- I've lately got back into playing one of my favorite Mac games, Spacward
- Ho!. However, although I find it works generally quite well under
- Executor (even plays sounds!), there is one somewhat annoying thing that
- the game does: when selecting menus, sometimes it takes a LONG time for
- the menu to appear. Also, moving the mouse around the playing field,
- selecting planets and moving ships, etc. can get sluggish. All other
- programs (e.g. Microsoft Word, Solarian, etc.) work fine; Spacward is the
- only program that exhibits this weirdness.
-
- Anyone know how to alleviate this, or is it not solvable (and I have to
- live with it)?
-
- FYI, I'm running E/DOS 1.99q5, on a Windows 95 machine booted into a
- straight DOS prompt, with no TSR's or drivers loaded except my Logitech
- busmouse driver, Smartdrive, and UNIVBE.
-
- Please let me know by email and/or to the list. Thanks!
