LDPRO_UK.TXT V 1.0 A.J.KAYE
Sittingbourne KENT
18th July 1994
With this File please find my Translation of LDPRO_1.PRG there are still
a few bits of German embedded in the Programme but I have been unable to
get them to come up on screen. If you get any German to show up please
let Steve Delaney at Floppyshop know WHAT comes up and the CIRCUMSTANCES
and I will try to duplicate this and then translate it.
The English is a
bit stilted in places but this is due to the restrictions of the Original
German string length and a bit un-avoidable!
In a few places I have replaced the original German with
NEW English instructions where the German was either wrong or NOT
sufficiently helpful. I have only tried the .PRG out in MONO from Floppy
Disc.
The INTRO Screen with the "Little Boy" and the Screen
Labled "AUFHELLEN" with "Stufe 1,to Stufe 6" are Graphic Objects and I
have NOT been able to deal with these yet.
**** NOTE **** I have not tested the Programme throughly but I did
get BOMBs on a number of occasions or it would LOCK
UP. So I suggest you CHECK IT OUT well before you
produce your masterpiece with it!!
[ My system is a 4Mb STE MONO with 16MHz CPU and 2 Floppy Drives ]
*** PROBLEMS I DID FIND ******
DESK .ACCs Although you CAN access .ACCs I had some
where this was NOT done cleanly - the screen
"Messed Up" on Exiting. Again you need to
CHECK this out on your set up.
IMAGE CLEANING? The original German suggests to Clean Up
which is endorsed by "Stufe 1" etc which
is STAGE/STEP 1--- The only problem is that
all I can get this to do is PUT the Stufe
Pattern ON TOP OF the image. So I am NOT
sure this works AT ALL??!!
BEND I could NOT get this to even COME UP let
alone do anything.
LDP SYSTEM INFO In spite of ALL my Efforts TWO setting refuse
to come up on this List - EVEN though they
CAN be SET and seem to WORK OK!! These are;-
COPY MODE - Transparant &
FILL ATTRIBUTE - Outline Only
I have MARKED Both of these with the ATARI
"Note" - Symbol as a reminder.
**** TIPS ***** If using AUTO Masking set on SOLID and you seem to get
Transparant -- CHECK that you do NOT have a missing
Pixel in the Outline. If you do the resulting fill will
go INSIDE and produce a "Transparant" effect.
PRINTER The Printer needs to be switched on and ON-LINE before
the "Printer" section turns BLACK and is accessable.
**** THINGS I HAVE NOT CHECKED OUT ******
I have NOT checked the Programme in Colour at all, I
usually run in MONO.
I have NOT checked ANY of the VARIOUS Graphic File
Import or Export Modes except Degas & IMG which seem
to work OK.
I have NOT tried to LOAD any Signum Fonts yet.
I hope you will find this Translation useful, if I find any more
helpful information when I tryout the programme for myself I will
update this File.
