HCW FB24 ADI C-Scape Consulting Corp. Version 2.2.1

Thank you for using  this release of C-Scape Consulting Corp.'s
ADI driver for AutoDESK AutoCAD 11, AutoCAD 12, 3D-Studio 1.0, 3D-Studio 2.0,
and AutoSHADE 2.0.

This software is Copyright (c) 1992,1993 by C-Scape Consulting Corp.

To install this driver, copy the contents of this diskette to a directory
on your hard disk, such as C:\ADI.  For example:

	md C:\ADI
	xcopy a:*.* C:\ADI

Edit your AUTOEXEC.BAT file to set the RCPADI and/or RDPADI environment
variables to point to the protected mode driver in the C:\ADI directory.
You must also set the FONTPATH environment variable to where the fonts
are stored.  They should be in the same directory, but if you have your
own X-Windows style ".snf" fonts, you can point FONTPATH there.

(Add these lines to AUTOEXEC.BAT)
	SET RCPADI=C:\ADI\RCPHCW42.EXP
	SET RDPADI=C:\ADI\RCPHCW42.EXP
	SET DSPADI=C:\ADI\RCPHCW42.EXP
	SET FONTPATH=C:\ADI

These lines are also in the file "ADI.BAT" on this diskette.

Now, reboot your system.

Edit your APX kernel.cfg file to change the "memratio" parameter to be
less than one (1).  Something like:

memratio = 7/8
(If you have 8 MB of i860 RAM)
or
memratio = 5/6
(If you have 6 MB of i860 RAM)
This step is very important.  Usually, making the numerator one less than
the denominator is sufficient.

You MUST be using APX Release 2.0 or greater, you MUST have your
"commbase" parameter set to 0xe0000 in your kernel.cfg file.
commbase = 0xe0000


To start the i860-APX portion of the ADI driver, do the following:
	boot860
	run860 C:/adi/adi860

The 'run860' command should respond with a line indicating the version
of the ADI driver.  The line should look like the first line in this
file.

You must now run your application, be it AutoCAD, AutoSHADE or 3D Studio
and reconfigure it to use the new driver as both a display and rendering
driver.  The configuration procedure will allow you to choose the font
you like, and the background color of your choice.

New Features:
Bird's Eye view is activated by the: BIRDS command in AutoCAD (11 or 12).
(BIRD1, BIRD2, BIRD3, BIRD4 position the bird's eye window in different
corners of the screen.  You can move the window around once it is up too).
You then use the mouse to move around the picture.  The left mouse
button will toggle zoom factor or pan depending on the state.  Initially,
it is in PAN mode.  To make the ZOOM take effect, simply click the right
button (you can also just follow the instructions on the bottom of the
screen.)  To cancel bird's eye without zooming, move into the bird's eye
window and move around in there until you get the prompt telling you how
to get out.  (You will eventually be able to type ^C to get out too.)

Known Bug(s):
3D studio behaves non-intuitively when you make the rendering and display
screens the same.  After the picture is rendered, wait a minute or so,
and 3D-Studio redraws the picture again (faster this time).  If you do
not wait, and start to press buttons, you can hang 3D studio.  After it
draws the picture the second time, you can then CLICK the mouse to return
to the display editor.

Also, in 3D-Studio, in the materials editor: Depending on the font you
choose, you may get an extra white pixel left on the slider bars for
the RGB and other sliders.  This is a known problem with 3D-Studio 1.0.
