- Currently the F18 simulator is something that we put together to
- demonstrate the capabilities of the reality engine. You really have to use
- it with a multiprocessor RE to have any fun on it. It uses our new gaming
- architecture called VEGA which is locked to a particular machine so we
- can't easily send it out in demo form.
-
- We recently upgraded the simulator to utilitize real-time reflective
- memory cards for 1 to 16 machines to play eachother on a net. Who knows,
- maybe it will work itself into some high end game some day.
-
- I have to admit, it's really hard to get any work done with that game
- waiting to be played.
