!AWMay93/Goodies/PoolSprite/!Help

This website contains an archive of files for the Acorn Electron, BBC Micro, Acorn Archimedes, Commodore 16 and Commodore 64 computers, which Dominic Ford has rescued from his private collection of floppy disks and cassettes.

Some of these files were originally commercial releases in the 1980s and 1990s, but they are now widely available online. I assume that copyright over them is no longer being asserted. If you own the copyright and would like files to be removed, please contact me.

Sprite Pool

Instructions:
             
             Load the !PoolSprite application as normal, once loaded you
will see a menu appear allowing you to save the Sprite Pool from either the
RMA, RAM, or a new set of sprites.


Description:

            This application allows you to use the sprites in different 
programs, that use sprites, to see the sprites you have saved, just load
the !Paint application, then just load the  sprite files into !Paint to
see your new sprites.
            
Warning:

         This application must be copied to a blank formatted disk, before 
it can save any sprites, as the version of ARCfs on the cover disk will 
not allow any form of saving.
