- Note to SYSOPS!
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------
- This file will contain the changes or revisions to the Super Rig! game
- and will serve as a quick guide to SysOps in setting up game upgrades.
- In no way, shape or form is this a substitute for 'reading the manual'
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------

-
- Whats New in V4.0 of Super Rig!?
- --------------------------------
- (1) Play upgrade - more ANSI screens added
-
- (2) Game more randomized as to play scenerio's.
-
- (3) Additional BBS caller file/type support.
-
- (4) BIOS and DIRECT screen write routines.
- a. BIOS makes calls to resident ANSI driver installed (ie. ANSI.SYS)
- b. DIRECT will write directly to screen for fast writes. (best!)
-
- (5) Expanded support in the SETUP.EXE program for quick setup.
-
- (6) Color bulletin is no longer 'animated' and will not get "split-up" by
- a 23 line "More? (Y/N)" type prompts.
-
-
-
- Ver 4.1 Update -> Additional MULTI-Node support added!
- --------------
- (1) Added Registered user info fields into SUPERIG.CFG to eliminate the
- need for a separate ".key" file. Although the game will still look
- in the current directory for "SUPERIG.KEY" if the information is not
- in the SUPERIG.CFG file. Entering your registered Name and serial
- number into this '.CFG' file will skip the disk check for the .Key
- to auto-register the game.
-
- For those who have previously registered earlier versions of this
- game and you do not have a ".key" file or know your serial number,
- you can contact me via Email on my BBS and I will give you the info
- needed to enter into SETUP to register once you've downloaded this
- game upgrade.
-
- A few minor program cliches were corrected for BIOS support.
-
- Configuration file name/setup slightly changed to support from 1-99
- nodes under Novell networks. Now command line switch supports this
- via /NODE1 through /NODE99. Although the SETUP program still only
- sets 'multinode' operations from nodes 1-4, you can directly edit
- the configuration filenames from SUPRIG1.CFG through SUPRIG99.CFG
- If you are upgrading from previous versions (ie 4.0 and below) you
- can run setup to enter your BBS config directly or run the latest
- SETUP.EXE program and enter the required information. Version 4.0
- users need only rename their SUPERIGx.CFG for nodes 1-4 by dropping
- the "E" in the configuration filename, to SUPRIGxx.CFG where the
- "xx" is a number between 1 and 99.
-
-
- Ver 4.2 Update
- --------------
- (1) A few sysops have asked for a feature to turn off the 'Horn' in
- Super Rig when it comes up on the title screen. They sleep next
- to their computers and folks are keeping them awake at night by
- the playing the game a lot! So, for registered users I have now
- added a configuration field that will 'turn off' the horn and any
- beep for dead time in the game. Simply add the uppercase words
- 'HORN OFF' in the last line (#12) of the Superig.cfg file. Now
- you can go back to sleep...
-
- (2) Minor screen updates and file handling features were added in.
-
-
- Ver 4.3 Update
- --------------
- (1) Direct support for WWIV BBS's installed for command line for use
- in reading CHAIN.TXT for caller information. (V4.07 and up)
