Compulsive Gambler's Toolkit for OS/2 v1.10
IglooSoft is proud to present the Compulsive Gambler's Toolkit(TM)!
This version of Compulsive Gambler's Toolkit contains:
Blackjack 1.0
Caribbean Poker 1.0
Caribbean Stud Poker 1.3a
Multi Poker 1.05
INSTALLATION
Unzip GAMBLER.ZIP into a directory and run the enclosed Install
program (INSTALL.CMD). This will create a target directory if
necessary, copy files, and optionally create program objects. You
must have REXX support installed to run INSTALL.CMD.
To manually install, simply copy all files to a single directory
and make program objects for the two EXE files, MPoker.EXE and
CaribStd.EXE. Neither requires command line arguments.
IMPORTANT - The Compulsive Gambler's Toolkit(TM) uses Dynamic Link
Libraries for games and card faces. If these files are copied into
the game directory (default), make sure that the LIBPATH statement
in CONFIG.SYS contains the current path (;.;)
That is, if:
LIBPATH=F:\OS2;F:\OS2\MDOS
change to
LIBPATH=.;F:\OS2;F:\OS2\MDOS
and reboot. Alternatively, you may simply copy the *.DLL files to
a directory already listed in LIBPATH, but this is not recommended.
OPERATION
The games are fairly self explanatory. Online help is available,
although incomplete, especially for Multi Poker. Multi Poker is
an expandable game, and as of this release includes the following
games:
Jacks or Better, Deuces Wild, Bonus Deluxe
User preferences, including statistical and financial data are
stored in a single file, Gambler.INI, for both games.
TERMS
The Compulsive Gambler's Toolkit(TM) for OS/2 is freeware. Feel
free to distribute it at will. In exchange, I would appreciate
any and all comments regarding the games, especially bug reports
and suggested improvements. Email IglooSoft at igloo@mc.net
Anyone interested in writing new game DLLs for MultiPoker should
also contact IglooSoft.
