New features in this version compared to the previous one(s) are: * Proper StrongARM support, so it doesn't need the cache turned off while loading. The previous version had been patched to turn the cache off, but this new version now loads a lot quicker * A bug fix in the graphics code to stop it from drawing off-screen and crashing the game. I'd encountered this bug many times myself, and no-one else seemed to know anything about it, so finally decided to do something about it And all the stuff included with the previous version(s): * A bundled utility to slow down the framerate on fast machines * A keystrip file in draw, complete with the age-old 'Launch'/'In flight' mis-labelling * Ship identification screenshots * Robert Holdstock's 'Dark Wheel' novella * The game manual * A couple of utilities to allow you to play using the Falcon analogue joystick * 'Gibson' and 'Jameson' savegames |

Like the ship ID shots - nice The original package had ID cards IIRC but the freeware release didn't. What are the unnamed ones? |
