- Readme file
-
- 1. Overview
- ----------------------------------
- This update is being provided to add a few features that have been frequently
- requested by our users. These options can be turned on and off by the user to
- customize the game more to your specific skills and preferences.
-
- Again, these options were added at the request of a few users, they may or
- may not be suitable for your flying skills and preferences. Remember these
- options can be turned of and on as you like.
-
- 2. Installing the Up-date
- ----------------------------------
- 2.1
- The first step to installing the Update is to copy the new GLORY.EXE file into
- your Wings of Glory directory. This file is identical to the original file
- with the exception of adding the new options.
-
- ***NOTE*** After installing the update you find you wish to return the game
- to its original version, simply reinstall the game from the CD.
-
- 3. The new Options
- ----------------------------------
- 3.1
- You can activate any of the following options while in flight. Simply use
- the key-command for the specific options you wish to activate. As these
- options are activated a plaque will appear with the name of the option and
- its status. These options will not show up in the Options menu ( [Alt] O ),
- but will be saved when you select SAVE in the Options menu. The first time
- you play the game with the new file you will need to reset your options in
- the game. They may default to settings different than when you last played
- the game.
-
- 3.2
- Spins [Alt] S
-
- This option will allow the plane to get into a spin much easier. This
- feature will only work if Stalls are on in the Options Menu
-
- 3.3
- Faster Rotation Response [Alt] R
-
- The only way to describe this option is to call it the "F-16" option.
- This will cause your WW1 plane to rotate like a jet. This option is intended
- for users who are having trouble maneuvering their plane. If you are not
- having trouble flying the plane we recommend NOT selecting this option.
-
- 3.4
- Far Terrain Clipping Auto
-
- This feature relieves most of the line blocking in the terrain when looking
- from far away. This option is automatic and can not be turned off.
-
- 3.5
- Black outs [Alt] P
-
- This was a strongly debated subject about if you could black out in a WW1
- airplane. It was very hard to find documented incidents regarding black-outs
- in WW1 aircraft. For those of you who wanted them, here they are.
- With this option on you will still find it very hard to black-out,
- especially if you have Wing Shearing turned on.
-
- 3.6
- Lewis Gun View [F8]
-
- This option allows you to look at roughly a 45 degree angle up in all the
- planes. This works well in some planes and not so well in others.
-
- 3.7
- Unlimited Fuel [Alt] U
-
- This is for those of you that just lack the little bit of fuel to return
- home after the battle. If you find you run out of fuel too much and want
- to remove that problem, this option is for you.
