========================

This is our version of Descent for the Amiga. It was based on the linux port
by Patrick McCarthy. We chose this one because it had no assembler left in it,
and it compiled with only a few modifications (to make it actually work required
far more work). This version compiled with GCC from the ADE/Geek Gadgets CD.

=======================

Currently requires:

	o Either a graphics card or AGA/ECS. With a graphics card, you
 	  need to have CyberGraphX or a compatible system installed.
          Reports confirm that it also works with Picasso96.

	o A commercial Descent I HOG and PIG file, at least version 1.5. Must be
	  the PC version. If you have a MAC version, try the '-nosongs' switch.

	o A fast processor. A o4o or o6o is recommended. There's nothing stopping
	  you from trying it on a o3o, but it will be slow. A o2o is required.

	o AHI V4 must be installed.

	o ixemul.library 47.2 (Available on ftp.ninemoons.com, or our website)

	o Kickstart 3.0 or better.

	o About 10 MB of memory. Dunno if it works with VMM, I didn't bother to try.
	  It will obviously be slow if it does.
