[comp.sys.mac.games] Armor Alley Problems?

Concerning Armor Alley problems:

If you have a problem you should contact Three-Sixty's technical support
number.  I personally call everyone that they can not help.

As far as I know the game works on MacPluses up; System 6.0.5 and up.  If 
it doesn't work for you, I want to find out why.  Most likely, there's
something non-standard about your system.

On a MacPlus and MacSE (not MacSE/30) Armor Alley must use page flipping to run
decently.  This means its incompatible with drivers and INITs that utilize the
second graphics page.  The solution is to use a program that lets you manage
your INITs and complain to the manfactures of hi-mem drivers, to have them
place their driver in the system heap.

AppleTalk should also be fine.

So, instead of flaming about problems, let's try to solve them.  Posting is
less likely to get you a helpful response than contacting 360 or the authors.

At most, I suspect there may be a problem with saved games.  If this proves to
be the case - there will be a patch soon.
