To: Ultrasound Daily Digest <ultrasound@dsd.es.com>

There are a few reasons why you haven't seen any 3D demos from us yet:

1) The demo we take with us to shows fits on a tape and takes about 40Mb
2) The smaller demo we have still has problems.  
3) Most of our time is being taken up trying to get the new disk set done
   and out there.  After we finish it then we can move on to the 3D developers
   kit and hopefully fix up the smaller demo.

| X-Wing just came out in my area, and since I have read that it is 
| supposed to be better than Wing Commander II, I bought it.  To my 
| surprise, the game runs INCREADIBLY slow on my 386/33 w/387 co processor 
| running with sbos on my GUS.  In fact it is UNPLAYABE.  The speach does 
| not work either.
| I have read though, that it is supposed to be increadibly smooth, even on 
| a 386/33.  I think this is due to SBOS.  Is there any way to fix this?
| I have (like I mentioned) a 386/33 w/386 co, 4 megs or ram, running with 
| QEMM 6.02, DOS 5.0, and SBOS 1.22 loaded.
| 
| I would really like help on getting it to work.  I do not want to play a 
| game without sound when it cost me 60 bucks.

The game runs nicely on my 386/40. I have the same set up as you. The only
problem I have seen with slowdowns is when you are in battle and have digital
sound on. Then it slows Wayyyy down.
