How To Buy?
Glory Zone is shareware. This means that you may try it free of charge. Of course, there are some limitations in unregistered version. As unregistered user you will be able to play only first 8 levels of the game, and none of the settings will be saved. This means that if you redefine the keys, or assign joystick buttons, or make an entry into the hiscore table, or compose a nice playlist, all of that will disappear once you exit the game.

Buying Glory Zone is quick, secure and easy - no additional downloads are required!
(In fact you are buying only a licence/registration code.)

For only $8 (US) you will get your personal licence/registration code for Glory Zone which you should then enter inside the unregistered shareware version of the game by choosing REGISTER from main menu. This will unlock the game so you will be able to play it without restrictions.

To order Glory Zone go to: www.space-ewe.com

VISA, Mastercard, American Express, Discover (Novus) and Eurocard credit cards are accepted. It is also possible to pay with check or money order, but this will cost you additional $2.50 and you will have to wait longer for your registration code.

After your payment is processed, you will receive Glory Zone Receipt with the registration code to the e-mail address that you have provided. If you are paying with credit card you will also get your personal registration code immediately on the screen.

Please, write down your licence/registration code and store it at some safe place, because you won't be able to see it in the registered game. You might need it in the future in case you buy a new computer, or reinstall the Windows.

To complete registration process:

1. start Glory Zone
2. choose REGISTER from main menu
3. type in licence/registration code
4. press return (enter)

When you return to the main menu, "UNREGISTERED" sign at the top of the screen should disappear. If it is still there, you probably didn't enter your registration code correctly. Try to enter it again.

It is recommended that you exit the game upon successful registration, to let the game save its registered status!

Once registered, the game will let you play beyond 8th level. It will also save all game settings, including hiscore table and playlist.

What's New In v1.2?
Glory Zone now has autofire.

Just hold down the fire key. However, at some moments (for example skill levels) you may prefer to fire in the old way because you can probably fire faster than autofire rate which is 4 missiles per second.

All alpha (translucent) textures are exchanged with RGBA textures.

It seems that some notebooks/laptops with older SiS graphics adapters have display drivers with poorly implemented OpenGL.

Improved timing.

On some NT, 2000 or XP systems Glory Zone performed badly. Hopefully, not any more...

Better joystick support.

Now Glory Zone uses DirectInput for joystick handling. Only if there isn't DirectInput it will use Windows joystick support. USB joystick should finally work correctly now.

Some bugs are corrected.

For more details about bugs check out history.

What Was New In v1.1?
There are now 3 levels of difficulty in Glory Zone and each has its own hiscore table.

HARD	This difficulty is actually taken from v1.0. If you are a registered user, hiscore table from v1.0 will become hiscore table of hard difficulty after upgrade to v1.2.
NORMAL	Your ship is about 60% faster and missiles are about 25% faster than in hard.
EASY	Speed is same as in normal, but you have faster (green) engine and upgraded (green) missiles on all your spare ships. However, question marks can still degrade your current missiles and current ship's speed! Also, enemies shoot less, and there are fewer attackers from the fleet.

Hiscore table now displays level number which you've reached.

In hiscore tables, right beside the score, is a number in parenthesis which tells how far did someone get. (N/A means "not available" and is used for initial entries or entries which were done before this feature was added.)

You can now disable joystick on the configuration screen.

Some users experienced troubles because of joystick. Problems would disappear if they disconnected the joystick. To avoid disconnecting until we solve this, "disable joystick" option is added.

If you also cannot navigate the menu either with keyboard or joystick, then you should try to run the game with disabled joystick.

There are now 6 cheat codes available.

Cheat codes can be entered during the gameplay or while the game is paused. (They are not case sensitive.)



lifeplease	gives you an extra life
shieldplease	gives you one shield
speedplease	speeds your ship up
upgradeplease	upgrades your weapon
missilesplease	gives you 3 missiles ability
fillitupplease	total upgrade - 3 shields, faster ship, green missiles, 3 missiles


Cheat codes (except lifeplease) won't work unless your ship is active! When you lose a life wait for a new ship to appear before you enter cheat codes. As mentioned above, you can pause the game (ESC) and then enter cheat codes. This way you can do it in the middle of the battle without the fear that you'll be destroyed.

Some bugs are corrected.

For more details about bugs check out history.

System Requirements
To be able to start Glory Zone you absolutely need:

• Pentium processor or higher (Pentium compatible processors should also do)
• Windows95/NT or higher
• full OpenGL implementation (either in software, or hardware accelerated)

For a reasonable performance you should have:

• Pentium II processor or higher (Celeron will do nicely)
• 3D graphics card with full OpenGL driver
• sound card (DirectX 3 or higher is required for sound)
• joystick or gamepad, although we prefer keyboard :-)

Be sure that you have installed the latest display drivers for your graphics card. Many problems may emerge because of too old display drivers. You will most likely find the latest display drivers at your card's manufacturer website.
If you have Windows95/98, you could also try to install appropriate display drivers with GLSetup.

Check out the list of tested 3D cards, operating systems and processors.
For the latest compatibility list visit www.space-ewe.com.

Voodoo 1/2/Rush owners, please read note for voodoo owners section of this manual.

Deinstallation
To deinstall Glory Zone, from Start menu choose Programs..Glory Zone..Uninstall.

---

Game Objective
In this game you fly through space in a space ship and destroy enemies with missiles. For every enemy ship destroyed you earn some points. When destroyed, some of the enemies leaves objects behind them. Collecting these objects can give you additional points, speed, faster weapon, shield or extra life, but beware of the question marks! As well as give, they can also take some of the upgrades from your ship.

Of course, game objective is to earn as many points as possible.

You get an extra life at 50,000 points, and at every 100,000 points. You can have maximum of seven spare lives. If you have seven spare lives and make for example 500,000 points, you will get 10,000 points instead of a life.

---

Game Objects
There are 11 types of enemies (only 4 in unregistered version), and 9 types of objects for collecting.

Number of points for destroying particular enemy can be found inside the game under GAME OBJECTS. (From main menu go to OPTIONS, and then choose GAME OBJECTS.) First number represents points you score by destroying the enemy while it flies within the fleet. Second number represents points for enemy destroyed when it is out of the fleet, for example attacking.

Some of the enemies are so called chiefs. (Chiefs are marked with a "+" sign in GAME OBJECTS screen.) They are taking other ships along their sides when attacking. They can lead up to four ships to attack, and their value changes accordingly to the number of accompanying ships at the start of the attack. This means that even if you shoot down some of the ships around the chief during the joined attack, the chief will still worth the same. Here are the scores:

• if chief started attack with 1 accompanying ship it is worth 400 points
• 2 ships = 600 points
• 3 ships = 900 points
• 4 ships = 1300 points

Most of the objects that you can collect are well explained in GAME OBJECTS screen, so here we will explain only "three missiles in a row" object and "question mark" object.

At any time you can have only two missiles simultaneously on the screen. You won't be able to fire next missile until one of the missiles hits something, or gets out of the screen. "Three in a row" object gives you ability to have three simultaneous missiles on the screen.

Question mark can do any of the following:

• give you 1000 points
• give you 2000 points
• give you one shield
• speed you up
• give you faster "green" missiles
• give you three simultaneous missiles ability
• give you an extra life
• take one shield
• slow you down
• degrade your weapon to slower one
• take away ability to have three simultaneous missiles

Notice that question mark will never destroy your ship! It can only take a shield away, of course if you have at least one.

---

Game Levels
Game is divided into two types of levels: BATTLE levels, and SKILL levels.

There is total of 32 battle levels, and 8 skill levels in the game (for registered users, of course). When you complete the last level, the game will continue from the first one.

In BATTLE levels enemies are comming in waves and take their places in the fleet. Once all of them have settled, they will attack you, either alone or by following a chief. Sometimes, there are so called "runaways" from incoming waves. If you manage to destroy all of the runaways from a single wave you will get runaway bonus as follows:

• 2 runaways = 500 points
• 3 runaways = 1000 points
• 4 runaways = 2000 points

In SKILL levels you won't be in any kind of danger! Several enemy waves will pass in front of you, and your task is just to destroy as many enemies as you can. If you destroy all of the enemies in some wave you will get special bonus. There can be 8, 10, or 12 enemies in a single wave, and special bonus is 1000, 1500 and 2000 points respectively. Once all of the waves have passed, you will get skill bonus accordingly to the percentage of the enemies shot down. Here are the relations:

• 100% = 10000 points
• 95%-99% = 5000 points
• 90%-94% = 4000 points
• 80%-89% = 3000 points
• 60%-79% = 2000 points
• 40%-59% = 1000 points
• 20%-39% = 500 points
• 0%-19% = 0 points

Every fifth level is a skill level.

Controls
Through the menus you can navigate with keyboard or joystick, but not with mouse.
(If you cannot move through the menus try to run the game with disabled joystick.)

Keyboard navigation is done with arrows, return (or enter, space) and ESC keys.
Joystick navigation is done by pushing (or pressing) the direction, and fire button. Fire button is by default the first button, but it can be changed.

This game does not support the mouse! Please do not try to move your ship or navigate the menu with it.

You can pause current game with ESC.
While in game, either in some menu or playing, you can press F1 to see other ingame shortcut keys.

You control your space ship with three keys.

• LEFT ARROW = move left
• RIGHT ARROW = move right
• CONTROL = fire

You can redefine the keys by choosing OPTIONS...CONTROLLER.
To redefine joystick buttons, press return at the TYPE option. This will switch to the joystick page. If you have joystick with multiple buttons you can assign music player controls to them!

---

MP3 Playlist
Glory Zone has integrated mp3 player. Playlist inside the game can have maximum of 50 entries.

To compose a playlist go to the OPTIONS...SOUND and choose EDIT PLAYLIST.

With left, right (either arrows, or joystick directions) you move from the "file list" over the "menu" to the "playlist". While in file list or playlist, pressing up or down will move you up or down in the list.

If you are in file list, pressing the return (space, joystick fire button) will:

• put the song into the playlist, or
• move you to some subdirectory (or up one level, or root), or
• change the drive

If you are in playlist, pressing the return will:

• remove the song from the playlist

Above the file list and playlist you can find complete name of the song (or subdirectory), and current directory (the directory which is listed in the file list). This is done because in some lower display modes and especially when you are in top view mode, the names of the files can be too long to fit into file/play list.
Recall that even if you like to play in top view mode you can easily (F2) change it to 3D view which is because of the wide display more appropriate for editing playlist.

FILL PLAYLIST will fill the remaining of the playlist from the first song (in alphabetical order) in the file list.

Once you have composed the playlist there is several ways of controling it, but remember, music player controls work only outside the EDIT PLAYLIST:

• you can control it by the function keys (F5-F9)
• you can assign your joystick buttons to music player controls
• you can go to OPTIONS...SOUND and choose MUSIC CONTROL CENTER

To see the function keys assigned to music player press F1 or go to OPTIONS and choose SHORTCUTS.

If mp3 player is skipping some of the songs you put into the playlist, please read this.

Compatibility List
July the 11^th 2001
For the latest compatibility list visit www.space-ewe.com.

If you have some 3D card which is not on our list, and Glory Zone works fine with it, we would be appreciated if you let us know about it, so we can update Glory Zone compatibility list.

Voodoo 1/2/Rush owners please read note for Voodoo owners section of this manual.

Glory Zone has been tested and confirmed to work properly with following 3D cards/chips:

• 3DFX   - Voodoo 2, Voodoo 3 3000, Voodoo 5 5000
• ATI    - Rage128¹, Radeon
• INTEL  - i740², i810
• MATROX - G200, G400
• NVIDIA - Riva128, TNT, GeForce 2
• S3     - Savage 4

¹If you have Win2000 you should make sure that you have the latest drivers installed, because for some ATI cards Win2000 CD does not contain OpenGL driver. If you experience some problems, please visit ATI and read their Win2000 FAQ to determine if OpenGL driver for your card is shipped on Win2000 CD, or if you should download the latest display drivers to get OpenGL properly installed.

²Some problems were reported with i740 in 32bit modes. Display was garbled with color chunks everywhere. In 16bit modes game works fine.

Game has also been tested with Trident 9750.
Since OpenGL driver is not available for this particular 3D card, we used Direct3D wrapper for OpenGL from alt.software and it worked well, considering limitations which this card has.

If your 3D card also doesn't have OpenGL driver available read this for guidelines about installing and using Direct3D wrapper with Glory Zone.

Game has been tested on:

• Windows 95
• Windows 98
• Windows ME
• Windows NT
• Windows 2000
• Windows XP

However, this doesn't mean that every combination of operating system version and 3D card has been tested! It is possible that Glory Zone will have problems with running on some combinations of above mentioned 3D cards and Windows versions.

Game has been tested with:

• INTEL - Pentium, Celeron, Pentium II, Pentium III
• AMD   - K6-2, Athlon

Note For Voodoo Owners
It is likely that you will need to download one additional zip of approximately 50KB to be able to start Glory Zone with Voodoo 1/2. If you get following error while starting Glory Zone: "Could not load OpenGL Utility Library.", please read explanation of a possible solution.

If you have another 3D card installed beside Voodoo 1/2, and want to run the game on it instead of Voodoo 1/2 (which is chosen by default) you can try this workaround.

If you have very poor performance in some display modes you should be aware that:

• Voodoo 1 can accelerate 3D in fullscreen mode only, and it supports 512x384x16 and 640x480x16 display modes.
• Voodoo 2 can accelerate 3D in fullscreen mode only, and it supports 512x384x16, 640x480x16 and 800x600x16 display modes.
• Voodoo 3 supports only 16bit color depth (Voodoo 3 has been tested and confirmed to work)

(Note that Glory Zone does not support 512x384 mode.)

We do not know how will the game behave if you choose some other game display settings.
Anyway, if the game becomes extremely slow, it is probably not hardware accelerated. In that case you can press F12 (fast exit to system), and try it with different settings.

If nothing helped, please read support section of this manual for a proper way to obtain support.

Troubleshooting

• I get the warning which says that OpenGL is not properly installed.
• When I start Glory Zone nothing except the function keys works.
• Game is incredibly slow!
• Game is quite jerky.
• MP3 player is skipping some of the songs I put in the playlist.
• I can't get it work in 1024x768 windowed mode, and my desktop is set to 1024x768.
• I can't get it work in 16 (or 32) bits in windowed mode.
• I get a warning which says that because my desktop is set to 24 (or 15) bit color depth, the game will most likely work with very poor performance in windowed mode. Why?
• I get the following error: "Could not load OpenGL Utility Library."
• My 3D graphics card doesn't have OpenGL driver, but it has some hardware acceleration through Direct3D. Is there a way to make Glory Zone use hardware acceleration on my 3D card?
• I have two 3D cards in my computer, and one of them is Voodoo 2. Glory Zone seems to always choose Voodoo 2. How can I make Glory Zone work with my other 3D card?

---

I get the warning which says that OpenGL is not properly installed.

Try to find the latest display drivers for your 3D card. You will most likely find them at your card's manufacturer website. If you have Windows95/98, you could also try to install appropriate display drivers with GLSetup.

When I start Glory Zone, nothing except the function keys works.

Try to run the game with joystick disabled.

Game is incredibly slow!

If it's so slow that even navigating menus is hard than it has probably ended up in software rendering mode. Press F12 (fast exit to system), and try to run the game with different game display settings.

If you can't get it to work with hardware acceleration in any mode you should check that you have properly installed OpenGL driver.

Try to find the latest display drivers for your 3D card. You will most likely find them at your card's manufacturer website. If you have Windows95/98, you could also try to install appropriate display drivers with GLSetup.

Game is quite jerky.

You can turn on fps display at graphics options to see what frame rate the game achieves.

If the frame rate is above 15fps, game will be more or less playable (jerky, but quite accurate). You probably have some older 3D card, some not so fast processor, some not so nice program running in the background and eating processor's time, or your display drivers are a bit old.

You can turn off nebulas and galaxies. This should speed things up. You could also try to lower the sound quality or not use integrated mp3 player (especially with slower processors).

If the frame rate is below 15fps, game will actualy slow down! Extremely low frame rates (2-3 fps) indicates that game is running in software rendering. Try to run it with different game display settings.

You could also try to find the latest display drivers for your 3D card. You will most likely find them at your card's manufacturer website. If you have Windows95/98, you could also try to install appropriate display drivers with GLSetup.

MP3 player is skipping some of the songs I put in the playlist.

There are several reasons for that:
- mp3 player couldn't recognize the format of the song
- song is either removed or moved to some other directory after it has been put into playlist
- song is on a removable drive or on a CD, and they are not inserted
- mp3 player can't open the song for some other reason

Check out that song paths are correct!

For the first case we are not sure what you should do... Perhaps you can find some mp3 converter with which you will be able to convert song into different format.

Sorry, but BASS sound system is not our product, we are just using it, so we cannot help you much...
Here is what BASS documentation says about mp3 formats:
"Only MPEG 1.0/2.0 layer 3 files are supported. Layers 1 and 2 are not supported."

I can't get it work in 1024x768 windowed mode, and my desktop is set to 1024x768.

1024x768 means that game display is exactly 1024x768 pixels big. Actual window size in windowed mode is bigger because of window title and borders.

Game can be played in windowed mode only if complete window fits into the screen!

If your desktop is set to 1024x768 you can start Glory Zone in 640x480 and 800x600 windowed mode.
If your desktop is set to 800x600 you can start Glory Zone in 640x480 windowed mode.
If your desktop is set to 640x480 you can start Glory Zone only in fullscreen modes.

I can't get it work in 16 (or 32) bits in windowed mode.

In windowed mode game can be started only with color depth that your desktop is set to.

Change desktop settings if you want to play Glory Zone in windowed mode with different color depth.

I get a warning which says that because my desktop is set to 24 (or 15) bit color depth, the game will most likely work with very poor performance in windowed mode. Why?

It's very likely that your 3D card provides hardware accelerated OpenGL only in 16 and 32 bit color depths. Since some cards (Matrox G200 and Intel i740 for example) let you choose other color depths for desktop, Glory Zone ends up in software rendering.

Please change the desktop color depth to 16 (high color) or 32 (true color) and NOT to 15 (32,768 colors) or 24 bits (16,777,216 colors) while playing in windowed mode.

Of course, this doesn't have to be the case with all cards. You can try it and see what happens. If game is so slow that you can't easily navigate menus, press F12 for fast exit to system, and run it with different settings.

I get the following error: "Could not load OpenGL Utility Library."

Most probable is that you have Voodoo 1 or 2, but don't have OpenGL Utility Library for that card installed on your computer.

We don't know if 3dfx has ever released it, but there is another OpenGL Utility Library which can be used instead of 3dfx's one. You can download it at the following link:

http://www.pseudonymz.demon.co.uk/vx3dfxglu.zip

Unzip it to directory where you have installed Glory Zone.
Rename vx3dfxglu.dll to: 3DFXVGLU.DLL

Try to start Glory Zone.

If you don't have Voodoo 1/2 and you still get this error, than you probably don't have properly installed OpenGL on your computer.

vx3dfxglu.dll is based on Mesa 3.0 which is distributed under the L-GPL license. Source code and more information about it can be found here:

http://www.pseudonymz.demon.co.uk/download.html

My 3D graphics card doesn't have OpenGL driver, but it has some hardware acceleration through Direct3D. Is there a way to make Glory Zone use hardware acceleration on my 3D card?

Yes, there is! It can be done with Direct3D wrapper for OpenGL which you can download from the alt.software website (OpenGL section).

Download Direct3D wrapper.
Unzip it to directory where you installed Glory Zone.
Rename altogl.dll to: OPENGL32.DLL
(Do not move, delete or overwrite original opengl32.dll which is located in Windows/System directory!)

Start Glory Zone, and don't expect miracles!

If your card doesn't have linear texture interpolation, you will probably want to turn off nebulas, because they won't look particulary nice.

I have two 3D cards in my computer, and one of them is Voodoo 2. Glory Zone seems to always choose Voodoo 2. How can I make Glory Zone work with my other 3D card?

There is an easy way to fool Glory Zone that Voodoo card is not installed in your computer.

Start Windows Explorer and go to directory where you installed Glory Zone.
Click the right mouse button and choose New..Text Document.
Name it: GLIDE2X.DLL
Confirm a filename extension change.

You should have GLIDE2X.DLL with size of 0KB in directory where you installed Glory Zone.
(Do not move, delete or overwrite original glide2x.dll which is located in Windows/System directory! If you do, you won't be able to run games on Voodoo anymore!)

Start Glory Zone.
If you have properly installed OpenGL driver for your other 3D card the game should now choose your other card instead of Voodoo 2.

Support And Bug Reporting
Before you ask for a support please read the manual carefully, especially troubleshooting and note for Voodoo owners sections, because it is possible that answer to your problem is there. Also, be sure that you have installed the latest display drivers for your graphics card. Many problems may emerge because of too old display drivers. You will most likely find the latest display drivers at your card's manufacturer website.
If you have Windows95/98, you could also try to install appropriate display drivers with GLSetup.

It's also possible that after a while some frequently asked questions will be answered, or even a new version of Glory Zone released on our home page, so please visit it first.

If you still need support you can send an e-mail to: support@space-ewe.com.
In the subject line you should write name and version of the game, for example: Glory Zone v1.2
First couple of lines of the message should be your name and your personal registration code (or "unregistered").
After that you should write short description of your computer: version of Windows, processor type and frequency, amount of memory, graphics card type, amount of video memory...
And finaly, ask a question!

To report a bug write to: support@space-ewe.com.
Subject should be name and version of the game, for example: Glory Zone v1.2
Message should contain detailed system info: version of Windows, processor type and frequency, amount of memory, graphics card type, amount of video memory, version of display drivers installed, sound card type, joystick type, hard disk type and size, notes about some other installed hardware, special notes (for example double monitor system) etc.
After your system info try to explain what is the problem and how it can be reproduced (if you know).

We appreciate your help in finding and cleaning possible bugs!
