Dark Rift PC (Version 1.0F) 6 / 26 / 97
Please use full screen for easier viewing.
Welcome to the Dark Rift Demo.
The full version of Dark Rift, a fully 3 dimensional weapon-
based fighting game, boasts 8 playable characters and two bosses.
Character attributes include as many as 10 hits in a combo,
exploding projectile attacks, get up combos, grabs, specials,
and grab and projectile moves hidden in combos.
In this special demo package, only two characters are playable,
Gore and Aaron. There is also no music. We hope you enjoy
Dark Rift and look for the full PC version of this exciting brawler
in stores soon.

SVGA 16-bit, 2MB PCI Video Card
16 Audio Card

Gravis GamePad Pro or Microsoft Sidewinder game pads
Getting Started:
1. Turn on computer to start Windows95.
2. Start "dr_demo.exe" from Windows Explorer
or double-click on "dr_demo".
Notes:
1. DirectX is required in order to play Dark Rift PC. DirectX
is installed automatically when the setup program
(setup.exe) is run. If for any reason DirectX has not
been installed, please install it with dxsetup.exe located
in the DirectX directory of the Dark Rift CD.
2. Color Palette should be set to "High Color
(16-bit - 65,536 colors)". Dark Rift can only be played in
16-bit color. If your video card appears unable to support
High Color or there is no option listed for it, please
contact either your computer or video card manufacturer
for further assistance.
3. The keyboard has been configured to allow for maximum
ease-of-use. Remapping of keys may result in reduced key
combinations on some keyboards. If you use an ergonomic
keyboard you may have to reconfigure it for comfort.
4. For demo purposes only, Aaron and Gore are the only playable
characters.
Troubleshooting:
1. If you are using the Microsoft SideWinder game pad, use only
the Microsoft SideWinder driver version 1.5 or greater.
The version 1.5 driver can be found on the Microsoft website.
2. If there is no response from the keyboard or game pad after
starting Dark Rift, check the DirectX setup to make sure
the Display Driver is properly installed. Dxsetup.exe is
located in the DirectX directory of the Dark Rift CD-ROM.
If the Display Driver does not report a version number or
"Not Supported" is displayed, try reinstalling DirectX.
Or update your Display Driver in Display Properties -
Settings. Then reinstall DirectX.
3. If you are using a 2MB 3D accelerator display adapter, we
recommend that you disable the Direct3D hardware acceleration
in the DirectX Setup. If not, you will get an out of memory
error with certain characters. Dxsetup.exe is located in the
DirectX directory of the Dark Rift CD-ROM. If you add memory
to your display adapter, we recommend that you enable the
Direct3D hardware acceleration in the DirectX Setup.
4. If your video card appears unable to support High Color
(16-bit - 65,536 colors) or if there is no option listed for
it, please contact either your computer or video card
manufacturer for further assistance.
5. The 3DFX Voodoo chipset (Monster 3D, Righteous 3D) does not
support all modes of DirectX. In particular this chipset
does not allow you display 3D in a window. Dark Rift will
not work with these video cards.
6. If you have an ATI 3D Rage II video card, you may experience
some sprite transparency problems. This has to do with the
compatability of the display driver with DirectX. To correct
this, we recommend that you disable the Direct3D hardware
acceleration in the DirectX Setup.
7. You may experience transparancy problems with the S3 Virge
chipset (Stealth 3D 2000). But this can be resolved by
downloading the latest drivers from S3 or Diamond.
8. Selected video cards have not been shipped with the latest
DirectX compatible drivers. Updated drivers can can be
obtained from each videocard manufacturer website. These
video cards are:
STB Lightspeed 128 (needs version 1.23 or greater)
Hercules Dynamite 128 (needs version 1.23 or greater)
VideoLogic GraphixStar 600 (needs version 4.01 or greater)

The keyboard has been configured to allow for maximum ease-of-use.
Remapping of keys may result in reduced key combinations for
some keyboards.
