The enclosed program will patch v1.0 REGISTERED Balls of Steel to v1.1 REGISTERED Balls
of Steel.
The enclosed patchw32.dll must be extracted to the same directory as the bossw11p.exe
file is, or the patch program will not work correctly. This DLL is only needed for
the patch program itself, after you've successfully run the patch, you may delete this
DLL.
What's new/fixed in v1.1 of Balls of Steel:
-------------------------------------------
- key selection in menu for flipper, plunger, and nudge
- fix to permit extra ball awarding in Arcade mode
- fix for Duke extra ball dotpanel display sequencing
- fix to prevent Enter skipping highscore entry until highscore title shown
- increased maximum capping and adjustment for Powerball enabling
- fix for 2-ball jackpot totalling in Firestorm
- video driver update for problems with Matrox Mystique and Riva cards
- fix for problems with cards based on Rendition chips
- fix for problems using Video Setup button after installation
- removed screen capture key
- fix to allow single-screen view only on video cards less than 1Mb
- automatic resetting of display profile if video options changed in menu
An extra utility is now included that will allow you to reprofile your video card should you run into trouble, or change video drivers, etc. There is an icon for this in your Balls of Steel Program Group in the Win95 Start Menu. This program cannot be run from inside the game. This utility is included in both the DEMO and full versions of the game.
NOTE: If you used the patch program to upgrade from v1.0 to v1.1, the icon for this program will not be in your group, but the program will be in your game directory.
