Subject: Re: [Fractint] [FRACTINT] Round Trip

will someone here please briefly explain how to use a par file to generate an image?

Certainly!
Assuming that you use Dos Fractint - (any windows version will fail) -
copy the par file into your Factint par folder. Use a separate file with the
name or add it to an existing file with copy and paste.
After Fractint start type "2" and you see the Par folder.
Execute the desired Par. If itīs a list with your Par in it
scroll down until it shows the desired name. Execute.
It the Par file includes the frm - all Jimīs Pars do -
thatīs all.
If  it does not include the frm you should have it in your
Frm folder under any file name. Fractint will find it. 
MFR_13 is also included in the Dropbox link. See the
post following later today.
Copy it into your Frm Folder.
;
If youīre using any Fractint windows version you will
have to install Dos Fractint. Several versions are
available - I definetely recommend DOS Box SVN
which is not a ressource killer like others and
100% compatible. Same for a bootstick which will
start dos using the bootoption, mostly F8, on system
start. Tim supplied the links, here again:

Any questions are welcome
