Not that it's any help but thats the same situation here for me, I'm
guessing but perhaps the !Run file needs amending to stop it looking
at the CD ?

I also had a problem with it not finding the SharedSound module in
!System.modules but that maybe exclusive to my machine, but the
required module was in another directory called SSound , is this
correct?

I have to say this release came as a total suprise and the screenshots
like superb, i've always hoped that one day a new improved graphics
version of Star Fighter 3000 would happen and now it is.

Many thanks and well done to all those involved, this release is very
much appreciated by all us RISC OS gamers.

cheers
Matthew
