THis is soooooo disappointing.
Everything works superb until I reach the replay/event info screen.
Sound goes nuts and everything runs soooo slow.

Have anyone got ideas on this????
Is it my 16mb.... I will buy much more before GPL full release!!

I have 32mb of mem but had exactly the same probs running win98 beta3. Win95
is ok though.

It does say in the readme file that the sys requirements include 32 Megs of
ram, so theres your problem..... GET MORE RAM!!!!
p.s. I'd definitely recommend  this game even after only 1 day of this
pre-alpha release demo - Thats how good it is :-)

If an installation routine asks you "Do you want to view the readme
file now?", answer with "yes". ;) I know this is hard to do; I, too,
want to run the sim, not read any texts, but it would have provided
you with an answer: the minimum hardware requirements for the GPL demo
are a 166 Mhz processor and *32 MB* of RAM.
Do yourself a favour and buy a couple of 16MB simms right now, just
like I did today. They're really cheap and believe me, it's worth it!
