No, of course I've not changed such things like features or its appearance.
But changing between text and graphic mode in Sargon3 works only when you are in '40 COL Color' mode, so you first have to switch to this mode before <ESC> toggles between text and graphics.
To change the mode use the key <?> (this shows the settings menu), now press <L> to switch to '40 COL Color' mode, and after exiting with <ESC> you can switch between text and graphic screen as usual with the <ESC> key.

Hi Franz,

Thanks for clarifying. Maybe I should looked for the manual. I have to say it didn't feel as buggy in this game, maybe it is a result of your better book?

Thanks Franz for this smart version.

I could download it successfully without registering; for those getting issues try this link where I just re-uploaded it: http://tibono.free.fr/temp/Sargon3.zip
