The Amiga does not have VM in the OS, it is a 3rd party program. With
Gigamen I can't load more than 7 Megs of Images, even if lightwave show
54 megs free! (I'm doing a layerd efx [over 12 layers] with the images
larger that the screen.) I have not tryed the VMM program, would you
try it for me? Just load more images than you have _RAM_ (not VM) to hold.
