I know this is a stupid way to advertise, but try to download omega150.lzh from abcfd20.larc.nasa.gov incoming/amiga instead. It should be NTSC (or what you call it over there) with Hires-Ultima-kindoff-graphics, it is still only a workcopy yet, since I am waiting for some more graphics. The game is sub- stantiel larger, so you might have trouble on a 1meg maschine. The installation should be simple, just change the paths in the omega.cnf file, plus read the 'Readme' file. For a historical view of the releases I've made check the file 'Versions'. (Use lharc -x -r e) With regards Klavs Pedersen aggaton@freja.diku.dk
