Does anyone know if Bouncing Bluster is supposed to have problems with a ROM 03 //gs? I just got it off the ftps and unpacked it (with no problem, according to GSHK and BinSCII), but the dang thing just sends me back to the finder when I try to run it. Is this normal? It sounds like a problem someone else was having a while ago with having wierd INITs, but I booted off the System Disk 5.0.2 and the same thing keeps a-happening... Help? System: ROM 03 GS, 3.125 MB RAM, Sider D20, Zip GSX (which hasn't had any other compatibility probs yet and runs great!) ----------------------------------------------------------------------- TWB5024@tamu.venus.edu Warlock BOTTING@tamu.comp.edu Tye Botting -----------------------------------------------------------------------

Bouncing Bluster consists of three disks. The third disk is the editor.
However, the first two are critical as Bouncing Bluster uses GS/OS4.0 and will
NOT run under 5.0x. You MUST Boot the BB disk to get it to run, you can NOT run
it or launch it from your hard drive if you have 5.0x on your hard drive.

Hmmm... Well if it has all those problems, it better be one FANTASTIC program. I don't think we should really have to put up with that kind of crap. If developers would follow the RULES just once in a while, these types of problems wouldn't happen (unless, of course, it's a memory problem). On the other hand, Apple doesn't follow their own rules (gee -- MORE hipocracy), so I'm not surprised that nobody else does either. - Andrew.
