- CHECKERMANIA™ 1.02 DEMO Release Notes
- March 15, 1993
-
-
- Thank you for your interest in CHECKERMANIA. CHECKERMANIA is a
- magical twist on the old game of checkers. The introduction of magic
- spells has transformed it into a very exciting and more challenging
- game. In addition to magic, a "Return the Flag" variation was added
- to eliminate any chance of stalemate. Two players can play against
- each other or you can match your wits against the computer. It's
- great fun for all ages.
-
- This program is a demonstration version of CHECKERMANIA. Try it out
- and if you like it you can order the fully functional version directly
- from Majestic Software for only $12. Just use the on-line order form
- by clicking the "How To Order..." button in CHECKERMANIA's opening
- window. This will provide you all the instructions needed to order.
-
- This demonstration version can be freely copied; however, under no
- circumstances must it be sold or bundled with other software sold for
- profit.
-
- Some of CHECKERMANIA's features have been disabled in this
- demonstration version; but enough have been left in to allow you to
- see if you really like it. CHECKERMANIA's on-line help explains all
- the features of the full working version (so you can see what you're
- missing!). Also, the "Custom Setup" and "Preferences" windows have
- Balloon Help.
-
-
- SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
-
- System 6.0.7 or later. (System 7 recommended, of course)
-
- 1.2 MBytes RAM in color and 600K in B&W (These are in addition to your
- system software requirements).
-
- Only 1-, 2-, 4-, and 8-bit Monitor Settings are permitted. 16- and
- 24-bit modes are not yet supported.
-
- Due to the amount of sound and graphics, it is highly recommended that
- you execute CHECKERMANIA from your hard disk.
-
-
- ADJUSTING MEMORY REQUIREMENTS
-
- Using Finder's "Get Info" command, you can change the amount of memory
- that is allocated to CHECKERMANIA. When running in color, you must

- 1-bit video (Mac Plus, etc.) you can set the Minimum size as low as
- 600K.

- TROUBLESHOOTING
-
- For those who have 040 based machines or accelerators, try turning the
- 040's cache OFF if you are having problems.
-
- Thorough testing with Virtual Memory was not performed. If you are
- encountering a problem, you may try turning the Virtual Memory feature
- OFF using the Memory Control Panel.
-
- If you are still having problems you should increase the Minimum
- Application size of CHECKERMANIA using the Get Info window from
