Good point @czietz, I didn't think of that.
It's quite possible some of these interfaces won't emulate rarely used features correctly.

Do you know what version of the Eiffel?
According to this page, it should emulate IKBD_SET_MOUSE_SCALE since version 1.04
https://didierm.pagesperso-orange.fr/eiffel-e.htm


But in any case, given the presence of various IKBD emulation interfaces, it still feels safer to avoid using that feature and stick to just the basic ones.
I can accomplish the same thing in software anyway.

The good news is that it works fine on the TT now. It's very marginally slower, but with a few random benchmarks being a tad faster.
Intro retro computers since before they were retro...
ZX81->Spectrum->Memotech MTX->Sinclair QL->520STM->BBC Micro->TT030->PCs & Sun Workstations.
Added code to the MiNT kernel (still there the last time I checked) + put together MiNTOS.
Collection now with added Macs, Amigas, Suns and Acorns.

@frank.lukas, I'm hoping this one should work with the Eiffel interface:

I've been playing flight simulators on it & failing to find the 68k version of Civilisation II. That's my update! :lol:

If you're looking for Civ II for 68k, Macintosh Garden has it posted there. That's where I got it for my Quadra 650 (68040 CPU).

Thanks. I hadn't found that site!

I gave the download a go on Baslisk on my Linux box, but Civ always crashes with a seg fault. Will try it on Falcon when I get a chance.

Still haven't unpacked from Cyberlegends!
