Hi, I have a A4000 030 from about 1992-3. It has 2meg chip and 16 meg fast
In general Amos !.34 and Amos Pro 2.00 and Pro Compiler work fine, but
there are a few quirks.
- Screens of width less than 200 are distorted horribly
- The memory indicator in the Ed and Direct mode say I have no free fast mem
- Very few extensions work perfectly (I`m not sure if this is their fault
or Amos`)
- These include INTos, Craft, Turbo +, COOLStars
None of these problems happen on my A500 ,but it has only 1 meg , no hard
drive and is slow , so guess which one i use for AMOS!

I noticed that someone mentioned the AMWolf engine, I agree its good
I think he used Amos but the calculations are done in Asembler
I have a guide file about 3d engines if you dont have it, its on the
AMInet somewhere but I cant remember where, I`ll send it to you if you want
Best of luck with the game!

And the Amigan too!
