- I downloaded Guardian.DMS, and successfully extracted it. But it won't
- run on my Amiga. I have an Amiga 2000 HD (52 meg) with 1 meg of Chip ram
- and 1 Meg of Fast Ram. I also have the AT BridgeBoard w/5.25" drive and a single
- 3.5" Amiga drive. I have the 1 Meg ECS that does both NTSC and PAL.
- Even if I boot into PAL mode, or killchip (down to 512k) or use KillFast (and
- varying combinations of these) it still won't work.
-
- It will boot, show the picture of the winged-skull thingy in front of the
- mountains, load for a few more seconds then the screen starts hicupping
- with these weird diagonal stripes. As if the sync signals went nuts.
-
- So if you have Guardian, please mail me and tell me about your system
- and or where I can get a working version (assuming my system isn't the problem)
- . Also I'm using 1.3 ROMs but that shouldn't make a difference.
-
- Wouldn't it be nice if all these European Crackin/Hacking/Swapping groups
- could actually write software that works right on NTSC machines, regardless
- of memory (fast or chip) or number of drives, or processor used, or clock
- speed, or Agnus present, or version of the OS (come ON it should at least
- work with 1.2 & 1.3)?
- Wouldn't it be nice if the F10 became the defact-standard for turning on
- the LACE bit so we could RECIRD these great demos? In the states, Cable
- companies have to provide Public Access TV channels. But if the demo
- only works in PAL, and won't allow the lace bit to be set, it can't be shown!
- Wouldn't it be nice if the F9 key was the standard for toggling PAL/NTSC
- mode. Wouldn't it be nice if all megademos came with options on their
- bootblocks to set the # of drives, PAL/NTSC mode, LACE on/off, or set the
- amount of chip/fast memory available? Even better if the settings could be
- saved on disk!
-
- Anyway, if you use Guardian, or have (are into) Demos, mail me:
-
-
-
- obmm@sunyit.edu and/or obmm@pool.info.sunyit.edu
-
- The last one will probably work best!
