Re: Apple IIgs Gaming Questions

Sounds complicated.  So there really is no easy way to play all my IIe
games on a IIgs without some serious tweaking or using cracked images?
I might as well go back to using my IIe then, as 99% of the games I
still play are for the IIe.

Interestingly, I've noticed an odd glitch with some of my pirated
disks.  The menu loader on many of them doesn't show up for some
reason.  I can hear the background sound so I know its running, and if
I push the appropriate button the games will load, but the actual menu
is invisible (looks like a blank screen).  Very odd behavior.

I suppose I could get a whole bunch of cracked disk images and put them
onto my HD, but it would be annoying to have to load system 6 each time
I wanted to play a game (ROM 03 is faster, but it still takes a bit to
load).  However if I did this, would 99% of the games play properly or
would I still have issues?

>>Why they don't work has been somewhat covered earlier in the thread.
These disks are Copy-Protected modified DOS 3.3 Boot/Loader disks.
Publishers did this on the game disks to "prevent" copying.

I assumed using the old unidisk controller card would fix this problem.
