- Details....: Do you have the cool new doom clone called "Fears" for

- What to Do.. :
- --------------
-
- 1) First, create a drawer for Fears (e.g work:games/fears) and copy all
- the above files into the drawer.
- 2) Load the util TrackDos V1.03. You need this to make a disk image (ie
- to dump a non-dos disk to a file). I'm afraid I don't have docs for it,
- but heres what to do...
-
- o Click on "Trackdisk to DOS"
- o Fill in the blank spaces as follows...
- Disk Read Offset : -1
- Disk Read Length : -1
- Save path/file : ram:FearsDisk
- Read from Device : df0:
- o Insert your Fears disk.
- o Click on OK
- o A disk image will be made.
- o Once disk access has stopped, copy the file "FearsDisk" which
- you will now find in your ram disk, to the "Fears" drawer on
- your harddisk.
-
- 3) Once the disk image has been made, double click on the Fears icon and
- the game will run...

- NOTES::
- -------
- This installer copies the game disk to fast ram and then loads data from
- ram, hence the need for 2 or 4 meg of fast. I DID try to make a version
- for 2mb amigas, but iit kept bombing. If you want the source so you can
- try for yourself, get in touch. I have not tested this installer with only
- 2mb of fast ram, but I guess it will work :)
-
- If you have a later version of TrackDos, or the docs file, add them to this
- archive.
-
- This installer patch has been written for the Hoodlum version of the game.
- At the time of release the original (uncracked) version is not available.
- When it becomes available I will buy it and update this installer
- accordingly. Remember you MUST buy the original of this cool game - keep
- the Amiga alive....!
