Re:Nucleus, the final chapter:
Just curious. How much memory does it take? I can't get my copy to do zip,
and I have a feeling this is why. Has anyone out there with a 768K machine
gotten it to work?

[etc. ...] Despite claims that it runs under 768K, it doesn't run on my 768K, ROM 01 system. I haven't any hardware wierder than a Datalink 2400, either. It's not a downloading problem, 'cause the same disk worked just file at my user's group meeting last night on a 1.25M box. (And it IS pretty neat!)

It loaded, got to the title screen? and then did clicking sounds and that's it. I have 512k and it didn't give me a not enough memory message. I have a Version 1 system (the second batch of roms that came out for the Gs). It might be really dependant on disk drives if thery aren't using the smartport software, but I kind of doubt it. I still haven't seen it. :-| C'est la vie. %%%%%%%%%%%%%%% Internet: dnelson@ibiza.cs.miami.edu %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% % Dru Nelson %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% % Miami, FL % os9, C, Progressive music (burrow owls to dial-a-cliche), chAos %%%%%%%%%%%%%%% and frying my mind & spirit? on certain questions about life %

Well, I tried booting up Nucleus and got the "SpeedyBoot" message and then
some clicking sounds from my drive and nothing. I haven't seen it either.
Seems that it doesn't like my UniDisk for some reason. Is it possible it only
works on an AppleDisk 3.5?
Not that it's a big deal...whoever asked for docs for Nucleous...what are you?
Crazy? Who would want docs or even expect them for a graphic demo???
I don't know what all the fuss is as I have some Amiga demos that are
fantastic and I just can't see the GS living up to those. Once I do finally
view it, I will let you know if it's nearly as good as some of my Amiga demos.
