Hi Marcus,
They are performing a different process
than we are. They are updating the magnificent product FRACTINT. It is still a
classic bit of software and the inspiration for much of ManpWIN code. I am indebted
to the authors of that program for ideas. I chose a different pathway. Both are
valid.
Best regards,
Paul.

PAUL:
As
you said some time ago,, Fractint and Winfract personnel are only involved in
changing environment and 'gadgets' and not implementing new fractals or having
any other 'growing attitude', or really upgrading those programs, That´s how
and when begins their senescence, and the obsolescence we are sorrow to feel.

Paul,
I'm interested. What development environment are you using?

Dear Friends,
I have been doing a lot of work on ManpWIN. Let me know if
there is any interest. I’m happy to share source code if anyone is interested.
The basic engine is based on Winfract.

Re: [Fractdev] [Fractint] Fractint under FREEDOS from USB drive
Occurs to
me that this thread is more appropriate for the fractdev mailing list than
fractint, so I will crosspost this to fractdev, then follow up there. I'm not
saying that there shouldn't be ANY discussion of booting fractint from USB
here, but if we get into lengthy discussions of arcane hardware issues (which I
certainly enjoy), we may be getting a little off topic for this list.
We'll see how it goes. Anyone interested in sharing technical
information about running fractint on various platforms please join me in
Fractdev. When I have something to share with end users, I will report here.
Please understand I am not trying to shush anyone up, so if you'd like to see
this discussion here, by all means say so.

I have
found that it depends on the level of USB that you have installed on the
computer, as well as the pluggin drive itself. Some thumb drives work on
some of my older machines, and some do not.
The
puzzle is that I have three self-built machines of different ages that all have
Gigabyte motherboards, AMD chips, and Award bioses. The oldest and youngest
boot USB and CF, but the middle machine does not. The point is that these are
not dissimilar, just different ages. Doesn't worry me that one doesn't work, I
guess I am just compulsive. I'll compare the bios settings, and see if there's
some setting causing different behavior. I really want to try the middle
machine because it is the only one with NVIDIA (non-motherboard) graphics,
which some folks have suggested might have better VESA support.
I do have
a plan B. I found a 2.5 inch 80gb SATA drive in my junk drawer that came out of
a Dell E1505 Laptop when I upgraded the drive. I'll blow away the XP on
it and format with FreeDOS. That should certainly work in a dual boot
configuration on the middle machine.
Followups
to fractdev please.
Tim
