I'm not sure about this, but I doubt the game was designed to not work on an
emulator. More likely it's an issue with the emulator not properly emulating
something the code is trying to do. Jeff's emulator is known to not run some ML
code, such as the 64 color routine on Robert Gault's website. I had to make an
emulator detector in Color FOG for that reason, just to keep it from locking up
the emulator.

Try running the game in MESS and see if it works. 

cheers,
Bob
