CHECKLIST FOR SETUP/PLAY PROBLEMS
----------------------------------
Before you assume there is something wrong with the game(s) or you
cannot get them to run on your system please check the following.
If you answer yes to any of them you are doing something wrong.
1. Rise To Power and GodFather of Crime:
_____ - You forgot to make sure SHARE is loaded (for Multi-node only)
_____ - You forgot to configure the GOC.CTL/RTP.CTL file first.
_____ - You forgot to run the GOCINIT.EXE/RTPINIT.EXE after
configuring the CTL file. Note: GOCEDIT.EXE/RTPEDIT.EXE
file can be used in place of these IF you are registered.
_____ - You forgot to run the MAINT.EXE file after running the
GOCINIT.EXE/RTPINIT.EXE files.
_____ - You forgot to run the MAINT.EXE file as a daily event.
_____ - You did not try to reset the game after experiencing a game
problem and you just installed a new version of the game
over an old one.
_____ - The start up batch routine does not get the drop file
INTO the directory where the game is located.
_____ - You attempted to alter the key.dat file without obtaining
the correct key code from me directly.
_____ - You are running a fossil but forgot to configure the
appropriate CTL file to show that you are using a fossil
and at what speed you have locked the port.
----- - You have not tried to change to a different drop file format
to see if that might be the problem.
----- - You do NOT have ANSI.SYS installed.
----- - You do NOT have ALL the game files in the same directory?
2. Task Force Broadside, Ship of the Line and Grunt Fest:
_____ - You forgot to make sure SHARE is loaded.
_____ - You forgot to configure the TFB.CTL/SOTL.CTL file first.
_____ - The start up batch routine does not tell the game where
the drop file can be obtained and what node is playing.
_____ - You attempted to alter the key.dat file without obtaining
the correct key code from me directly.
_____ - You are running a fossil but forgot to configure the
CTL file to show that you are using a fossil and at what
speed you have locked the port.
----- - You have not tried to change to a different drop file format
to see if that might be the problem.
----- - You do NOT have ANSI.SYS installed.
----- - You do NOT have ALL the game files in the same directory?
3. OK, I have not done anything wrong based on the above. What do I
do now? If it is a game problem fill out the bugrpt.frm completely
and then package it up with any error logs which were generated and
transmit it to me via fido (1:391/3010) or log onto my BBS and upload
it to me. Use the first 8 letters (or less) to name the package. For
example DALTON.ZIP would be the name of my compressed package containing
the BUGRPT.FRM and any error logs which I might submit. Please do not
expect me to solve the problem IF I do not get these things!
