• Bugfix: Painter zoom mode was not able to reach the 0 position sometimes, and 255 position too, mainly if you switch between zoom factors.
  • Bugfix: Zoom area coordinates displayed wrong at zoom levels 4x and 2x.
  • Bugfix: Danielo's JPG/GIF loading routine caused a black line on the top of screen.
  • Bugfix: SAM Mode3 error diffusion asked for ink method, which is nonsense.
  • Bugfix: Superview did not react on clicking on extended area of hires pictures.
  • Bugfix: Double size in viewer for LCE was not working.
  • Bugfix: Painter save saves now 6912 byte colour screens if attributes are not the same all over the screen. Previous version saved 6144 byte screens from painter if conversion option said, the screen length is 6144 byte (Thanks to Pgyuri from WSS Team for pointing me this).
  • Bugfix: Smaller problems (I do not remember which anymore, because I fixed them on Forever Five party) fixed.
  • Improvement: After selection of SAM Midtone, the maxdiff slider automatically jumps to optimal position.
  • Addition: New Error diffusion methods: Stevenson, Fan (Floyd/Steinberg modification) and Sierra 2-4A, increases the number of selectable error diffusion matrixes to a total of 10.
  • Addition: New b/w ZX conversion modes: 3x3 cluster dither (diffusion & dispersion).
  • Addition: New SAM Colour conversion modes: Colour error diffusion (finally I did it!!!) for mode 4 and 3. Mode 3 looks better on real SAM than on PC. There are 2 quantisation methods for error diffusion Mode 4, the one with simple addition/subtraction works faster and offers in most cases fair results, the second one uses Pythagoras distance detection in RGB cube, but has some rare problems with some pictures, so check which one suits your pictures better.
  • Addition: SAM Coupe mode 4 interlace added. It scales up the image to 256x384, and threats it like a hires image.
  • Addition Colour error diffusion ZX modes: SCR,MLT and IFLI.
  • Addition: "Mail to the author" menu option added. It opens Outlock and you can send a mail to me, please do not misuse it.
  • Addition: Ramdisc in painter. Press "S" (spare) to exchange the picture with the one saved in spare memory, the picture in ramdisc remains unchanged even if you load a different picture and convert it to a different mode (please keep in mind that you exchanging brushes between the pictures converted in different modes, will produce bad results.
  • Addition: Some more tooltips added.
  • Addition: Error diffusion got a percentage-trackbar, this defines the distribution of the error in %(0-100, 100% is the default value). Inspiration for this feature came from ConGo by mr. Matting, as the C64 and ZX can deal with reduced error diffusion much better, so I applied it too, but I think, it is okay because mr. Matting want to use my idea of transparency in ConGo's painter too.
  • Addition: AVI conversion
  • Change: Standard method of error diffusion is not "simple" but "F/S dither" now.
  • Change: SAM Palette base does not change the on-screen picture brightness anymore.
  • Change: Some small optimisations of code, mainly for saving memory and make the program a small bit faster.
