- Randell Jesup was going to release a Run_ECS program but I don't know if he
- has yet. Anyway try my Degrader(1.30) program in a script before the game:-
-
- Degrader NOVIEW NOEDITOP

- But it will probably only help programs that hit the hardware. If the
- program is using the OS to OpenScreen and then stuffing up because of the
- alignment, extra bandwidth etc of bitplanes you are stuck for now. I might
- add something to Degrader in the future.
