[Coco] FOD on CoCo3FPGA

[Stephen Pereira]

Thanks very much for your thoughts, Bill.  Much appreciated.  I have been using my CoCo 3 with my SDC, and I didn’t think about the change over to Drivewire.

I am still curious about the music, though.  In the main sequence of the FOD music, the fourth (and eighth) note does not seem to be as low as they are on the real physical CoCo.  That was a surprise to me.  

Anyone else out there playing this game on both machines?

On the CoCo 3, the graphics and music associated with the inns come up instantly, and on the CoCo2FPGA there is a 1-2 second lag, just enough so that you get nervous that something’s gone wrong.Has anyone else tried this?  Can anyone else offer their experience between a CoCo 3 and a CoCo3FPGA?Thanks.smp- - -Stephen PereiraBedford, NH  03110KB1SXE-- Coco mailing listCoco at maltedmedia.comhttps://pairlist5.pair.net/mailman/listinfo/coco
