Error Strings

Most of the error strings in the application are carried over from Spaceway 2000, which john calhoun co-wrote for Casady & Greene:

QuickDraw Version is Too Old

Couldn't Open a Needed File
A file failed to load. Perhaps you have moved or renamed either the sounds, graphics, or levels files. Try re-installing Spaceway 2000™.

The last two, however, are from an unidentified miniature golf game which there's no other record of john or C&G working on.

Couldn't Load Course Data
When trying to load in the course data ... boom! Either the course is damaged or memory is tight.

Need A Course to Run
If there is no miniature golf course, then there is nothing to play.
