Sinan Gurkan quotes a Usenet posting from Jim Drew: "The Blizzard support library has some sort of memory mapping (from what we can tell) problem. H&P does not test using A1200 systems at all. H&P does not even have an A1200 setup with a Blizzard (strange - since the Blizzard for the A1200 was the most sold version)." Unfortunately, I could not find the posting via the URL provided. Here's another thread though with related information. "The Blizzard support library has some sort of memory mapping (from what we can tell) problem. H&P does not test using A1200 systems at all. H&P does not even have an A1200 setup with a Blizzard (strange - since the Blizzard for the A1200 was the most sold version).

iFUSION works flawlessly on any other PPC card setup. We don't have the source code to the Blizzard hardware library (or any part of the WarpOS), so we can not figure out exactly what the problem is. We would like to move on and finish the PPC version of PCx. We have been at a stand still for nearly a month.

The question now is: do we go ahead and release the product to Blittersoft for shipping, or do we wait for a fix for this problem? We do not want to have to ship out secondary CD-ROMs because a problem with the WarpOS (not our fault), so we are stuck - and we would like your opinion (publically here, please don't email us directly).

Thanks for your continued support, and I appologize for the delay... "
