Update to ManpWIN and Problems WINFract
G'day Friends, I've just launched ManpWIN 3.01n. Some of the latest additions: 1. Direct animations to GIF files and MPEG files. Record so far is 100,000 frame MPEG. 2. Run the parser from within the program without needing to use files. This allows very fast development time. 3. Addition of a large number of interesting Flarium fractals that weren't already included in the Tierazon list. I have included the latest sources at: http://www.deleeuw.com.au/download/MapnWINSrc.zip The current executable is: http://www.deleeuw.com.au/download/SetupManpWIN.exe I've been trying to get orbits to work in the latest versions of WINFract and get a floating-point error when I try to use "Orbits" on the Basic Options dialogue box. Does anyone have any ideas how to prevent this in the executable? Has anyone created a Bignum library for Windows 32 bit using assembler? My Bignum c code is too slow and I only have the sources for 16 bit assembler. I have no idea how to convert it to 32 bit. Any assistance is greatly appreciated. Thanks, Paul. ---------------------------------------------------------- Paul de Leeuw Computers NSW Central Coast, Australia Email: pdeleeuw@deleeuw.com.au www: <http://www.deleeuw.com.au> ABN 72 360 822 562 ----------------------------------------------------------

Thank you too, Paul. Please feel free to use any of the code to enhance Fractint. I think that the team could build a really amazing program as we continue to work together.

Paul,
I've been trying to get orbits to work in the latest versions of WINFract and get a floating-point error when I try to use "Orbits" on the Basic Options dialogue box.
Does anyone have any ideas how to prevent this in the executable?
This appears to always have been broken in WINFract. I'll have a look at it.
Has anyone created a Bignum library for Windows 32 bit using assembler? My Bignum c code is too slow and I only have the sources for 16 bit assembler. I have no idea how to convert it to 32 bit.
Shouldn't be needed. Look in big.inc and comment out BIG16. Since I have never tried this, I don't know if breaks anything. Jonathan
Hi Jonathan, Thanks for your help. I know nothing about 80*86 assembler. I haven't coded in assembler since the 6502 :o) All I can do is to try it and see how I go. It would be great to get some speed out of Bignum. Thanks matie, Paul. ---------------------------------------------------------- Paul de Leeuw Computers NSW Central Coast, Australia Email: pdeleeuw@deleeuw.com.au www: <http://www.deleeuw.com.au> ABN 72 360 822 562 ---------------------------------------------------------- -----Original Message----- From: fractdev-bounces@mailman.xmission.com [mailto:fractdev-bounces@mailman.xmission.com] On Behalf Of Jonathan Osuch Sent: Sunday, 3 June 2012 8:30 AM To: Fractint developer's list Subject: Re: [Fractdev] Update to ManpWIN and Problems WINFract Paul,

Hi Jonathan, My MS C++ 2008 doesn't seem to assemble asm code. How would one create a static library that would link in to a 32 bit windows code? I suspect this might be too hard. It was a long shot :o) Thanks for the suggestion any way.

Hi Jonathan, Sorry to pester you, but you seem to know what you are talking about. I downloaded MASM32 and when I tried to assemble BIGNUMA.ASM, I got a large number of errors because the assembler couldn't find bignum_seg. Somehow I still think this is using the old 16 bit memory model. I have played with various options in BIG.INC and still haven't made any progress. I suspect that if we can crack a few simple ideas up front, we can create a fast 32 bit bignum library to link into all our windoze code. Any further tips are greatly appreciated. Thanks, Paul. ---------------------------------------------------------- Paul de Leeuw Computers NSW Central Coast, Australia Email: pdeleeuw@deleeuw.com.au www: <http://www.deleeuw.com.au> ABN 72 360 822 562 ---------------------------------------------------------- -----Original Message----- From: fractdev-bounces@mailman.xmission.com [mailto:fractdev-bounces@mailman.xmission.com] On Behalf Of Jonathan Osuch Sent: Sunday, 3 June 2012 8:30 AM To: Fractint developer's list Subject: Re: [Fractdev] Update to ManpWIN and Problems WINFract Paul,
