Falcon's Honor Last Update: 05/17/96
Sysop Documentation
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
Hello, Sysop!
Just what IS Falcon's Honor?
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
An interactive role playing adventure, Falcon's Honor is set in a fantasy
world in medieval times. The player's goal is to win honors from as many
families as possible, and the routes to do this are extensive. Simple by
design, the game is geared to players who enjoy the atmosphere and style
of role playing games.
FH is a simple to play and learn game. We have tried to make FH as
simple to install and maintain as possible, and it requires little
maintainence by the sysop. We hope you choose to run and enjoy this
game! Thanks!

Upgrading from an older version of Falcon's Honor
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
Just UNARJ the FH?????.ARJ file and run UNPACK.BAT. Your old game will
still work (most cases), but sometimes certain features of the new game may
not work correctly. A RESET will enable all features of the new version to
work, but until then you can still continue your old game. Also, read
UPGRADE.DOC for information on special changes for upgrades.
Installing a new copy of Falcon's Honor
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
Welcome to Falcon's Honor. We've attempted to make installing all of our
games as simple as possible...
Here are the steps:
1. Type UNPACK to unpack all of FH's game files into their proper
directories
2. Type INSTALL FH to set up the doorfile information and create a
batch file.
The doorfile information allows FH to interpret the doorfile
created by the BBS every time it runs a door. Currently there
is support for RBBS, GAP, WWIV, Wildcat, GT Power, PCBoard,
and Spitfire door files.
The corresponding filenames are DORINFO1.DEF, DOOR.SYS, CHAIN.TXT,
CALLINFO.BBS, GTUSER.BBS, PCBOARD.SYS, and SFDOORS.DAT. If you need
another format, read SRDOOR.DOC.
It explains the options:
■ Write a replacement for SRDOOR that handles your door format.
■ Insert a door file converter program before SRDOOR.
■ Send us your door file format and specify which lines contain:
» Name (First AND Last, or Entire)
» COM port number
» baud rate
» IBM graphics characters enabled? (optional information)
» ANSI enabled? (optional information)
» Number of lines on the screen (optional information)
» Time limit (in minutes) (optional information)
3. Install the door to run the batch file (FH.BAT) from the BBS.
(See your BBS manual if you do not know how to do this.)
4. RESET the game with "FH RESET". *** VERY IMPORTANT ***
5. You may wish to view the RESOURCE.DOC file for information on
customizing or modifying your game setup.
6. In the main Falcon's Honor directory, there is a file FHBBS.ANS. It is
provided for you to use in advertising the game on your BBS if you
wish. Also, please make the archive of this game available in your
file area if possible. Thank you!
7. If you are having troubles, check DOCS\Q&A.TXT.
8. After Installation, you can remove the following files, as they
are unnecessary for game play:
INSTALL.CFG
INSTALL.EXE
UNPACK.BAT
UPGRADE.DOC
FHDATA.EXE
WHATS.NEW <── We recommend you view this file if you have time :)
