The restart system option seems to be only available to ST users, as I don't have one either. As for using the hint oracle, my friend and I developed the perfect technique. Get two Amigas together. One runs the hint oracle, the other runs the game, and voila! Each time you need a hint, you "Save and Play", pause the game, stick the disk in the other computer and get the hint! Of course, if there's any other way that's easier, I'd love to hear about it!!! (someone wanna make a hack to get DMII to multitask? The hint oracle already does, even though you can't quit..) --- ________________________________________________________________________ [ ][ ] [ Eric Plante ][ Opinions expressed in this ] [ Fido: 1:163/109.63 (819)568-6850 ][ message do not necessarily ] [ UUCP: ...!fts1!atronx!sarah!egp ][ reflect those of its author.. ] [____________________________________][__________________________________]
