- At work (I work in a software store, and we get bored when nobody's in the
- store, so.....) we were playing with Executor (on a Compaq Pentium 100
- with 16 megs, 4X, cheap Vid. Card, Cirrus Logic I think), and none of the
- programs we tried worked.
-
- Dramatica Writers Dream Kit (This program, had it worked, most likely
- would have made one of the guys their license Executor), died with
- something about not being able to load a file.
-
- ARPLE (Apple software for sales info, also includes lotsa demo stuff),
- won't run because of no Quick Time, in fact the installer (which doesn't
- need Quick Time) dies.
-
- PegLeg (game, don't recall who makes it) seems to work beautifully, albeit
- choppy.
-
- Act for Mac (latest version), wouldn't run.
-
- Strata TypeStudio (or something along those lines) wouldnn't run (most
- likely FPU problem)
-
- 3D XT v 2.5 (all the info I have) wouldn't run.
-
- These last two probably required FPU units, because both have to do with
- 3D renedering.
-
- I think thats everything we tried tonight, if I come up with anything
- else, will let you know. On all the ones that died, I could see something
- flickering on the screen, like its going from Graphics mode to text mode,
- back to graphics, most likely a dump of crash information.
-
- I hope this helps someone (ARDI) out there. One of the things that really
- kills our testing is this 10 minute limit.
-
- Does anyone know if KPT Bryce 2.0 works, or is that something we need to
- try?
