I recently bought a used copy of Infocom's "A Mind Forever Voyaging"
and am running 6.0.7 on my IIsi 2/40.  Although it does NOT have some of
the troubles that I've had with older Infocom games, I do get some
crashes that necessitate system restarts.  Specifically, this happens
when I try to enter "simulation mode" before it's been activating.
The documentation makes it sound like you get a simple warning if you
try to do this, not that your machine will crash!  I am concerned that
there may be other, more insidious, problems waiting for me once I
get into the game.

My version is copyright 1985 and is release 77, serial # 850814.
Does anyone know if there is a more recent version?  If so, is
there anyone who might be kind enough to supply me with a copy?
Normally, of course, I'd go to Infocom to get an upgrade, but
they're out of business by now.

Thanks for any help anyone can provide.

PS - I've been able to "repair" other old Infocom games with ResEdit,
but this was only because they all shared a similar resource structure
and I could patch in resources from newer, working games.  AMFV has
a different resource structure, so this particular method doesn't
work.  Does anyone have any ideas how I might be able to fix my
AMFV with ResEdit?
