Problem: It's not STE compatible!! (At least, none of the STE owners over here have made it work). Use Ultra-Pack if you are going to do something like that, as it compresses the data a LOT better than Magic-Shadow! Or try & locate the macig shadow (version 1.31 or something), that has a better compression in it (put in by a third party....). Chaos would be the best one, if it worked on the STE! ============================================================================= | O O Computers: Not just machines, they're a way of | ||| | | o life.
