Land of Merdiqua, v1.0wb
IGM for Seth Able's Legend of the Red Dragon
Sysop Documentation
This IGM will not run as a stand-alone program. It is intended
to enhance and expand Seth Able Robinson's popular Legend of the Red
Dragon BBS door game.
This version should be considered a "wide beta" version. It has
been tested on a few systems and found to be bug-free, but there still may
be problems. Please report any bugs, or any suggestions for improvements
to the author:
John Gibbard
BBS (520) 327-7190
FIdonet 1:300/210
email: gibbard@azstarnet.com
License:
This program is shareware and may be freely distributed if complete
and unaltered; however, registration keys may not be distributed or duplicated.
A limited license is granted to run the shareware version for 30 days, for
evaluation purposes. After that, a registration of $8 per BBS site is
expected. Please see the registration section in this document for more
details.
To use this program, registered or not, you must agree that there
is no warranty, either express or implied, nor will the author be liable
for any damages that may occur from its use. Use it at your own risk.
Installation:
It couldn't be easier. Just copy MERDIQUA.EXE into your LORD
directory and run it, without any command line parameters. Select
(I)nstall from the menu, and it will install itself. Merdiqua takes all
of the information it needs from the LORD files, and requires no other
setup.
If you have problems with it and want to remove it, run it again
without any parameters, select (R)emove, and it will remove itself from
your LORD game.
Everything is automatic, right down to including detection of a
fossil and non-standard IRQs and whether or not you run LORD in clean mode.
Suitability:
If LORD is running in clean mode, this IGM should be suitable for
children of all ages (of course, that is always subjective - check it out
for yourself.)
If not, use Simpson's Rule - that is, if you let your children
watch the Simpson's (tm), they'll probably be OK playing this game.
Why register?
Why not? It's only 8 bucks.
Registration will get you a unique key that will do away with the
nag screen and open up the boat shop. With a boat, your players can get
onto the high seas and do battle with the most aggressive sea creatures.
Your registration key will work with future minor versions; that
is, if you register v1.0, it will work for v1.3.
A minor version will generally be released for things like bug
fixes, minor implementation suggestions, and improved graphics.
A major version will generally be released when something major
is done, like a whole new realm is added, or the program is totally
rewritten. There may be a charge to upgrade to a new major version,
but it will be less than the registration cost.
If you would like to register this program, please print out this
form and send it along with $8 US funds to:
John Gibbard
BBS Doors Registration
4702 E. Broadway Blvd, Suite 110-207
Tucson, Arizona 85711
If you don't have a printer available, a handwritten form is OK,
but please print carefully. If your BBS name is not correct, your reg
key won't work.
