Welcome
=======
This demo includes a fully playable level. The final game is due for release
this summer. I know that you don't want to spend hours reading the README so
the instructions here are very brief.
Machine Hunter is a basically a shoot-em-up. It is not another DOOM clone
but shows the 3D environment from above. This allows us to provide a fully
directional firing system so you can shoot enemies all around you.
You progress through the game by taking over enemy robots. As you take over
a robot you inherit his weapons and abilities. This gives you a vast array of
weapons each of which can be powered up with special pickups.
A quick guide to installation and controls follows...
Running Machine Hunter
======================
Machine Hunter requires DirectX to be installed on your machine. To
keep the size of the download to a miniumum we have not included the
drivers in the install program.
If you do not have DirectX drivers installed on your machine, the game
will still run but only in window form and without sound.
You can obtain the latest DirectX drivers from Microsoft at
http://www.microsoft.com/MEDIADEV/DOWNLOAD/ISDK.HTM
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/pr/win95osr.htm
The following assumes you have used MACHINST -D to install.
From Windows 95, move to the MACHINST directory and double click
on MACHHUNT.EXE.
Player Controls
===============
The cursor keys provide directional movement for the player
The numeric keypad provides 8 directional firing for the player
Numeric keypad 0 provides a strafe key.
The control key will fire forward
The W key allows selection of weapon
Space will fire secondary weapons
Return acts as a start button and provide PAUSE in game
TAB will bring up a 3D Map of the level
ALT-F4 will quit the program.

ALT alone when full screen will return the game to a window.
The in game menu (accessed by the pause (RETURN) key provides different
camera options to the player and allows the player to turn off shading
and colour addition to speed up the game on slower machines.
Sound volumes should be set using the Windows 95 mixer.
