- 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.
