Klik & Play Updater
*******************
This disk will update a UK version of Klik & Play. The version of Klik & Play must be
stored on a hard disk for the updater to work.
CD Owners
*********
If you have the CD version of Klik & Play you must have it installed as either
"Normal" or "Full" installation. So if it's currently installed as "Minimal" you
will have to first re-run the set-up program and re-install before using this
updater. Unfortunately it's impossible for the updater to update and change a
CD Rom.
Before updating
***************
Make sure you don't have more copies of "KNPS.DLL" and "KNPG.DLL" on your hard disk.
They should only exist in the "Windows" or "Windows\System" directories. If you do
locate more copies, delete them and then run the updater.
How to Update
*************
1. Boot your PC in the normal way.
2. Load Windows.
3. Select "Run" from the Windows Program Manager "File" menu.
4. Type in: A:update.exe
5. You'll now be presented with the updater main screen.
6. Click OK to update or Cancel to quit.
7. The Updater will quickly update your copy of Klik & Play. The files updated are:
Klik & Play directory
---------------------
KNP.EXE
KNPRES.DLL
KNPSA.BIN
KNPSAS.BIN
KNPRO.DLL (Developer & Shareware versions only)
KNPSAD.BIN (Developer & Shareware versions only)
Windows[\system] directory
--------------------------
KNPS.DLL
KNPG.DLL
What are the changes?
*********************
Since the release of Klik & Play a number of small problems have been reported.
We've cleaned up Klik & Play and sorted out these problems.
An option has been added to allow games to be run speed-independant. This means that
games run on fast PC will run at the same speed on a slow PC. It does this by updating
the screen less frequently. To activate this feature, add a static active object to
every level that you want running this way. It's best to position the object outside
of the visible playfield. And you must name the object "Machine Independant On" - do
this using the Edit name and icon option.
