1. INSTALLING THE MODE DEFINITION FILE
--------------------------------------
This ANKH demo needs a special screen mode (640x400) to run. You have to add
this screen mode to your mode definition file (MDF). This is done as follows:
1) Locate your mode definition file.
It is usually found on your harddisc at:
!Boot.Resources.Configure.Monitor.Acorn ...
You'll find several files here. If you are not sure about the right one,
click on the monitor icon on the right corner of your icon bar. You'll find
the name of your file on top of the appearing window.
2) Adding the ANKH mode to your MDF
Drag the ANKH mode file into a text editor (!Edit, !StrongEd, !Zap...).
(You find this file inside !Ankh (called ANKHMODE1) )
Now drag your MDF into the editor too.
Now use the cut and paste function to paste the ANKH mode into your MDF.
CAUTION: Make sure that the '#End' is still at the end of your MDF. If the
'#End' is located BEFORE the new ANKH mode, it will not work.
3) Save the MDF.
4) If your monitor has problems with ANKHMODE1 then delete the ANKH mode from
your MDF and try another file (ANKHMODE2 or ANKHMODE3).
2. NO MUSIC?
------------
As you might have noticed, there is no music. This is because the full version
of ANKH comes with large CD tracks. These add a lot of atmosphere to the game.
So if you'd like to hear some groovy high quality CD music, simply call
(+44) 01925 755 043 -and some friendly people will sort out that little
problem.

GENERAL TIPS
Always look at the items you're carrying, the descriptions might help you.
To simply USE an item without combining, just click 'use' and doubleclick the
object.
THE FIRST STEPS
Go to the Nile, pick up a green leaf (move the pointer over the plants), give
it to the father.
GETTING THE APRON
Talk to the stuff trader, get his scissors,
go to the Nile, use the scissors with the moist stone.
Give the scissors back to the trader.
CROSSING THE NILE
Get silver coin from terrorists, give to ferryman
->Give burger to terrorists
GETTING THE BURGER
Well, that's not very easy in the full game, but for the demo we've simply
given you the burger right at the beginning...
