Hey Paul. I have downloaded everything I can find on the CGcolormax2. I checked on the gitgizmo website and it says my order still needs to be processed so probably won't see it till the week after if I am lucky.
I tried running the DOS version that they say in the manual you can use to write and test programs to see if MMBasic will fill your needs. Well I spent some time writing a small program to generate some engine gauge faces and to test the colors and appearance to give some sort of reference when I run in on the cgmax with it arrives. Well to my dismay I found out half of the commands do not work in the dos version, nor do graphics, or special functions, I/O's....hmm just print screen commands when in DOS.

So I will have to wait and see when my cgmax arrives.
What have you done on the CGMAX? What functions or graphics have you tested or tried?

I never tried that. As far as I can tell that is not a Geoff Graham
product.

I did not spend any time doing the graphics other than Locate.

This is the authors web site and IMHO it is better than the Gizmo
site. He does list the DOS simulator.

Here is the Quick Basic exe. Play with this as MM BASIC was
patterned after this. Most commands are near the same.
It has somewhat similar graphic commands.

Are you running DOS stand alone or are your running it
in a command window.

If stand alone unzip this and run the original QB.

I also have DOS that may boot off a USB. Of course
you will have to go into the set up and set it to boot
off the USB.
