Has anyone noticed that this 'adventure' game does NOT like living in a folder? To prevent it from crashing, I had to place ALL the files at the root level. This program is really in need of some work. What a waste of 210K... Further to this, why not use StuffIt before binhexing, rather than using PackIt III (Roger Long doesn't invoke compression) ???

Not only must the program be at the top level of the disk, but the MacinTalk file has to be in the system folder on the same disk as the program for the program to find it. It does work when you set it up on its own disk with a system and all the room files at the top level of the disk, but it does make the program less user-friendly, especially when it crashes the system. ++Eric Fielding BITNET: eric@crnlthry Internet: fielding@geology.tn.cornell.edu
