-
- This file contains last minute information and answers to common questions.
-
- * SETUP: Before you start the game, run the installation program SETUPAQ
- To make a selection, use the Up or Down keys to move and press <Enter>.
- The SETUPAQ will create a configuration file, AQ.CFG, containing your
- preferences. From then on, simply type AQ <Enter> to start the game.
-
- * DIGITIZED SOUND support (AT 286 or better is required): You can hear the
- voices of the animals clearly, either through one of the supported sound
- cards and compatibles or through your PC speaker.
-
- * MUSIC support (AT 286 or better is required): Both PC speaker and sound
- card FM music is supported.
-
- NOTE 1: Animal Quest is using the sound card manufacturer's default
- settings:
- Sound Blaster Base Address: 220 , IRQ: 7
- COVOX Base Address: 222
- Disney Source Base Address: 400
- If your sound card is set to different settings you MUST run program
- RECONFIG.EXE to reconfigure the sound drivers, otherwise the program will
- either make no sounds or will hang up.
-
- NOTE 2: If you use the Digitized Sound Effects or Sound card Music option,
- you should NOT run AQ under the Microsoft WINDOWS environment.
- ( Sound drivers are TSR and therefore cannot be loaded under Windows )
-
- * GRAPHICS: To use ANIMAL QUEST, an EGA or VGA adapter is required.
- Optional Super VGA graphics support is provided for most of the popular
- chipsets and the VESA standard. To use Super VGA graphics, your card
- must have at least 512K video memory on board and your monitor must be
- able support 800 X 600 resolution.
- It also requires minimum 512K of system memory.
-
-
- * MOUSE support: A Microsoft compatible mouse is required. The mouse
- driver must be loaded before running the program. The driver must be
- a recent one, 1992 or later. If you have compatibility problems with
- your mouse you may want to try using the latest Microsoft Mouse driver
- instead of the mouse driver that came with your mouse package.
-
- * Please read documentation file AQ.DOC for a detailed game description.
-
- * ALIVECAT.EXE is our Software catalog, check out other Alive Software.
-
- * SHAREWARE version: Some of the animal voices and detailed graphics have
- been omitted from this shareware version of FOREST to save space. Also
- OCEAN and JUNGLE animals are only available in the complete Animal Quest
- version, see file ORDER.DOC for ordering information. The full version
- is Enhanced with over One Megabyte of graphics, music and sound effects.
