-
- This is the *RELEASE* update to v1.1 for Renegade: Battle For Jacob's Star
-
- The only difference between this and the test update is a few extra lines in
- this readme file explaining the changes to the game.
-
- PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING NOTE BEFORE PROCEDING!!
- ------------------------------------------
- NOTE:
- This update will only will only work for the 60 meg install. This is due to
- the fact that we cannot modify files that reside on the CD-ROM, they must be
- copied to the Hard Drive first, which is what the 60 MB install does.
-
- If you have one of the smaller installations on your hard drive, you can
- INSTALL the 60 MB version OVER your current game, then apply the patch.
- Savegames should be unaffected.
-
- Please do NOT ask if this update can be used with any of the smaller
- installs. The answer is "NO".
- ------------------------------------------
-
- To Install this update
-
- 1) Download this file (BJS60V11.EXE)
-
- 2) Type the name of the file (BJS60V11.EXE) to extract the files
- (PATCH.EXE, PATCH.RTP, and README11.TXT)
-
- 3) Copy the files (PATCH.EXE, PATCH.RTP, and README11.TXT) to your
- Renegade directory (default is c:\renegade)
-
- 4) Install the 60MB version of the game over your current 15, 30, or 50 MB
- install. This is a necessary step. Failure to do this, will cause this
- patch to fail.
-
- 5) Type PATCH to update the game.
-
- 6) Type SVIEW README11.TXT to see the changes in v1.1
-
- If you have any problems with this update, please contact SSI Technical
- Support for assistance. Or send e-mail to StratSim
-
-
- Corrections in v1.1
-
- 1) Added Clean.exe which looks for and deletes files in your game directory
- which should not be there (I.E. Old replay files). These files will not
- cause a problem with the game, they simply take up unnecessary disk space.
-
- 2) The game will now check to make sure you have enough free disk space to
- run the game. In v1.0, the game would simply crash if there was not enough
- free disk space at startup.
-
- 3) Corrected problem with mouse not reaching below 2/3 of the screen. (Since
- we could never duplicate this problem in-house, we can only speculate as to
- the effectiveness of this correction. Please contact Tech Support at
- 1-408-737-6850 or on any of the online services -CompuServe (76711,250),
- GEnie (SSI.SUPPORT), America Online (StratSim) on which we support our
- products if you are still experiencing this problem.
-
- 4) Fixed Alien animation in command console
-
- 5) Corrected crash which resulted sometimes when a players ship was heavily
- damaged during combat (about to explode).
-
- 6) A stray pointer was corrected. This was not linked to any one crash, but
- was corrected in this version (1.1).
