Football for Windows is stored in a self extracting archive named
WINFBALL.EXE. To install the program, copy WINFBALL.EXE to a
directory on your hard disk. Then from a DOS prompt type WINFBALL,
and hit RETURN, or just double-click on WINFBALL.EXE from within
Windows' File Manager.
Seven additional files should be created in the directory with
WINFBALL.EXE. They are:
FOOTBALL.EXE the windows executable file
BALLHELP.HLP the windows help file
FOOTBALL.INI the initialization file
LOGTILE2.BMP a bitmap that can be tiled as a background
TSOFLOG2.BMP a bitmap that can be tiled as a background
REGISTER.TXT An ASCII text registration form
CHNGADDR.TXT An ASCII text change of address form
WINFBALL.EXE can now be deleted from your hard disk. Remember to
keep a copy of WINFBALL.EXE and this text file for backup purposes.
The easiest way to put FOOTBALL.EXE in to your Program Manager
is by opening Windows' File Manager and Program Manager at the
same time, with one on one side of the screen and one on the other.
Then highlight FOOTBALL.EXE by pressing the left mouse button.
While still holding the left mouse button down, "drag" FOOTBALL.EXE
onto the spot in Program Manager where you want it stored. Then
release the left mouse button and the icon for Football for Windows
will be displayed. The game can now be played by double-clicking
on the new icon.
The two files LOGTILE2.BMP and TSOFLOG2.BMP are bitmaps that can
be tiled as Windows backgrounds. They should be stored in the same
directory as your other background bitmaps. However, they are not
required for playing the game, so they may be deleted.
The file REGISTER.TXT is an ASCII text file that can be printed
and completed to register this copy of Football for Windows. The
file can be printed using your favorite word processor or by typing
TYPE REGISTER.TXT > PRN and hitting RETURN from a DOS prompt if
you have a dot matrix printer. If you register this version of
Football for Windows, you will receive a copy of the latest version
of the game (with several dialog boxes removed) and your name will
be entered into our database so you can be notified when new
versions are released. Another text file, CHNGADDR.TXT can be used
to notify us if you move. The two above mentioned TXT files files
are not essential to the play of the game so they can be deleted
when you are finished with them.
FOOTBALL should be stored in its own subdirectory. However, it can
be stored anywhere. It does not have to be stored in you path. The
initialization file MUST be stored in the Football for Windows
startup directory or in your path. The program should work without
the initialization file, but games and matches cannot be stored or
retrieved.
