-
- Installation Instructions:
-
- Simply unzip the file ATETRIS.ZIP resulting with the following files:
-
- ATET.EXE - The main ACiD Tetris executable
- ATET.DAT - Program Datafile
- ATET.DOC - Document file
- SETUP.BAT - Setup BATCH file
- FILE_ID.DIZ - BBS information text
- ATET-W95.PIF - Win95 game icon
- STUP-W95.PIF - Win95 setup icon
-
- First time running the game, simply run the batch file "SETUP.BAT" by
- typing it at the DOS prompt, or by clicking on the MS-DOS shortcut "STUP-W95"
- from windows. You will then be presented with a soundcard select screen.
- Choose the appropriate sound card for your system (or select "Autodetect" to
- have the program attempt at auto-detecting your soundcard).
- Simply run ATET.EXE thereafter to play the game in DOS, or double
- click on the DOS shortcut "ATET-W95" from windows.
-

-
- System Requirements:
-
- ACiD Tetris has the ability to run on almost any system. Due to the
- nature of the music/sound system, a faster computer is needed for channel
- mixing. If you experience sluggish response from your system, try lowering
- the mixing rate at the sound-setup screen. Turn off the music as a last
- resort (it just makes the game a bit dull without the great music. :)
-
- No Music: With Music & Full Mixing Rates:
- 486/33mhz Pentium 90
-
- (Note: Mixing rates vary from sound-card to sound-card. These ratings apply
- to a Soundblaster 8-bit soundcard. Some soundcards, such as the Gravis
- Ultrasound, do hardware mixing, and will achieve the same results if not better
- on a 486/33Mhz machine as compared to a Pentium 120 with a Soundblaster.)
-
- A graphics card capable of displaying the screen resolution of
- 320x240x256 is also required. If your system has trouble achieving this mode,
- try using a vesa driver (such as UniVBE) to adjust videocard or monitor
- settings.
-
- ACiD Tetris will run under MS-DOS 3.1 or higher, and under Win95
- as well. Better performance can be achieved under DOS than Win95. Please
- use the shortcuts provided when running ACiD Tetris under Win95. ACiD Tetris
- will NOT run with sound under Windows 3.1, it will crash the system if
- sound is enabled.
-
-
-
-
- Running The Game:
- ACiD Tetris is pretty self explanitory. Simply follow the onscreen
- instructions at the main-selection screen by using the arrow keys and "ENTER"
- for choosing keyboard-setups, viewing high-scores, viewing credits, and changing
- music selection. To change the music selection, simply move to the line that
- displays "Music:", and hit ENTER. The game will then switch to the next song
- available.
