Are there falcons versions of Ishar 1 & 2 that use 256 colors? Do the original ST versions manage more than 16 colors? I thought I remembered playing a bit of Ishar 1 on my ST/STE's a few years ago, and the graphics were good, very good, but they still seemed to be using 16 colors at a time. I've been playing all three Ishar games for a short while on the Falcon, and while Ishar 3 definitely looks like 256 colors, 1 and 2 seem to have much better color depth to me as well, though 2 is still better looking than 1. Do they use more colors on the Falcon? Am I playing an enhanced Falcon versions? They are from a Falcon software site.
And it shall come to pass, in the days when the Dark Hunt rides,
when the right hand falters and the left hand strays,
that mankind shall come to the Crossroads of Twilight and all that is,
all that was, and all that will be shall balance on the point of a sword,
while the winds of the Shadow grow.-From 'The Prophecies of the Dragon'
