[comp.sys.amiga.games] MiG-29 Fulcrum help.

wfrancis@lunatix.uucp (Walter Francis) (03/09/91)

I have recently purchased the simulator MiG-29, and I love the thing
but the only problem is, I can not seem to find the menu the manual
mentions about changing the screen colours/resolution.  Currently, I
am using an NTSC Amiga with 5 megs of memory, and the game defaults to
a PAL Amiga, which nicely cuts off EVERYTHING past the Radar display
.  Is there a way to fix this, or have I, without knowing, gotten an
European version?  It says no such thing in the packaging or manual.
 
Any help would be appreciated..  If at all possible, could responces be
sent to FRANCIS@UKPR.uky.edu to save net bandwidth, unless you think your
information a good thing for everyone to know.
 
Thanks a lot!

The report I received from a Canadian distributer of MIG-29 was that the
program only works 'completely' in a 512k machine. I have not had an
opportunity to see if it really does work that way, since as soon as we
discovered the problem we sent all ours back. When they fix this program to
run properly then our store will again carry it,

To everyone else on the net:

DO NOT BUY THIS GAME - Encourage your local dealer to return their copies
until such time as the game is in an operable state. I cannot see how ANY
publisher can miss something as prominent as an inability to change to NTSC.
Anything from that publisher will be going through a very good screening
before we will put anything else on our shelves from them.
