- Hi,
-
- Acorn Computing managed to mess up the demo of Fervour on their disc. I
- wrote my own compression software etc so that the program would work
- from a compressed state but NOT inside ArcFS. The reason being that it saves
- the HiScores and level statistics when you quit the game. Unfortunately
- the pd ArcFS is read only. So: Please copy the game out of the archive
- BEFORE running it.
-
- 1Mb users will probably have found out that the demo
- simply does NOT work. This is a problem with the demo ONLY and not the
- actual game. If you email me a copy of the !Run and !Boot files then I
- shall check them (to check that you actually have the demo already) and
- then send you the latest version of the demo which will actually work.
