- Spectrum 2 - update
- ==========
-
- Spectrum 2 has been received, on the whole, very well. There is however,
- one major critism; the lack of RiscPC support. Sounds Riscy have decided to
- make a move towards compatibility by offering this, a fixed version of the
- "!Run" and "!RunImage" files, which will check to see which computer you are
- using, and if necessary, disable the CoconizerPlayer module (which caused
- "Spectrum 2" to crash on a RiscPC).
-
- To make the upgrade, simply copy the "!Run" and "!RunImage" files from
- this archive to inside the "!Spectrum2" directory on your Spectrum2 disc.
- Note: The music will still work for pre-RiscPC machines. See the
- "!Spectrum2.!Help" file for copyright details regarding these files. If you
- wish to hear the music on a RiscPC, either purchase a copy of "Game On!"
- from the ARM Club, which allows you to use the CoconizerPlayer module, or
- send me a disc and stamp, and I will send you a copy of the tunes in
- Soundtracker format for use with the "Q2Track" application.
-
- Work on Spectrum issue three, a hyper-mag, has already begun. If you wish to contribute then contact us at: sndriscy@digibank.demon.co.uk
