You can only insist human enemies. Human enemies include medium and heavy soldiers. You cannot insist any demons or robotic creatures. 2. You can only insist one person at a time. 3. Insist ends after a few seconds or when the insisted person dies. 4. An insisted person, let's call him Jimmy, will begin attacking the first enemy he sees. If Jimmy does not see any enemies he will move towards you. Also, if Jimmy is not attacking anyone, you can push him and he will take a few steps in the direction he is pushed. 5. Jimmy and Jarvis are soldiers. You insist Jimmy and he begins fighting Jarvis. Then insist ends. Question: Why are Jimmy and Jarvis still fighting? Answer: When insist ends, Jimmy no longer has any desire to attack his buddy Jarvis. However, Jarvis can't tell that Jimmy is not insisted anymore and is still attacking Jimmy. Accordingly, Jimmy defends himself by firing back. Special clarification of the Angelic Power "Resurrect" 1. You can only resurrect human enemies who are dead and "whole". Human enemies include medium and heavy soldiers. You cannot resurrect any demons or robotic creatures. A dead person is "whole" when no part of his body has been blown off. Sometimes a dead person will appear whole when, upon closer examination, you can see that his forearm or head has been blown off. These people with missing limbs cannot be resurrected. 2. You can only resurrect a person once. If you resurrect Lenny and then he dies, you will not be able to resurrect Lenny again. 3. Resurrect has a short range. You must stand on or next to the person you wish to resurrect. 4. When a person is resurrected, he will act as if he were insisted. This will not "wear off"; he will act insisted until he dies. ........................................... 4) ALT-TAB Key Use and other Keyboard Information While playing Requiem: Avenging Angel, you SHOULD NOT try to switch to another application by using ALT-TAB because the demo may stop working and you might have to reboot your computer. Also, we recommend that you exit all other applications when playing the demo. ........................................... 5) Video Card And Other Hardware Drivers / DirectX Requiem: Avenging Angel Demo supports the following 3D accelerator cards: Voodoo Banshee Voodoo 1 Voodoo 2 Riva TNT (see "Creative(R) RIVA TNT(TM) compatibility" below) Riva 128 Riva 128zx Matrox G200 Permedia 2 ATI Rage 128 ATI Rage II+ ATI Rage Pro (see "ATI RAGE(TM) PRO compatibility" below) 3Dfx and DirectX 6.1 compatibility If your display appears overly dark while employing D3D and 3Dfx, it may be a result of incompatibility between 3Dfx / D3D and DirectX 6.1. To correct this: a) quit the game if you are playing it. b) right-click on the desktop, and select "Properties" from the menu that appears. c) select the tab that corresponds to your particular accelerator card. d) adjust the brightness by manually sliding the 'Gamma Correction' slidebars to the desired level (it is recommended to link the slidebars). Although D3D card manufacturers have stated that they've optimized their drivers to deliver the fastest performance possible, occasional performance problems continue to be observed when running Requiem: Avenging Angel on certain D3D accelerator cards. Should you experience such problems, we recommend upgrading to a faster processor, such as a Pentium II or a processor rated at 300 mHz or faster. Should problems persist, we recommend running the game in software mode only. Creative(R) RIVA TNT(TM) compatibility If you want to use a Creative RIVA TNT 3D accelerator, you should download the latest "Detonator" software. Go to http://www.nvidia.com/ . Select "End Users" and then select "Drivers" to get the latest drivers for your hard- ware. ATI RAGE(TM) PRO compatibility Currently, existing ATI RAGE PRO drivers are not compatible with Requiem: Avenging Angel.
