| 4061.1 | STACK 10000? | DECWET::DAVIS | You always get what you deserve | Wed Aug 29 1990 15:59 | 8 |
| What size is your Stack? I had a problem with Silver SV and the phone
support person at Impulse told me to make sure my stack is set to at
least 10000. He also told me to make sure my memory wasn't fragmented
and recommended a PD program called, "Sweep" to "free up" memory. I
now use a script to run Silver which first runs Sweep, then starts Silver
with a stack of 10000.

| Re: .1
My stacksize is 10000. I have found several programs (SEDT for one)
that require it. The "default" amiga size is 4000.
Re: .2
There are 2 ways (or 2 places, depending on how you look at it)
to change your stacksize.
The first is to apply the INFO menu option against the Shell and/or
CLI icon, change the stack to 10000, and select SAVE.
The other is to use the CLI/SHELL command "STACK" as in:
> STACK 10000
I have found that changing the icon value doesn't always do it,
so I have placed a STACK command in my shell-startup as well as
correcting the icon.

| Re: .3
Note that changing the stack size in the icon only has effect when you
run the program using Workbench using that icon.

| 4061.5 | Who is Zero? | SDOGUS::WILLIAMS | TOPGUN | Wed Aug 29 1990 20:07 | 26 |
| If you have the new 2091 controller card you will also want to pick
up "bangzero". It is public domain and it will fix location zero
on the Amiga to be a zero. (Impulse and several other developers
don't seem to have read the developer's manual before doing their
programming.) Just place the bangzero into your startup-sequence
(S: directory). Right after "setpatch" is a fine place. You can
use "ED" from a SHELL if you are not particular about your editors.
Just start up a shell from the workbench and enter the following
line:
ED S:Startup-sequence
The above line will put you into the editor and allow you to use
the cursor keys to position yourself. To open a line just enter
a <CR> at the beginning of the line (below the place you want to
enter the new line). Enter your line as:
C:BANGZERO
if you have put BANGZERO into the "C:" directory. Hit the "escape"
key once and an "*" will appear at the bottom of the window. Enter
"X" and hit <CR>. Magic will occur. Reboot and you should be all
set. The memory was not wasted (if you needed bangzero) by the
way. You'll need lots of memory and hard drive as you render and
sculpt!
Good luck.

| 4061.8 | "Can't save Cell [OK] | TROA09::ITHOMSON | | Thu Aug 30 1990 12:22 | 10 |
| Hi guys,
I rushed home and booted the machine. I did 'STACK 10000'
and then 'TURBO'. Guess what? It worked, but every time I try to
'Open New' and then try clicking twice on the first cell (001)
I get 'Can't save Cell [OK]'. It then goes to the Object editor
and when I exit it says 'Can't open Cell [OK]'. This keeps going
on even when I try setting the path to DF0: with a newly formated
diskette, or hard disk. I can't render anything. Help!!

| 4061.9 | Call Impulse | DECWET::DAVIS | You always get what you deserve | Thu Aug 30 1990 15:53 | 5 |
| I suggest you call Impulse (800 328 0184 or 612 566 0221). They are
pretty good at answering your questions(although the phone person(s) I get
usually sounds bored as heck).
