However all the title pages and intro screens with "tiles" the graphics are completely messed up. This does not affect game play at all. 3. Game play is fine on 3000 but the graphics glitch throughout the game. It is still playable, but annoying. 4. On 3000 game won't even load from floppy. From HD under 2.0 the game hangs when you try to "Takeoff" from Armament screen. Under 1.3 once you are in the cockpit the keyboard is hung/frozen. 5. Runs fine on 3000 from floppy only if you boot under 1.3. Won't run with 2.0 6. If run from HD on 3000: under 2.0 the game seems to play fine but if you hit to get menus the game crashes. Under 1.3 once in the cockpit the keyboard is hung/frozen. 7. Game runs fine on 3000 if you are on speed. In other words, the game runs, but it is VERY VERY fast and nearly impossible to play at this speed. 8. Freezes on title screen under 2.0. Under 1.3, if it loads (sometimes it does, sometimes not) it plays fine. 9. Doesn't run on 3000. But just a note that if you are running it on another machine from hard disk you must use the original floppy as a key disk. 10. Plays fine under 2.0 and 1.3 but at accelerated speed on 3000. This doesn't hinder play for this game. 11. Game runs on 3000 but with massive graphic glitches on the screen at all times. Not really playable, but it runs. 12. Seems to run fine on 3000. It seems to have minor glitches undere 2.0 like the sound sometimes disappears. 13. Game seems to load fine on 3000 but as soon as you attempt to move the game hangs and crashes. The patches are to change DF0: to something else, like F18: & GRD:. PD Games HD 2500/20 2500/30 3000 --------- --- --------- -------- ----- Tetrix Yes YES ? ? Omega Yes ? ? ? Battletech Yes ? ? ?
