I recently posted regarding a problem with Molec3D on Fish disk 482. Thanks to all who responded. It is beginning to appear that the program works OK on A500s and A1000s, but breaks on A2000s, both stock and accelerated (has anyone tried it on an A3000?). Of course I only have low-number statistics, so if anyone has gotten it to run on an A2000, let me know. I assume (but may be wrong) that the coding was not done by the Amiga OS rules and this is why it runs on some machines but not others. I was wondering how this could be. What difference is there between the A500 (and A1000) and the A2000 that could cause this difference? Regards, Richard gerber@rigel.astro.uiuc.edu

Of course I only have low-number It seems to work fine on my (old) A2000, so that can't be the problem. Which A2000s have you tried it on, and what were they equipped with? The most possible cause may be CHIP RAM: does it break on 2000s with one or 1/2 a meg of chip ram? By the way, all of the icons are 2.0 style -- it looks like it was written on an A3000, or in any case some machine running 2.0. My system: B2000, 4.2 (cherry keyboard),KS 34.5, WB34.20, GVP harddrive and 3 megs of ram (1.6 free upon running) and the old Agnus (512k chip). Hope this helps ... Brian

Molec3D works like a charm on my 3000/25 running 2.02 AmigaDOS.
Everything worked great, nice program, wish I'd had it
for my Chem and Physics classes in school...
