Dean-
If the image works fine on an emulator, try using a different 5 1/4
disk.  These things are getting old and quite often get bad sectors.  I
just got one yesterday doing the same crash as yours.

As for a game; patience, young one :-)  I just got the sprites working
so its time for game content and creation tools.

Dave,

I guess it was the disk. I tried copying the raydemo.dsk to two other
real disks. The first one failed just like before. The second one
booted all the way into the demo. Young one, huh? I bought my first
Apple II+ back in 1981 and I graduated high school the year before
Apple Computer got started. ;-)

Thanks for the advice.
Dean


Dean - glad to hear it.

Sorry for the young one remark. I've got a birthday coming up and am feeling particularly old and decrepit. Officially forty-something. However, I got a boost to my psyche when I showed my current work-in-progress to my fiancee's teenage boys and they said it was 'cool'. After which they went back to playing Oblivion on the XBOX 360. Oh well.

Dave...
