I think WinV2 hates my video card. For some reason I cannot for the life of me get fading to work correctly using palettemorph(). Basically it does nothing. Also I'm still having problems with selecting past tile 128 in maped. I don't know why my video card would cause this but hey, it's a computer ^_~.
I've got an Intel i810e integrated chipset and DX8.1 if it helps any.

.. I hate CompuServ. it just ate my post AGAIN.
Short version: You maped problem is really weird and no one else has it, try a different maped.exe.
Regarding palettemorph, you MUST use ShowPage() in your fade loop or the palettemorph won't show up. This is because winv2 is emulating 8bpp mode in 16bpp/32bpp color.
Also, as a general rule of thumb in winv2, be sure to use UpdateControls() once per frame or so, this will keep the windows message queue pumped and keep it responding to move/resize/close/etc events as a Windows application should.

Seems I'm becoming famous for having wierd problems that no one else does like tvs not line breaking my links correctly. Anyway, yeah I'll probably go back to the origional me2 blegh. If it helps anything maped will do one of three things, a)crash b)select a tile that is not the tile I wanted or c)come up with random garbage for the tile. Now if I cycle past tile 128 with a in map making mode all is happy.

Is this updated in the docs I haven't read? ^_~

Well I'm almost positive maped errors wouldn't be related to my video card, but at any rate it's intergrated into my motherboard. I run win98. I think it's a certain version of maped with the error.
