A little side note to anyone interested....the release of omega does not work quite right in 80386 xenix. the problem occurs when entering the town level - core dump. specifically, it happens at line 638 (or so says the debugger) in the file oscr.c. Its a segmentation violation, which means in the Intel world that the program is trying to access a memory location which it does not own...if I remember correctly, the line when something like: if (Level->site[x][y].things->next != NULL) don't quote me on the line, I'm typing from memory here. I would guess that either this pointer isn't initialized somewhere, or perhaps the current state of the xenix compiler defines NULL as some hellish thing (again.) - which gives me an idea. -- D.
