Hi, thanks again for a wonderful port!| spent hours with Maelstrom on my dad's mac as a kid. Unfortunately, the ipk only works until the game starts, the ship appears with the red circle shield, and then nothing happens. When launched from the console, it shows something like "Getting info for frame displayed ages ago"
I am testing on Sl-C1000, sharp rom.
The problem happens both with normal lbSDL and with libSDL-bvdd.

I'm looking forward to an update!

Best regards

Wait, I don't get it.  You posted a non-working ipk and didn't tell us?  What was the point?  Thanks.

As far as I remember Tovarish is compiling games for the Sharp rom without using it, and it is therefore normal that he relies on people testing it.
I find that it is a rather kind effort to port games for other roms you don't use

yeah it is true, now i am trying pdaxrom these days and then i will try then new OZ. It does look like i will move back to the sharp rom since pdaxrom doesnt quite cut it for me.
