Title: Big breakthrough regarding HDDriver found!!!
Post by ggn on 29.03.07 at 17:44:54

Ok, to cut a long story short, this is the way to ensure HDDRIVER is using the minumum possible memory!

a) Load hddrutil.prg
b) Go to Settings->General
c) Put 999 in all the cache settings
d) Reboot :)

We tested it in 2 falcons already and while booting HDDRIVER reports that it's using the minimum memory setting. We're sure this will help some users that have problems with our fixes!

I can't really say what this will fix tbh... All the stuff we release work on our falcons and mstes.

I've heard some weird stories from other people though. Stuff we playtest to death and confirm working on 5 different falcons (6 with yours ;) ) don't work on them. So maybe this will help matters.

Lastly, maybe some games on our WIP folders could start working now, especially these that rely on OS calls to function (provided they don't load low enough)
