#18693 Chaos Program Message #18809
From: James Gleick Autodesk Software Forum · CA Lab/Chaos July 8, 1992 10:42 PM
Sadly, there's no Mac version. I'd like to see one, because it would be a natural–but at the moment, no luck.

#10227- where's Rudy? Message #10259

Thanks. If you're interested in things like economic modeling, I suppose I would refer you to the Santa Fe Institute (in Santa Fe). They have a lot of people doing interesting things, and if you called them I think they would be able to direct you to timely source material…
#6622 Chaos & DOS 5.0 Message #6630
From: James Gleick Autodesk Software Forum · CA Lab/Chaos December 12, 1991 8:06 AM
I see that Dave Byrnes has given you a correct prescription. (Isn't Dos 5.0 wonderful? "Packed File Corrupt"? "Loadfix"?)

Oh, no! Two people reading the same copy? How's my publisher going to make any money?
#6556 Chaos Message #6588
From: James Gleick Autodesk Software Forum · CA Lab/Chaos December 11, 1991 10:15 AM
Hey! Thanks for the compliment, but most of Chaos runs at 640×480, not 320×200. (There is a little bit of 320x200x256 colors where appropriate.) I do wish we supported even higher resolutions (and possibly help is on its way) but let's not make it sound worse than it is. Cheers,

Thanks.

You're suggestion–unloading other forms in the main form's Unload procedure–seems to work. I had tried explicitly Unloading each form in my exit procedure, before calling End, and for some reason that did not work. Thanks.
