I wasn't able to get the version off Aminet working a few months ago, either. Also downloaded some version off a WHDLoad site, couldn't get that one working either.

I remember having it back in the day and loved the heck out of it, but couldn't get either version running on either my 500 or 2000.  Need to revisit this, am sure it's some obvious issue, just haven't had time. :(

Unless the game is using some 64 color EHB mode (that wasn't present in the original A1000 OCS chipset) there's no way that would make a difference. Myself and many others also had the same problem, and I most definitely have the ECS chipset. It's a dependency issue, or a missing library issue, or the game is looking for PowerPacker library version 2.0 and you have 2.1 installed, or some dumb thing like that. (just made up those numbers, btw, but you get the idea).

Run the sucker with SnoopDOS and see what it reports. I'd do it but I'm back to working 15 hours a day again, no time for Amiga fun. :(

Not quite sure we are on the same page here, I had to move the actual drawers into the sys/libs drawer. its not looking for them in the games directory.

Sounds like it's looking for them in Libs:Libs/#?.  Stupid programming bug.  LOL.  ;)
