IMPORTANT VERSION NOTES
There are 3 versions of Darksun out at the moment.V1.0s of the Trainer WILL
work fine on the first 2 versions.The original and the second bug fix release
(the one that didn't work!) are the first 2 versions of Darksun.Each DSUN.EXE
file for these 2 versions is 615,392 bytes long.Use DSUNTSR.COM on these and
you will have to make NO CHANGES to TRAINER.BAT.Also use DS-PAT.COM only if you
need to make an I/O patch for the Trainer to work.
For the latest version of Darksun which is supposed to correct the Fatal Final
Battle Crash the DSUN.EXE file is 610,944 bytes long.Use DSUNTSR2.COM on this
version ONLY!If you want to use the TRAINER.BAT file use a text editor such as
DOS EDIT.COM and EDIT TRAINER.BAT.Change each instance of DSUNTSR to DSUNTSR2
or just rename DSUNTSR2.COM DSUNTSR.COM if you do have this version.You won't
need V1.0s of the Trainer anyway in this case.
I am sorry for any confusion this may cause and also for the delay of this
Trainer(s).I wanted to wait until the game was finished and release the best
possible Trainer(s) for whatever were the current versions of the game.Also
to save you from making an mistakes the files needed for the latest version
of DSUN.EXE (610,944 bytes) are in the file UPDATE.ZIP.If you don't need them
don't clutter up the directory with them.
For the rest of this .NFO file I just refer to DSUNTSR.COM as the Trainer file
.If you are using V1.2 just substitute DSUNTSR2.COM in it's place if you have
not already renamed the file.
Happy Training.....

THE TRAINER :
What is a Trainer?It's an Interactive Utility that "Hides" in memory that
allows you to get the "Upper Hand" in those often too-Tough Games.It may
even,in some cases,make the game more challenging for you "True" gameplayers.
In either case it is my hope to enhance the Enjoyment of playing these games
through the use of my utilities.
The Trainer (Either Loader-TSR or TSR) loads itself into memory and interfaces
itself into the Game Code.Once the game is running you can access the Trainer
via "Hot-Key" Trainer Functions that will alter the Game Data/Code in memory
as it is running.These functions allow you to change the "Rules" of the game to
,hopefully,allow you to enjoy it even more.
Note that this Trainer is slightly different than ones I have written in the
past.Due to some problems with the normal Loader/TSR and the Save Games in
DARKSUN I choose to present this Trainer in this straight TSR format.This means
that when you run the Trainer you will be brought back to DOS after the Trainer
opening Trainer screens (it will tell you it is INSTALLED).From there you will
have to load the game yourself (or use the enclosed BATCHFILE.See BATCHFILE
NOTES below).When the game is completed you will also have to Remove the
Trainer from memory to avoid any possible conflicts with another application.
BATCHFILE NOTES :
For your ease I have altered the DARKSUN.BAT file to include the Trainer TSR
load command and the command to remove it from memory upon the game's exit.The
new batchfile is called TRAINER.BAT.You can simply type TRAINER in the DARKSUN
directory and the Trainer will load and the game will load through the
batchfile after that.At the end of the batch file the Trainer is removed from
memory.
├──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
HOW TO : (TRAINER)
Copy the Trainer files into your Darksun game directory.Switch to the Darksun
game directory and TYPE DSUNTSR.You will see the opening Network Trainer screen
.Press any key and you will be presented with a screen reminding you of the
various Trainer Functions.Press any key again and you will be brought back to
the DOS prompt (if you are not using the enclosed TRAINER.BAT file).You have to
load the game yourself from here.When the game finishes remember to Remove the
Trainer from memory by TYPING DSUNTSR -R (again if you are using TRAINER.BAT
this is not needed.)
During the game use the following Key Combinations to your advantage :
(Note : When the word GREY is used it is used to describe the GREY Colored
keys (on most systems) such as the keys around the Number Pad and keys like
CAPSLOCK,PAUSE,SCROLL LOCK,HOME,END etc.)
F7 - Press this key to Activate the Unlimited Hit Points Mode.While this mode
is ON your Party will never lose any HP's.Press it again to turn it OFF.
F8 - Press this Key to Activate the Unlimited Psionics Mode.This mode will
allow your Party to use thier Psionic skills without losing any PSI
points.Press this key again to De-activate the function.
F9 - Press this key and your Party will have Unlimited GOLD(c.p.'s).Press it
again and the game will subtract from your total cp's as before.
F10 - Press this key and you will turn ON the Unlimited Spells Mode.While this
mode is on you will have an unlimited number of Cleric or Mage spells at
your disposal.Press this Key again to De-Activate it.
GREY PLUS (+) - Press this key and it will Restore each member of the Party
to "OKAY".This will work even if they are DEAD.They will come
back to Normal on their next turn.
GREY ASTERIK (*) - Press this key and it will Restore each Party Member's
Current Hit Points and Psionic Points back to their Maximum.
GREY MINUS (-) - Press this key to give each member of the Party 300,000 EXP
points.This will be enough to raise them all to Level 9.The
game will recognize these usually after Combat and upgrade
each Character accordingly.
BACKSLASH (/) - When you press this key you will give the Party 1,000,000 cp's.
PERIOD (.) - Hit this key and all the Party Member's Stats will be increased to
25.
LEFT BRACKET ([) - Pressing this key will give the Party Member's 500 Current
and Maximum Hit Points Points.
RIGHT BRACKET (]) -Hit this key and it will give each Party Member 500 Current
and 500 Maximum Psionic Points.
SEMI-COLON (;) - Pressing this key will give all Party Members ALL the Cleric
and Mage Spells.You cannot access higher level Spells if
you Charcater Level isn't high enough.(Ex. a Level 1 Cleric
cannot use Level 5 spells)
APOSTROPHE (') - Press this key to give your Party ALL the available Psionic
Skills.You will still be able to Improve them.
├──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
NOTES :
Every now and then a Character will be Charmed or Held and the Restore
Condition Function (GREY PLUS) will not work on the first try.This seems to
have somethnig to do with the # of moves for each Character and the internal
system used to shuffle the Turns for each Character.
As mentioned before when you toggle the 300,000 Experience points the game
does not recognize them (other than visually) them until after you have done
something that would normally award you EXP points (Like Combat).Then it will
advance each Character level by level until they reach level 9.Along the
way each Character will be allowed to choose new Psionic Skills and Spells
as Applicable.
If you have given your Charcaters the 500/500 Hit points with the Trainer but
have NOT reached Level 9 yet you will have the Maximum # of HP's reduced for
some unknown reason when you advance Levels.Just Toggle Left Bracker ([) again
to restore it to 500/500.
You may notice that some Psionic Skills can be used only once and then you
have to Rest to gain them back again.With the All Psionic Skills Toggle
(APOSTROPHE ') you can use these skills over and over,but you have to toggle
this Function each time as needed.
├──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
OTHER TRAINER FUNCTIONS :
To manipulate the Keybeep the PC Speaker makes on Trainer Functions :
F11 - Press F11 for a Higher pitched keypress feedback.
F12 - Press F12 for a Lower pitched keypress feedback.
S - Toggle ON/OFF the keypress feedback from the PC Speaker.
Press these keys any time or as many times as needed to get the desired
effect.Also note that for Trainer functions that Toggle ON/OFF the ON keypress
will always be a LOW pitch then a HIGHER pitched tone and the OFF will be
the reverse (a HIGH pitched tone with and immediate LOWER pitched tone).
TSR COMMAND LINE FUNCTIONS :
This Trainer is a little different that my usual work.It is a stright TSR
(Terminate and Stay Resident) program.It won't load the game for you like some
other Trainer I have written.This also means that when the game ends the
Trainer will still be in memory.Here are the Command line functions you can
use with the Trainer :
DSUNTSR -R Removes the Trainer from Memory
DSUNTSR -V Displays the current Trainer Engine and Trainer Version #
DSUNTSR -? Displays available Command line switches

If you use this Trainer and enjoyed what it did for you then please send a
Donation.Without your support this cannot be possible much longer.Many hours
of work go into the design and coding of these Trainers not to mention the
continued testing and updating.Games cost alot of money.Keeping up on the
the Latest,most popular games can be an expensive habit.Add in the time spent
programming (in my spare time,what little I have) and the money/time resulting
from Online support through CIS/AOL and this turns to be a major commitment.It
is my wish to keep offering Full Trainers with your continued support.Please
