-
- *********************************
- **** How to register Capsule ****
- *********************************
-
- Capsule is NOT freeware. You can evaluate the program for free, but
- if you like it and want to continue using it, you must register your
- copy. Registration fee is 8$ US. If you want to register your copy,
- please send me email to: jani_immonen@hotmail.com
-
- If making the currency change to 8$ US is impossible please send email
- to: jani_immonen@hotmail.com , and tell me what country you live in,
- and we'll surely find a way to make a registration payment.
-
- The unregistered version reminds you regularly to register your copy
- when you reach level 8 or higher. Also, you won't see all the
- animations and you can't complete the game. Otherwise the
- unregistered version has all the features of the full. When you
- register, all the restrictions are removed.
-
- When you receive your registration code all you have to do is enter
- the code to the game. Select SETTINGS in the main screen, then
- REGISTRATION. Enter the name and code I send to you and you're
- registered!

-
-
- **** This game is shareware ****
-
- That means you can freely copy and distribute the UNREGISTERED
- version of Capsule, as long as you distribute ALL the original
- files. Those files are:
- -CAPSULE.EXE
- -GRAPHS.DAT
- -SOUNDS.DAT
- -README.TXT
- -LUEMINUT.TXT - this is a Finnish version of README.TXT
- -HOWTOPLAY.TXT
- -OHJEET.TXT - this is a Finnish version of HOWTOPLAY.TXT
-
- If one or more of these files are missing, DO NOT continue using that
- copy, get a new copy from: http:/batman.jytol.fi/~janimm/capsule
-
- When you register, you get free upgrades of Capsule until version
- 2.0. Upgrades, until version 2.0 of Capsule, will use the same
- registration code, so you won't need to re-register when you upgrade
- the game. In some cases you might have to re-enter your registration
- code after upgrading so make sure you write down your code and keep
- it in safe place.

-
- **** Problems ? ****
-
- 1. Game doesn't start:
-
- Make sure you have DirectX v5 or later installed. DirectX libraries
- are not included in the Capsule package because of their large size.
- You can find the latest DirectX version in the Microsoft homepages at
- www.microsoft.com/directx/, or, for example, included with some other
- game packages or on magazine cover CD's.
-
-
- 2. Game is too slow:
-
- When in the main game screen press F12 and you will see the FPS rate
- in the lower righthand corner of your screen. If the FPS rate is less
- than 60, your computer can't run Capsule fast enough. If you have a
- 100mhz or less Pentium with a 1MB graphics accelerator, your system
- may be too slow. If this is not a case, check that your graphics
- accelerator and soundcard drivers are 100% DirectX compatible.
- Check out the newest drivers at your hardware manufacturers'
- homepages.
-
- 3. Game is too fast:
-
- If the FPS rate is greater than 80, the game might be unplayable.
- Some Pentium II systems, with a fast graphics accelerator, can have
- FPS rates as high as 150. Try changing the monitor refresh rate from
- -Optimal- to a lower setting, this will most likely solve the problem.
- The cause of this behavior is unknown.
