- After testing with 1.99o3 (the *.exe version), I found out
- something to tell:
-
- 1) After pressed <Enter> in the welcome screen, some text is
- displayed overlay with the welcome screen, it may be some error message
- but I cannot catch as it is too fast to be disappear.
- 2) The problem in (1) is appear if playing solitate game provide
- with executor.
- 3) The shareware version of Ultima 3 cannot be run. When in the
- welcome screen, some error message is displayed and the last line is
- about color something like "log2 color<=3" and a window with a button
- without any text is displayed. After pressing the button, exit to dos!
- May be some System 7 call is not implement with executor which required
- by this game.
