I've uploaded a few Plasmas to the Graphics area of the Yahoo group. They use GFXLIB for fast Bitmap plotting.

Enjoy.

I can't get any of the executables to work (by running them directly from the group - I don't waste time and effort downloading them to my PC first). They all give the same error message:

Code:
PROCLoadBMP:  Unable to load or find C:\Documents and Settings\RTR\Local Setting
s\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\7ZDBNL8W\plasma.bmp in module C:\DOCUME~1
\RTR\LOCALS~1\Temp\BBC2F.tmp\GFXLIB 

This is typically caused by assuming that the 'current' directory is the same as @dir$, which is never a valid assumption.

Further: I've just discovered that the .BBC versions don't work either (again, run directly from the group Files list as I always do). I get the same error message as with the .EXEs.

Assuming that you actually bothered to test the programs after uploading them wink, I expect the reason they worked for you is that a necessary file was 'left behind' on your PC after running the programs locally.

Hmm. I did test them from the website so it must be that the plasma.bmp was left behind, which is odd as I specifically delete it after loading it back in. Oh well. Back to the drawing board.
