common
- resolutions supported by 'TV' video boards.
-
- Added the ability to change the file names for the OS/2 and DOS
- POV-Ray executable files. POVOS2.EXE (OS/2) and POVRAY.EXE (DOS)
- are the defaults.
-
- Added path specification to explicitly 'tell' OS/2 where to find
- STARTD.EXE and STARTD where to find POV.INI. This should eliminate,
- or at least reduce, initial setup problems.
-
- Fixed situation that occurred when the 'select file to be rendered'
- dialog was called but -canceled-. This resulted in the file entry
- field still -displaying- the old file name, however the value
- read when the render buttons were pressed was corrupt for some
- reason. A 'file not found' message would be generated by POV-Ray.
- The dialog now gets reset to NO FILE SELECTED under these conditions.
-
- Added nicer "ABOUT" subwindow. The ICON for the program is now
- bound into the EXE. The separate POVFRAME.ICO file is NO LONGER
- required.
-
- Changed POVFRAME.DOC into an OS/2 INF file.
-
- Added yet more error trapping.
-
-
- 2.21
- ----
-
- This version has been compiled with Watcom VX-REXX version 2.0.
- You *MUST* use the VROBJ.DLL included here with this compile.
- Otherwise, other than a few "cosmetic" changes, the program is
- functionally the same as the released POVFrame 2.2 shareware
- version. The "ABOUT" box still says 2.2, the time stamp on the
- files ID's the 2.21 version as there were no major code changes.
-
- 2.2
- ----
- Added support for DTA 2.1Beta 24bit TrueColor .FLT animation file
- generation as well as 24bit .BMP file generation.
-
- Changed "dont"s to "don't"s. Thanks to all who pointed this
- out to me. <G> ;-)
-
- Altered AutoCalculate code to prevent program crashes when non-
- numeric values are entered in the entry fields. The program will
- now BEEP when a mis-key occurs and should not crash.
-
- Added OS/2 standard ICONs, and support for System Sounds if
- MultiMedia is installed, to message dialog boxes.
-
- Altered AutoCalculate code to update ClockInc only when a change
- occurs in one of the entry fields, instead of constantly looping.
-
- Added more error checking and warnings for possible problem conditions.
-
- Updated DOC file.
-
- Compiled and included POV-Ray 2.2 for OS/2.
-
- Users of POVFrame versions *prior* to this one should replace their
- VROBJ.DLL file with the one included here!!!!
-

- 1.02/1.05
- ---------
- Fixed typo causing DOS Viewer/PostProcessor progam path to not be
- initialized at program start.
-
- Changed pulldown menu names for Viewers/PostProcessors to reflect
- it's more wide ranging use than just looking at images.
-
- All paths and program names under the defaults pulldown are checked
- for validity before saving.
-
- When a multiple directory setup was used the POV-Ray .DEF files were
- not being written to the same directory as the EXE being executed.
