[comp.sys.amiga] Overlays and Linking with Lattice 5.04

Hello, Amiga users

A friend and I wrote the game Stellar Conflict for the Amiga (soon to be out
on the IBM yech. and Atari ST).  We have just tuned up the graphics, and now
the program is to big to run under 512k.  We are using Lattice 5.04, no 
Optimizer.  Our program has about 15 different source files.  We want to use
overlays but we don't know the command line syntax. Here is a example of our
programs modules.

             main
               |
             file1
               |
             file3
             /   \
        file4     file6
          |         |
        file5     file7
                    |
                  file8

We are also designing a new program.  This new game is over 300k in size.  We 
seem to be haveing a link problem (using BLINK) because our program will not
run anymore. If it does run it is only from RAD: it won't run from RAM: or my 
hard disk.  We turned off some code to reduce the program size to around 200k
and the problems are gone.  Is there anybody who has had these problems, and 
what can be done to solve this linking problem .

Thanks Randy Young
