Configuration of VMM V3.3 for Descent:Freespace =============================================== * Note that this ONLY works for the 68k Version of Freespace !!! * (Works with Mediator1200 in mmu and nommu mode - and of course also on Hardware without a Mediator) - First, do a fresh install of the VMM 3.3 package - Doubleclick the VMM icon Follow these steps and dont press [Save] until you are done - otherwise your system might lock. Tasks/Programs menu: - highlight [----- D E F A U L T -----] - set Code gadget to [Don't use VM] - set Data gadget to [Advanced options] - set Min.

VM allocation to 32000 click Save gadget so prefs will be stored. Now make a small script that starts up VMM: example: delete games:swap/page_file >nil: stack 200000 games:vmm/vmm quiet >nil: (I am not not sure if the stack command is needed but better safe than sorry :) Now run this script before starting Freespace and click save when the VMM GUI pops up.
