Install TV paint w/o the floppy dance?
« on: December 27, 2002, 02:51:37 AM »
It seems that TV Paint is freely available, but needs a real amiga with floppies to install.  I'd like to install it on my emulators like Amithlon.  Is there a way to obtain it in a more uncompressed state?  I do have a wideband connection.  Thanks for any help!

Give me your Email address and I'll send the LHA which you only need
to un-arc somewhere.

Do you want full TV Paint or TV Paint Jr?

The full one is about 5Mb compressed, Jr fits on 1 floppy.

Got it thanks, I'll send it shortly.
If your mail account can't handle huge attachments, let me know and
I'll make it available by FTP.

Now that I think of it, I am not sure if I can handle
a 5 meg email.  I can ask support tomorrow, or ftp..

If they are DMS files then use the DMS2HD package available from Aminet.

I did that when I installed TVPaint from that archive and it worked fine for me.

@Colmiga:
You can probably use RAD: as well.
Though I'm not sure how some of those kind of things work under UAE.

@Lo:
I think it was about 6Mb in total, but I didn't get a bounce from it,
so looks like it went through OK.
