*****************************************************************************
1. Thank You
Everyone at New World would like to thank you for your patience in waiting
for this update. We know it took a little longer than we promised, but we're
sure you'll enjoy it. Have fun trashing the competition.
*****************************************************************************
2. Installing The Patch
In order for the patch to execute properly, you must have Zephyr already
installed on your hard drive. Copy zepup11.exe to your Zephyr directory.
Type 'zepup11'. 4 files should decpompress, patch.exe, patch.rtp, readme.bat &
zephyr.txt. Type 'patch' to update your version. You're ready to go!
*****************************************************************************
3. New and Exciting Features
Muti-Player
Up to six players can play on a network using the IPX protocol and Netbios.
The master needs to be logged in first.
Modem and null modem features have also been added. For best results, use
the null modem cable at a baud rate of 38400 (16550 uart required). We
recommend both players using Pentium based computers. Only 9600 baud rate
can be selected when using the phone lines, but you can force
the modem to a higher rate. For modem play, it is highly recommended you
turn off music. If it takes too long to connect or pauses during game play,
try a different Init string.
Multi-Player Death Match
Death Match allows 2 or more players to go head to head in a network or modem
game without any computer opponents.
Other Cool New Stuff
Distance shading is now utilized in the high detail mode.
Support for the All-Pro 7th Sense Headset
*****************************************************************************
NOTES
1) Cybermaxx users should be able to initialize the headset while in Zephyr.
2) In Multi-Player games, the Master should login before all slaves.
Try changing who the master is if you are having connection problems.
3) If the game is not running smoothly, try turning off the sound or
play in low detail mode.
