Are they out of buisness? I've been trying to contact them, and have gotten no answer on several occasions. If they are, then I need help... I've got a game made by them called Universe II. Really good game. I haven't played it in a while, so I dug it up a few days ago. I used to play it on a 2 drive //e, and it worked great, but I found that it won't work on my GS because I only have 1 5.25" drive. At one point in time, they were offering an upgrade from 3 5.25" disks to 1 3.5" disk. It was free plus shipping, so I figured I'd get it. Well, they're gone, so it doesn't look like I can. I decidede to try and convert the thing on my own. I've copied all the files onto a 3.5" disk, and gone in with a block editor and changed all the file accesses so that it looks for that disk for all the files instead of going to the other disks. I have, however, run into a problem. It's got a routine to print up a little message saying insert disk (blah) into drive 2. After which, it searches drive 2. I don't have a drive 2, so it just prints the message again. I need to find the routine and remove it, but I can't find it. If anyone out there has the 3.5" version, please leave me mail. Or, if anyone knows anything about the company, please leave me mail. Thanks... -Greg T. BTW: Yes, I have the original. I payed for it, it's ligit...
