Thank you for taking the time to download Quark. Please make sure that all of the necessary files are in your Quark folder. They are:
1.) The "Quark v1.0.0" application
2.) "QuarkData1"
3.) "QuarkData2"
4.) "QuarkData3"
5.) "QuarkData4"
6.) "Hints, Tips, and Strategies"
7.) Goes without saying, but "READ ME"
Quark will NOT function without the proper data files. If you plan to upload Quark or give it to a friend, you MUST include all of the files listed above.
**System Requirements**
In order to play Quark, your system will have to meet the following requirements:
1. System 7.0+
2. 3100K of free RAM
3. Sound Manager 3.0+
4. Approximately 1M of free hard drive space
5. 68020+ µP
Quark will run a system check on startup in order to determine if your system meets the minimum requirements. Although the check is thorough, unforeseen problems may arise. If this happens, contact me at the address below. Be sure to include a complete description of your system, as well as a detailed account of where and when, during game play, your problem occurred.
Quark runs acceptably fast on a 68020 µP, although some users may experience a slight slow down when there are too many objects on the screen. µP speeds of 30+MHz are recommended.
Finally, Quark draws directly to screen in order provide faster game play. If you have had problems with this in the past, Quark may not run correctly on your system.
