- Short: CyberGraphX Extension Update V2.21
- Author: fmariak@chaosengine.ping.de,marvin@sun.ph-cip.uni-koeln.de
- Uploader: vgr@best.com (Robert C. Reiswig)
- Type: gfx/board
-
-
- The CyberGraphX system was designed to define an independant graphics
- standard for graphics boards. We also wanted to continue our development
- of graphics extensions. We could include all our knowledge of about 3 years
- of gfx board software development (graphics extensions for Visiona, Domino,
- Picasso II and now the CyberVision64).
-
- CyberGraphX is based on hardware dependant monitor drivers and hardware
- independant libraries. This has some advantages: Bug fixes in the graphics
- extension or speed optimizations is of benefit for ALL gfx boards that are
- supported by the CyberGraphX system.
-
- CyberGraphX allows using of 15/16/24 screens independant of the used
- color model. You are able to use the cybergraphics.library functions to
- modify this screens.
-
- Currently there are versions for: Domino
- Picasso II
- Picasso II+
- GVP Spectrum
- Piccolo Z2/3
- Retina BLT Z3
- CyberVision64
- Piccolo SD64
- A2410
- DraCo Altais

- CHANGES:
-
- cybergraphics Revision 40.105
- ------------------------------
- - improved speed auf RECTFMT_LUT8 WritePixelArray()/cybergraphics call
- on 8 bit screens. It should be as fast as WritePixelArray8()/graphics
- patch now. Apps or games which have cybergraphx support and use
- WritePixelArray/RECTFMT_LUT8 instead of WritePixelArray8 may gain a
- litte speed due to the optimized call.
-
- cybergraphics Revision 40.104
- ------------------------------
- - added some code to get powersnap working on truecolour screens
-
- cybergraphics Revision 40.103
- ------------------------------
- - Due to a bug in the rect filling code, swapping/toggling of simple refresh
- windows got really slow unter truecolour screens with previous v2 versions.
- There is really a VISIBLE speed INCREASE with that fixed now when using
- simple refresh windows.
-
- - added flood()/graphics replacement. Programs like PPaint should now work
- completely without chipram when cybergraphics/PLANES2FAST=1
-
- cybergraphics Revision V40.95
- ------------------------------
- - fixes serious bug in FillPixelArray (register A6 was trashed under
- certain conditions)
-
-
- cyberintuition Revision V40.34
- ------------------------------
- - the tags SA_Draggable,SA_DClip,SA_BlockPen,SA_DetailPen are
- now supported correctly
- - fixed some problems with 8bit screens when no SA_Depth tag
- was supplied and the NOCHIPSCREEN is enabled
-
-
- Picasso Revision V1.31
- ----------------------
- - fixed a bgrnd refresh bug with the software crsr in 24bit
- mode
- - A small amount of PicassoII boards was released with a
- CL-5428 chip which has a software crsr bug in 16bit mode
- (the hardware crsr is moved 8 pixels to the left). This is
- now recognized correctly
- - fixed software crsr problems in 24bit mode with newer cgx
- libraries
- - a PicassoII+ board is now detected correctly. the horizontal hotspot
- position was not set correctly in 15/16bit modes (moved 8 pixels to
- the left). This should be fixed
-
-
- Piccolo Revision V1.31
- ----------------------
- - fixed a bgrnd refresh bug with the software crsr in 24 bit
- mode
- - all 68060 related problems should be fixed now
- - fixed software crsr problems in 24bit mode with newer cgx
- libraries
- - modified board init code to (hopefully) fix the well known
- 060/piccolo problems. Nevertheless its more likely a
- hardware bug of the Piccolo boards ......
- - changed modenames to fix pattern matching problems (* changed to ×)
-
-
-
- PiccoSD64 Revision V1.31
- ------------------------
- - fixed a text refresh bug in Z2 mode (finally!). Under certain Z2
- configurations some text areas in shells were not updated correctly
- - modified board init code again. This should fix all 060 related init
- problems now
-
-
- Spectrum Revision V1.30
- ------------------------
- - fixed a bgrnd refresh bug with the software crsr in 24bit
- mode
- - all 68060 related problems should be fixed now
- - fixed software crsr problems in 24bit mode with newer cgx
- libraries/
- - changed modenames to fix pattern matching problems (* changed to ×)
