Thanks folks, I plan to build the installer on Monday giving me the weekend to clear as many problems as possible. I found a major bug today which may account for some of my crashes so I'm hopeful that the game will run reasonably well on your hardware though it's not yet stable. The html manual is complete enough to give you for testing purposes but needs lots of tidying up before release.

Update: Can you see me doing cartwheels. The big bug I found earlier (bad data coming in from a data file) once fixed led me to the root of an even bigger bug which caused my game to crash just after ejecting unwanted cargo. Another one down. Perhaps it will be stable sooner than expected

Note to Thierry: Given your involvement in bringing the game to fruition through your developemnt of PocketFrog I think you deserve a personalised gold-plated copy. I will get a copy to you once the initial hardware testing is out of the way so I know it will just work when you install it.

After a lot of 'scratching my head' the installer is now a happy bunny & will place the game properly with the game executing correctly from the install folder so I can now do the couple of local device tests I want to do & then get in touch with you kind folks who have volunteered to do some initial testing.

The HTML manual is getting a few last graphics to spruce it up so it's acceptable to testers.

I'm running our of big problems & the one wee problem of hanging after power on with owner information active is easy to avoid so I have lined up a day's leave on Tuesday to get the game out to beta testers.

I'm happy to have feedback on this forum or on the Space Treker Forum :- or via email if all else fails.
(there are two types of beta tester, PocketMatrix people & existing Space Treker players)

I installed the beta on my SD Card H1910. The installation went fine but I'm getting this error:

Cannot find 'treker (or one of its components). Make sure the path and filename are correct and all the required libraries are available.

I tried to copy the gx.dll but i still get the same error mesg. Regards.
