-
- ---- KNOWN PROBLEMS -------------------------------------------
-
- This pre-release demo of Titanic uses an alpha version of
- Cyberflix's DreamFactory engine. While DreamFactory has been
- tested on many configurations, there are several known problems
- with this version, and probably a few unknown ones as well.
- Cyberflix makes no warrenty as to the fitness of the alpha or
- its ability to run on your computer. That said, here's the
- list of known problems in this version:
-
- - Titanic currently requires about 8000K free memory in
- Windows, which means it probably won't run on a machine
- with 8MB of RAM. Memory requirements are being
- tightened up, and the release version will definitly run
- on an 8MB machine
-
- - The loader program (the one with the four buttons) has
- problems on some Windows 3.1 machines. If the loader
- causes a General Protection Fault, you can bypass it.
- Run \INSTALL\16BIT\_SETUP.EXE on the CD to install, or
- run the program TI.EXE in the folder on your hard drive
- to play.
-
- - The uninstaller program will not remove any saved games
- in the Titanic directory, and will complain that there
- were files "not created by Titanic" in the folder. If
- this happens, just delete the folder by hand.
-
- - If you have a joystick, be sure it's calibrated before
- you run Titanic, or you might end up spinning in circles.
- You can disable joystick support from the options menu
- in the loader.
