- Private Investigator ReadMe
- ---------------------------
-
- Thanks for purchasing Private Investigator, the most advanced
- adult title in the industry.
-
- There are a couple of points however you should take a closer
- look at :
-
- 1. Improving Performance (Windows 95)
- 2. Display problems
- 3. Game sounds
- 4. Background sounds
- 5. Additional levels and cheat keys
- 6. Memory
- 7. AutoRun in Windows 95
- 8. Password security
- 9. Private Investigator Sequel ...
- 10. Additional questions and remarks
-
- 1. Improving Performance (Windows 95)
- ------------------------
-
- Make sure that Windows 95 is optimised for your CD-ROM drive.
- Windows 95 provides settings for CD caching and for accessing
- various CD-ROM drive speeds.
-
- To review and modify these settings:
-
- 1. Select the "My Computer" icon on your desktop and click it
- with the secondary mouse button (usually the right mouse
- button).
-
- 2. Choose Properties.
-
- 3. Choose the Performance tab.
-
- 4. Choose the File System button.
-
- 5. Choose the CD-ROM tab.
-
- In this box, make sure that the Supplemental Cache size is set
- to "Large." Also, verify that the Optimise access pattern is
- correctly set for the type of CD-ROM drive that is installed
- on your system (single-speed, double-speed, etc.).
-
- 2. Display problems
- -------------------
-
- There are two versions of the game on this disk. One using WinG
- (an engine which allows you to play both full screen and windowed)
- and one not using WinG which can only play full screen.
-
- If you encounter problems with the windowed version you should try
- the full screen version.
-
- 3. Game sounds
- --------------
-
- If you encounter problems with the sound in the arcade section
- (the screen stalls when sounds are played) you can try to reduce
- the number of channels or disable the game sounds in the setup
- menu. You can also try to logout of your network in order to speed
- things up.
-
- 4. Background sounds
- --------------------
-
- Some sound boards (like the IBM Thinkpad 755c) have no real midi
- built in. Those boards play the midifiles through software which
- causes the game to slow down. In that case you should choose to
- disable the background sounds.
-
- As the background sounds may be too loud on some systems you can
- use the setup utility or the tuner in the office to adjust the
- volume.
-
- 5. Additional levels and cheat keys
- -----------------------------------
-
- On our Internet web-site (http://www.sex.se) you can find
- additional arcade levels and cheat keys for the arcade action.
- You can select and load an external level using the last option
- ('Loading external level') in the chopper cockpit.
-
- 6. Memory
- ---------
-
- Due to the fact that the Video For Windows system uses DOS memory
- as well you should have at least 500KB free DOS memory. You can
- check this by starting a DOS box and typing MEM. The 'largest
- executable program size' should be at least 500.000.
- One of the symptoms of memory shortage is the fact that you can
- not start any video to play ar it just shows picture and then
- continues. Make more memory available and this problem will
- be solved.
-
- 7. AutoPlay in Windows 95
- ------------------------
-
- Private Investigator supports the Windows 95 AutoPlay function.
- The only thing you have to do is to insert the CD and it starts
- playing. As some systems do not support the AutoPlay function
- you have to start the menu program yourself. By starting
- 'D:\Investig\Menu.Exe'where 'D' is your CD-Rom drive.
-
- PS : Take care ! We have encountered problems with some PC-systems
- when the CD is in the CD-drive when you start up Windows '95.
- Put the CD in the CD-drive after you have started Windows '95.
-
- 8. Password Security
- --------------------
-
- As this Private Investigator is an adult CD-game, we have added for
- your convenience a Password protection.
- The first time you start Private Investigator, you will be asked
- to enter your password and re-type it again in the check box (to
- avoid spelling mistakes). Afterwards, each time you start up this
- game you will be prompted for your password.
- Should you have forgotten your password or have any other problem
- starting this Private Investigator game, you can go to your
- \WINDOWS directory and delete/edit the file called
- "IMAGELIN.INI".
- This will delete ALL your settings including your password. Next
- time you start the game, you will be again considered a first
- time player.
- PS : in this case, do not forget to adapt your other settings
- e.g. ARCADE scrolling, sounds, etc...
-
-
- 9. Private Investigator Sequel ...
- ------------------------------
-
- Look for Private Investigator II ...
- You get to solve new cases with more girls, more explicit sex and
- more interactivity. In other words : More fun !
