Is there a patch to make paintworks gold work under GS/OS? (sorry, I'm too lazy to try to find out exactly what version numbers I have of everything.) I think there's been something here, but I couldn't find anything in the last several months of trafffic TMPLee@dockmaster.ncsc.mil

Get the May 1989 issue of InCider/A+ (The Russian Apples issue) and
look in the Apple Clinic. There is a patching program there, although it
has never worked for me!

Yes there is a patch for Paintworks Gold to run under GS/OS. Unfortunately
I can't be more help than that because I don't have either but I do
remember reading about it.

Here is a message from ages ago for the Paintworks Gold patch. I've been using it for years with this patch and 'no problemo Uncie Herb'. :-) Patch was written by Jason Harper. Search the program file for the bytes C9 08 00 D0 CE, and change the $08 to a $7F. It's trying to allocate a 640K block of contigious memory, and is only checking in the first 512K of your computer for the start of such a block: this renders any memory beyond the 1.125MB (512+640K) point unusable by the program. With the patch, it will (hopefully) keep on looking for a suitable block throughout the computer's installed RAM. -- Jerry Penner | jpenne@bode.ee.ualberta.ca Edmonton, Alberta, Canada | OR alberta!bode!jpenne
