Final changes and remarks:
- This demo version runs only on
computers with 16mb of memory!
The final version runs on systems
with at least 8mb.
- This demo version has a built in
timelimit of 14 minutes. After
this time the game is over.
- Added a new cockpit mode;
off and small. On slower
machines this will allow you
to turn off the cockpit, at
the price of reducing the
size of the combat window
by half.
- By pressing ALT-F5, you can
switch back and forth between
FULL LINE, HALF LINE and
optimized HALF LINE. The HALF
LINE and the optimized HALF
LINE are especially useful
with slow processors and/or
slower graphics card.
- By pressing ALT-F6, you can
switch the PERSPECTIVE
CORRECTION on and off. On
slow computers, having the
correction turned off brings
advantages in speed.
- On a 486 computer, you should
select the following options
for combat (vector graphics):
1. perspective correction=OFF
2. shading=FLAT
3. number of channels (music = 4)
4. cockpit=ON or OFF AND SMALL
- If you encounter problems with
the CauseWay DosExtender, then
you can try starting
ARCHIMEDEAN DYNASTY with the
DOS4GW DosExtender as well.
To do this, start up the
ADD4G.EXE program.
- If an overflow error occurs when
starting up ARCHIMEDEAN
DYNASTY, the cause can lie in an
old mouse driver. Please use an
up-to-date Microsoft-compatible
mouse driver.
- If the mouse moving very
slowly, again this can lie
in the mouse driver. Here too,
it helps to use a newer
Microsoft mouse driver.
- In the DEV folder in the AD folder
on the CD there is a configuration
file for the Thrustmaster F16 FLCS. |
