BALLSHMD by Excellence In Art [web] & D-Bug [web]
This is the readme for the D-bug fixed version of: Square v2 by Hemoroids This version fixes the few issues that are present in the original release. Mainly, it is now possible to run the demo under TOS 2.xx. This includes STEs and MegaSTEs. Also it is possible to run the demo from a hard disk (read below for more information). If your machine has only 2Mb of RAM (the original demo's requirements) and you have TOS 2.xx then you have to put the file called "SQUARE" into a floppy disk, rename it to "SQUARE.PRG", put it in the AUTO folder and boot your machine from floppy. Do not boot any hard disk drivers, just bypass everything and do a pure floppy boot. With 4Mb of RAM the demo should run correctly under TOS 2.06 on STEs and MegaSTEs when run even from hard drive. Just run "DBUGSQR.TOS" and everything should work just fine. Running from the desktop and hard disk can be problematic, try to have as much as a clean system as possible. This means: no boot managers, AUTO folder programs or accessories loaded. One final note for MegaSTE users: make sure you run the demo with the CPU speed set to 8Mhz. If something still doesn't work, then don't hesitate to get in touch with us, stating your configuration and a description of what's happening. Thanks for reading and see you soon, GGN and Showaddywaddy 7th of April 2021
