+Ksarul Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 I don't think Alexander Hulpke ever released the source code to YAPP, although he may have done so after I returned to the US and lost contact with him. I don't remember ever trying to print in color with it though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, does anyone know where the source can be found? Beery You have to do a screen dump video to a Video Camera and port to Mac that is how I used to do it. 1. Get screen pic on YAPP 2. Hook up Video Cam from TI99/4A (of course it is only composite) 3. Make a video 4. Hook up cam to Mac 5. Use make built in Movie Maker to make a pic you can print to color printer Ex wife threw away my box of these pics I made.

+9640News Posted April 30, 2020 Author Share Posted April 30, 2020 If screen dumps with a camera is how it is done, then it would be better to run YAPP under MAME and just do a screen or window capture. I've got the source to MyArt, though I do not recall if it printed color either and there is not an easy way to get MDOS/MyArt to print to PI.PIO. Since YAPP was so close to MyArt, was hoping source code had been released. Beery 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick99 Posted May 1, 2020 Share Posted May 1, 2020 RXB, I watched the video on the XHI Demo and after 2:38 min in you mention that the screen looks messed up. I tested XHI on my Geneve and it did the same thing, that because XHI needs to have disk two in DSK2 when it shall load the picture that should be shown, but when there´s no picture to load from DSK2 this mess turns up. If I´m correct XHI demo uses at least two MyArt images during the Demo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick99 Posted May 1, 2020 Share Posted May 1, 2020 (edited) Have to look that up, but I also notice that when I wanted to start the demo from the menu I got the same error as you got in the beginning of the video. This is because (on my disks) the menu is on disk one and the lines demo is on disk two and it should be placed in the second diskdrive on the system to work properly. If I´m correct, but this is in my memory from the 90´s. When the "mess" shows up XHI should load a picture and show it, then it split the screen into four and display the same image but in smaller size in these four screen locations. And then it split the screen into eight or twelve and show the picture in even smaller size at these eight or twelve locations. So when the image isn´t loaded there will be lines shown for some reason I don´t know. ? Having a hard time finding the right words to explain, english isn´t my native language, but I hope it makes sense.

I know there are differences, also visible on my hardware, but I need another hardware output to compare. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry I live at my Girlfriends house now and all my TI hardware is in the Garage roof storage. Maybe someone with TI hardware could do it, also my TIM Card died many many years ago. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Torrax Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 (edited) Here's disk images for YAPP v5.5; XHI v3.0; and XHI v3.6 (All require a V9938 or V9958). XHI v3.6 has a program called HARDCOPY for printing images. Also there is a source file on the XHI v3.0 disk. XHI_V3-0.DSK XHI_V3-6.DSK YAPP_V5-5.DSK Edited November 27, 2022 by Torrax Fixed disk images 7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
