Additionally, ACE! allows you to print details of these save games. Initially, you can edit the save games from 'Bard's Tale', 'Doom' (1, 2 and Ultimate), 'Foobar vs the DEA', 'Heroes of Might & Magic', 'King's Bounty', 'Mantra', 'Marathon' (1, 2, Infinity, Excalibur and Evil), 'Might and Magic' (1, 2 and 3), 'Pathways into Darkness', 'Realmz', 'Ultima III', 'Unlimited Adventures', 'Wizardry Gold' and 'Yipe! III'. However, ACE! can be extended to edit other save games through the use of plug-in 'modules'. ACE! is freeware. ACE! will run on any Macintosh or MacOS compatible computer. It requires System 7.0 or higher, a minimum of 350k of disc space, and about 640k of free RAM. ACE! is distributed as a fat binary, meaning that it runs native on both 68k and PPC processors. Version 1.1.1 fixes a bug that prevented ACE! from running on PPC machines with MacOS 7.x, and adds a new version checking system which ensures that modules made in the future will only be used by ACE! if they are compatible. This file has been checked for viruses with Disinfectant version 3.7.1. Permission is given for this program to be included on the Info-Mac CD rom. -- Richard Drysdall, University of Waikato, New Zealand.

It also has tools for Master Mix calculation, as well as sequence manipulation and peptide visualization. BioAssistant is based on Chaotic Software's first PCR chemistry application, Probe Assistant, but takes it a huge step forward by introducing many new features, a redesigned interface, and a lots more. Feedback, as usual, is very welcome at Chaotic Software. In this case, though, applications of this nature must be accurate, and based very much on what YOU, the chemistry (or other life science discipline) lab user, would like to see in such a software package. Therefore, if you find any bugs, or if you have some suggestions for improvement, please let us know. We would love to make BioAssistant work for you in all the ways you expect.
