AoW can be installed on a hard drive - just make sure that the files:
diskfont.library mathtrans.library
are in the libs: drawer, and that you've copied the ``Spacey" font to the fonts: drawer. The directory that you put the game in must have the name ``px:" assigned to it. In other words, if the game is in ``dh1:Games/AoW", you should put:
assign px: dh1:Games/AoW
in your startup-sequence.
The mission directories should be in the same dir as the game, ie. ``px:". The default missions also require that the ``Pics" drawer and the ``Snd" drawer, and their contents, are present in ``px:" also.
The game is much nicer installed on a hard drive (isn't everything?). As it is so extendable, a fair amount of disk access is inevitable. However, there is no disk access during a game so the actual gameplay speed is identical on both floppy and hard drive systems.
To summarise then: the necessary files are as follows.
| libs:diskfont.library |
| mathtrans.library |
| fonts:Spacey/7 |
| Spacey.font |
| px:Pics/GameTiles |
| EscapeTiles |
| GameBack.iff |
| WeaponBack.iff |
| Weapons.1 |
| Snd/Samples.1 |
| Act_Of_War |
| Informant/Everything |
| Escape/Everything |
| Terminator!/Everything |
