INSTALLATION:
=============
To install lightwaves, simply uncompress the files, create a directory
for it and place all the files in that directory. Do not move the
On-Line Help (.INF) file or the Wave (.WAV) files from this directory.
If copying these files from a CD-ROM be sure none of the files are marked
READ ONLY after copying them, most importantly the PRES.DEF file.
To avoid this problem copy the files from an OS/2 or DOS session and by
dragging and droping in the desktop.
Create a Program object on your desktop for LightWaves or run
LightWaves from the command line like so:
Example C:\directory\lightwav.exe
Where 'C:\directory\' is the drive and directory in which LightWaves
was installed, 'lightwav.exe' is the executable file name.
PRESENTATION NOTE:
==================
When a presentation is started, LightWaves starts with a black screen. Just
press the Spacebar to proceed. Each presentation will end in the same way.
Those with CD-ROM drives will experience a 1 - 2 second delay before being
able to start the presentation from the black screen, this was unavoidable.
Users of LightWaves v1.0 & v1.1:
================================
Users of LightWaves v1.0 will NOT be able to use their current
presentation files (.PRS) with LightWaves v1.21. Users of LightWaves v1.1
