Those upgrading from version 1.0 to 1.1 need only copy the new KINGDOM.EXE
over the old copy.
To upgrade Kingdom from Version 1.0 Beta to Version 1.0 (proper) do the
following:
1) Copy KINGDOM.EXE, WIZARD.TXT, INSTRUCT.KNG, and KING_UP.EXE into your
Kingdom directory.
2) Run KING_UP.EXE. This program will update your SCOREDAT.KNG file to reflect
the new file structure. Using this program will allow you to keep all the
current high scores. All high score dates will be set to the date on which
you run KING_UP. Once this process is done you may delete KING_UP.EXE as
you will no longer need it.
3) A line has been added to the config file. Below are examples of the old
and new formats. Note the new fossile parameter on line 7 of the new
config, pushing the registration number parameter down one from the old
config format.
4) Line 3 of the config has been altered. You must now include the actual file
name of the door drop file. For example, instead of just the path
(C:\BBS) you must now also include the file name (C:\BBS\DORINFO1.DEF)
5) I strongly suggest you skim the SYSOP.KNG documentation. Much information
has been added. At least take a look at the bottem of the file for a
listing of all Fixes, changes, and additions!
6) That's it, your upgraded. I hope you enjoy the new version. Keep those
suggestions and questions coming! They are wonderful. I can be reached
via net-mail at 1:280/71 or in the Fido DOORWARE, DOORGAMES, and
ON_LINE_GAMES conferances.
