- My, what a blessedly active list I've found in you-all!
- I hope you Apple II people are willing to speak to a MAC LC IIe-emulator
- owner, because that's what my question is about.
-
- Does anyone know a current phone number or address for POLARWARE
- company (they're not in Batavia, IL anymore)? Or, does anyone
- have an answer to my actual problem: of 5 Polarware games
- (three just yesterday taken out of shrink wrap) only 1 sorta works
- on the MAC LC IIe emulation card.
-
- "CRIMSON CROWN" seems to work fine with the exception of a
- "Sorry, I don't understand" line after each descriptive text.
- Looks like it's reading an extra input character that I'm not typing.
- "TALISMAN" and "SPY ADVENTURE IN NORTH AMERICA",
- "SPY ADVENTURE IN SOUTH AMERICA", and "SPY ADVENTURE IN EUROPE"
- all do the following: the disk begins to boot, I am asked
- "Standard/Double hi-res graphics?", and I get three lines saying
- something like "Hold on, agent H2O, the fate of the world .... etc"
- and then nothing else. If I answered D it stops right there.
- If I answered S it does a brief disk read first, then stops.
- I wonder if it is part of copy protection, that doesn't recognize
- the MAC LC IIe emulator?? Anybody know how to fix it??
