The Info File
į Welcome ®ÄÄÄ
We finally managed to release the first issue of Insight. To bad we have
to conclude that this is a major delayed issue :( Well, not to worry as
we already said it is our first release and we are sure many will follow.
Hope you enjoy anyway!
į Hardware ®ÄÄÄ
This magazine needs about 500kb base memory for Gus soundcards to work
properly, and a bit more if you don't use a Gus. The soundcards used
are the standard cards : Gus, Sb, Pas and WSS. The welcome-intro only
supports Gus.
In case you have a sb/pas sound card, it is required to enable some
EMS memory, 512 Kb should be fine.
VGA:
If your mouse messes up the screen, we advise you to use the Univbe Vesa
driver (included within PACKAGE.ZIP) and your problem should be over.
For some odd reason it seems that some Videocards (mostly Vesa2.0) will
not properly function. Tested on a Mach64 PCI vesa2.0 card, we couldn't
get the screen 100% right.
What you can do incase of troubles? Try using the vesa driver which came
with your videocard, or rebooting your PC and only loading HIMEM.SYS + your
Ultrasettings sometimes does the trick aswell (very strange).
MOUSE:
Something about the mouse, Insight has a build in mousedriver which should
work fine on every mouse available. Therefore do NOT load your own
mousedriver, if everything works out then the internal mousedriver should
work a bit better then the usual microsoft/genius drivers. Incase Insight
could not detect your mouse then there is an init error and you should
try again with your mousedriver loaded in advance. If you have one of
those exotic mouse types then you might encounter some oddities,
eventhough these aren't 100% fixed, you should be able to make your way
through the magazine.
(we are verry sorry that your mouse isn't supported that well, but as this
bugs was noticed when we wanted to release the magazine we didn't want to
wait much longer as it was delayed enough already).
If you are using no mousedriver (in memory) the mousepointer will scroll
fluently, incase you do use a mousedriver (loaded in config/autoexec) the
mousepointer MIGHT move with 8 pixels at a time.
If you encounter slow page swapping within the interface, then use some kind
of smartdrive or defrag your HD. The pages are read from disk, every time
you switch one. (We had some memory problems with the magazine, so we had
to make this simple loader instead)
į Parameters ®ÄÄÄ
If you have any troubles with certain aspects then you could fiddle with
one of the options below:
BLABLA.EXE /? - Help screen
/NOSOUND - Select no playback device
/M:x - Initialize moues at com port x
com1 to com4 are supported, default is com1
/FORCEVESA - Initialize mode 101h without exception.
(This might cause problems to your
svga card, so only use it if you are
very sure you have a vesa card).
