- 2.0 Known problems
- ==================
- o Joystick control 'absolut' is unstable.----------------------------------
- The physical joystick hardware is implemented very cheap in the most
- cases. Soundeffects for example may move the racket a little bit
- randomly.
- o The game seems to pause sometimes with heavy action.---------------------
- Some sound drivers use very much time to stop Sound. If you have one
- of these, you may disable sound effects.
- o No second mouse support with Windows NT.
- o Window to small (some graphics are cut off)? Try a smaller system font!
- o The 32 Bit Version of Winbrick96 did not run with Windows 32s
- (extension to Windows 3.x)!
