No I would never write software which assumes - it does the standard
test which is to write to $2 and read from the Aurora display address
To avoid any assumptions, you could test to see whether you are running on
Q-emuLator version 2.4 or later (there is a trap for that).
Of course,
2) 2MB crashes for some reason - it needs 3MB
If QWord works with 2MB when not running on Q-emuLator, perhaps you could
send me the version you are using for me to investigate the crash.
3) How do we access the new display modes? Same pokes as on Aurora?
Yes.

I have the same question as Rich. I've got 2.4 installed. I select Q60

I'm using SMSQ/E for the Gold Card (I think I am only off a version or two
That wouldn't work: SMSQ/E for the Gold Card doesn't have Q60 video drivers.
Select Aurora instead of Q60, and make sure you use the version

A new version of Q-emuLator for Windows is available.
The main new feature is emulation of the Q60 video modes and some
of the
Aurora video modes.
RAM available to unregistered copies has also been increased to
384KB to
allow users to run unzip_exe to expand archives of QL software

Is it able to use these modes from QDOS, or does it need SMSQ/E for

Needs either SMSQ/E for the Super Gold Card (it now includes Aurora
colour
drivers) or QL software that directly access the video
Great, this means that QWord should be able to run on it - I will have to
try and sort this out.
Yes, the Q40/Q60 and Aurora versions should work on Q-emuLator.
You may have to modify them to use only the video and not other parts of the
Q60 HW/OS, though.
However, even with level 2 drivers

Ah - the Q60 version relies on SMSQ/e - whereas the Aurora version does
not.
If the Aurora version of QWord assumes the Aurora card is always present and
it uses the 512x480 256 colours mode, than it should work as is on
Q-emuLator. If it tests for presence of the Aurora card it may work on not
