- After extensive testing on Backbone I've come to a conclusion on why
- it won't work on some poeples computers.
-
- Basically, its just too big! The code is fairly big and it reserves
- a LOT of memory.
-
- Things that can help get it run include:
- -cutting chunks of code out to make it smaller.
- -reducing the amount of memory reserved.
- -not having error message when compiling it.
-
- Now apart from the last one (which doesn't help much anyway) I can't
- really do the other two without wrecking my program.
-
- Does anyone have any idea what causes AMOS to go crazy with big progs.
- etc.
- Oh, and I HAVE tried the Long Forward Jump option in the compiler!
-
- Anyone know how to solve it? Any hope of someone patching something?
-
- Arrgh! I'm dieing!
