Working with jpg in Deluxe Paint V
« on: January 14, 2010, 02:48:04 PM »
Hi,

I've just bought a brand new PC :-P with an i7 processor and I want to install Amiga Forever. I want to use Deluxe Paint V but as I have lots of jpgs I plan to use them with Amiga Paint Programs. Personal Paint is very good but I prefer Deluxe Paint, is it possible to open jpgs directly? I think there was a program available on the Aminet that did exactly that but I am not sure. I prefer this than to use another tool to convert the jpg files to iffs, can anyone give me a hint about the name of this program?


Thanks!


Amiga 4ever :afro:

Many thanks for the answers! Amigans still rule :afro:

To be honest I am having lots of trouble running Amiga Forever and Deluxe Paint. First of all, I can't configure more than 8 megas of fast RAM, Could it be possible to use more than 2 megas of chip RAM with Amiga Forever so I could "cheat" Deluxe PAint (I think not)?

I want to use a paint program, PC or Amiga, that let me use the brush perspective as Deluxe Paint does. What I mean is the way you could "cut" a brush, position it in 3d and fill the screen. I haven`t found ANYTHING (excuse me for the capital letters) on the PC that handles perspective in this way, not to mention you could make cool animations with it.

I know this question, a Deluxe Paint clone on the PC, has arise many times on this forums but I can't find a PC program that handles perspective in this way.

Deluxe Paint was wonderful, it even can work with 24 bit files, but it doesn't handle non Amiga screen modes at all and it can't use more graphic memory :-( than the 2 megs of the Aga chipset.

Maybe someone could probe me wrong but, do you know any program that handles perspective as Deluxe Paint does?

I have an I7  with 5 gigs of RAM and still remember the magic times I spent with Deluxe Paint making animations, editing pictures I grabbed with Digi View and... I miss this magic. :angry:
