Well, grrrrrrrrronk - groooooonk, I finally broke down and grrrrrrrrronk,
bought Aa - grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrronk - argh.
A very nice g - gr - gro - gronk - ame. Great graphics, and awesome
gronk, grrrronk anima - gronk -tion.
However, every time I change grrrrrrrrrrrrrrronk levels, I have to sit and
listen to my grrronk vintage A1000 disk drive gronk and gronk and gronk.
(I just know it's gonna blow up someday!).
So - I copied the whole thing into VD0: - (I've got 2.5 megs ram:).
Then I started it up - title screen comes up, Yeah! - oops, program
exits. Damn.
Anybody know how to get this thing to run out of ram:?
Gee, I've been resisting any commenting on pirating/copy-protection
and all that other drivel, but I've got to say this:
1) I don't care if a game is copy protected.
2) I don't even care if it doesn't multitask. (I only play games anyway ;-)
BUT -
I've got 2.5M of ram:, at LEAST let me run it from memory. I don't care if
I have to insert the original disk, just as long as I can run the whole
thing without waiting for disk accesses.
