HELP! I've got Drip from ff347. It's a very nice game, but ... Using an A2000B the sprites of the bubbles and ballons aren't displayed correctly. The Drip and the monster-drips are ok. With an A500 (3MB) there aren't any problems like this. It's ok there. I tried 'nofastmem', but no effect. Give me some hints, please.

Run Preferences and move the screen all the way to the *right*. Then click on
the Save or the Use button to exit. Now run Drip; that should work.

It gets ugly from there. dfrancis@tronsbox.xei.com ...uunet!tronsbox!dfrancis GEnie: D.HEFFERNAN1 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ "I don't understand why you make such a big deal out of everything...haven't you learned; if it's not happenning to me it's not important?" -Murphy Brown
