HELP! I read a short note here a while ago about someone posting a verison of the old arcade classic "Omega Race". Could somebody please send me a copy or tell me how I can get one myself? Please note that I do not have FTP access. Thanks for any help. Mike -- /// /// "Only Amiga Makes It Possible!" mcc@moscom \\\ /// \XXX/ "On the other hand, you have different fingers..."

Okay gang, I have managed to get a copy of the Omega Race clone AmegaRace, but I can't figure out how to make it work. Every time I load the game I see the nice intro screen, then the high score screen, and then a scrambled play screen. As soon as I try to take any action, (fire, turn, etc.) my machine crashes! Is there a patch of some kind or other magic that can be used to make it work? For reference, I have an A1000 with 2meg internal RAM, the Spirit HDA-506 hard drive system, and a 68010 CPU. I tried DeciGel, to no avail... Any help is appreciated. Mike -- /// /// "Only Amiga Makes It Possible!" mcc@moscom.UUCP \\\ /// \XXX/ "On the other hand, you have different fingers..." Steven Wright
