[comp.sys.amiga] Problem with anticbs demo

arxt@sphinx.uchicago.edu (patrick palmer) (12/23/88)

I tried to run Leo's animation "anticbs", from comp.binaries.amiga,
but it opens the screen (and shows a picture) for about 1/2 second, then fails 
with the message:
	illegal op value for delta mode.
and a GURU follows if I proceed to do anything new.

I had the animation file in rad: (in FFS).  Then I copied it to ram: with
the same result.  My showanim is version 3.5 (from Fred Fish disk 100), I 
have an B2000 with the Micron 2meg board and a GVP hardcard.

Can someone enlighten me about this problem?

I had this problem too.

I didn't have any problems after, but then I'm not sure I used the machine
before turning it off after that.

I ran it from disk and it still didn't work.  The system I was trying to view
the animation on is an A2000 w/ A2090 + Miniscribe 8425, and A2052 (2Mb).

Me too - I'd like to see Leo's latest creation!

I decided to wait and see if anyone else would reply, but no one has, so...

I also had this problem, until I switched to ShowAnim _4.0_, which I got off
of Fish Disk 132, the Berserk disk.  After I used the new version of
ShowAnim, there were no additional problems.
