| I seem to remember that the input code (particularly the mouse handling) was not system friendly, and so doesn't tend to work on Amithlon (nor presumably OS4). Great pity, given all the other work they put into RTG & AHI support.

I think it has always been much higher than that.
It's a good 7 years since I last played it. The graphics are a bit shaky and there aren't any stairs or outdoor areas. It's a bit like a better version of Wolfenstein 3D.
It's a pleasurable blaster nonetheless.Last edited by -Sam- on 09-Mar-2006 at 04:42 PM.

count me in too - dont think I *ever* got it working satisfactorily, even on my
A1200 - it only had 8MB fast, so often as not, no sound

| I`m sure it worked when I tried it on my Amithlon box here, maybe it was uae ON Amithlon I can`t quite remember. I was playing it though that`s for sure - it does up to 640x480 as I recall.

Yeah, it does work on Amithlon, and very well too. Playing in 640x480 (highest res the game supports iirc) and 24 bit color looks very nice (for an amiga game) and runs great. A1/OS4 obviously wont run as well, but I suspect well enough. |

Yes, but it can be interpolated to 640x480 if you have a fast processor, IIRC.
