- COMMANDO RAID 1 README FILE!!!
-
- This short file is just here to warn you about things that might
- keep Commando Raid from running properly on your system. I know *I*
- always hate it when some awful program I just downloaded won't run,
- so here are some KNOWN things that will cause the program to crash:
-
- - Running it in PAL mode. You can't even PLAY in PAL mode.
- I really apologize for this, but for some strange reason,
- the status bar in the game entirely disappears in PAL. Also
- some other horrible things happen. Switch to NTSC and the
- game should run fine. Besides, the game's faster in NTSC :-)
- - Not having a certain file. If the files are in some other directory
- just remember that all the files that were in your archive
- of this game HAVE to be in the same directory as CR when you
- run it. If you're using a directory program, try CD'ing to the
- CommandoRaid directory before running it.
- - Having other programs running at the same time. CR is not
- a multitasking game. In fact it's very system unfriendly (well,
- fairly system unfriendly).
- - Not having enough memory! I know for a fact that this will cause
- the game ending to crash! If you don't have a meg of memory
- yet, get with the times. I'm pretty sure the game runs fine
- on a meg, but it's really a memory hog. This program was tested
- on an A1200 with 2 megs, and an A500 with 1 meg, and it ran fine.
-
- 90% of gurus seem to be caused by lack of memory. But don't get the
- idea that the game will never work! It should work just fine.
-

- OTHER BUGS?!
-
- I don't know of any! I've been testing the program for quite a while,
- and I *think* I've worked them all out ... but you never know. If you
- come across a particularly glaring one, let me know (read the CR.DOC file
- for more info). By the way, the program SHOULD avoid most gurus by just
- quitting back to workbench, but don't count on it.
