[comp.sys.amiga.games] ELVIRA and IMMORTAL on A3000 ?

abuamara@eemips.tamu.edu (Marwan Abu-Amara) (02/17/91)

I have an A3000 with one disk drive.  Does anyone know
whether ELVIRA and IMMORTAL run on such a system?
Thank you for your help.

They both run on my A3000 if I boot 1.3 amigados.
Neither runs correctly under 2.0 (although they're close).
ELVIRA will install on my hard drive.

And what kind of copy protection does it have?  All the Elvira box says
is "Off disk copy protection".

Thanks

The recipies for making spells are overprinted with red junk.  You have to
have the documentation and a piece of red cellophane to make spells.  It
is rather a pain because the book is ~ 15 pages long.  You may want to make
up a list of the spell ingredients and keep it handy rather than referring
to the documentation.

All things considered, I'd rather have had a code wheel.

I run Elvira on my A2000 with harddisk, but it won't work if I'm running 
OS 2.0 (the screen gets messed up).  It works fine from harddisk under 1.3,
though.

I also run Elvira on my A3000 with hard drive, and it will only run under system 1.3.3  under 2.0 the sound is fine, but the screen is all messed up!

I removed my overscan and then it worked fine for me.
