- **** THIS SOFTWARE IS FREEWARE! ****
-
- Barak's House is a gift to everybody - I have recieved unbelievable support
- for LORD. With over 20,000 legally registered Sysops I am assured this
- world of ours DOES support shareware, and supports it well.
-
- Thanks, and enjoy this add on.

- Design/concept/programming: Seth A. Robinson
-
- Description:
-
- This program is a LORD In Game Module, and can only be used as such. You
- cannot use this program as a stand alone door.
-
- Barak's House lets your users pal around with "Barak" a character in Leged
- Of The Red Dragon. Hit funny antics will keep you in stitches - But watch
- out for his crazy mother!
-
- Good things about this IGM:
-
- * Multinode - No interaction, but at least things won't screw up
-
- * Runs own maintenance - keeps data file in the main LORD dir, so it's
- possible to run Barak's with many LORD games at once - with one copy.
-
- * Can only be entered once a day - Keeps the IGM fresh and new - it will
- takes weeks to see everything.
-
- * Looks and 'feels' exactly like LORD, users won't even know they left!
-
- * At installation, it will add a few things to the Daily Log and BAR.TXT
- so users know it's there.
-
- * Lots of sick humor. Lots of funny things - I mean, thats what makes
- gaming fun!
-
- * Barak's House contains lots of small tricks, 3 possible arcade sequences,
- lots of possible powerups, but nothing that major. (So no, it won't
- ruin your game like some other IGM's out there...)
-
- * Can handle a carrier loss, automatically turns On Now stat off and deletes
- OUT.? file - (Even in the advent of a runtime error)
-
- * Supports ASCII, except for 'arcade sequences', and ASCII users are warned.
-
- * Sooo easy to setup, much easier then another door, even though there is
- more in this In Game Module them some entire games!
-
- INSTALLATION:
- Run BARAKCFG.EXE.
- Choose the install option and follow the prompts.
- You're done.
-
- You can put the files for this program in any directory, even the LORD
- directory. It creates two more files, BARAKCFG.CFG in it's directory, and
- BARAK.DAT in the LORD dir. Thats it.

-
- I love working on small programs like these, I can do strange things, and
- it's easy to error-check EVERYTHING. For example, there are a few scenes
- in Barak's House that use 'action' sequences...Which uses special timing
- routines that SHOULD run the same speed on every machine - This kind of lets
- me test routines for future doors and whatnot!
-
- OTHER 3RD PARTY AUTHORS:
-
- This is an example of what I expect in a LORD IGM. It should install and
- un-install very easily - handle a carrier loss and timeout without leaving
- the player 'online'. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me,
- I'll be glad to be your mentor/tester and critique your IGM.
-
- If you think this program is good enough to register, register LORD
- instead. :>
