REVISION HISTORY
v0.91e(11/09/01)
* Added optional rules like 301game and Double In/Out.
* Added a new replay mode.
* Adjusted game difficulty to some extent. You may feel this
version is a bit more hard than the previous one. If so,
disabling "Double Out" optional rule may be your help.
* The computer player now throws his darts at some intervals.
The more skillful dart he is going to throw, the longer the
interval is.
For example, the computer throws a dart carefully (after some
longer interval time than usual) when the dart is likely to be
a finish.
(Depress right button of the mouse to skip this interval,
if you feel this effect lengthy.)
* Some of options of the previous version are disused now.
They are: "Game difficulty equivalent to v0.5x", "Shading" and
"Texture mapping."
And the default value of "Bilinear Filtering" is changed to
"enabled" now.
* ZZ-Darts now uses Win32 registry to save option settings.
* Revised graphic data.
* Added new HTML-format playing instruction.
* The object code gets bloated greatly in its size. It's mostly
because of newly using another library (or "STL" if you know).
* "No installer" version no longer exists. V0.91e is distributed
always with an installer and an uninstaller.
v0.60ei (11/24/00)
* provides an installer and an uninstaller. No other functions are
changed yet from 0.60e (Thanks to Inno Setup
http://www.innosetup.com/).
v0.60e (08/19/99)
* Added some options("Player's view", "Game difficulty equivalent to
v0.5x" and "Bilinear filtering").
v0.54e (01/16/99)
* Sorted out some unwelcome behaviour that may occur with certain
display
drivers.
v0.53e (01/06/99)
* Fixed a bug calling older version of APIs of WINNLS.
v0.52e (12/15/98)
* Some changes on this document.
* Altering some error messages.
v0.51e (12/01/98)
* 1st English version.
