BeebEm/Elite problems

Post by djp »

Anyone here know how to get Elite running properly under BeebEm? After I launch from a space-station, hit the hyperspace button, the countdown commences and as soon as it reaches 0 and begins the jump, Elite crashes and displays the message File Not Found?

Any ideas? :?

Also according to other sites emulating the ModelB has probs running Elite but the Acorn1770 doesn't.

Dunno... I play it on the Electron. :)
