Special clarification of the Angelic Power "Insist"
1. You can only insist human enemies. Human enemies include
medium and heavy soldiers. You cannot insist any demons or
robotic creatures.
2. You can only insist one person at a time.
3. Insist ends after a few seconds or when the insisted
person dies.
4. An insisted person, let's call him Jimmy, will begin
attacking the first enemy he sees. If Jimmy does not see
any enemies he will move towards you. Also, if Jimmy is not
attacking anyone, you can push him and he will take a few
steps in the direction he is pushed.
5. Jimmy and Jarvis are soldiers. You insist Jimmy and he
begins fighting Jarvis. Then insist ends.
Question: Why are Jimmy and Jarvis still fighting?
Answer: When insist ends, Jimmy no longer has any desire to
attack his buddy Jarvis. However, Jarvis can't tell that
Jimmy is not insisted anymore and is still attacking Jimmy.
Accordingly, Jimmy defends himself by firing back.
Special clarification of the Angelic Power "Resurrect"
1. You can only resurrect human enemies who are dead and
"whole". Human enemies include medium and heavy soldiers.
You cannot resurrect any demons or robotic creatures. A
dead person is "whole" when no part of his body has been
blown off. Sometimes a dead person will appear whole when,
upon closer examination, you can see that his forearm or
head has been blown off. These people with missing limbs
cannot be resurrected.
2. You can only resurrect a person once. If you resurrect
Lenny and then he dies, you will not be able to resurrect
Lenny again.
3. Resurrect has a short range. You must stand on or next
to the person you wish to resurrect.
4. When a person is resurrected, he will act as if he were
insisted. This will not "wear off"; he will act insisted
until he dies.

4) ALT-TAB Key Use and other Keyboard Information
While playing Requiem: Avenging Angel, you SHOULD NOT
try to switch to another application by using ALT-TAB
because the demo may stop working and you might have
to reboot your computer. Also, we recommend that you
exit all other applications when playing the demo.
...........................................
5) Video Card And Other Hardware Drivers / DirectX
Requiem: Avenging Angel Demo supports the following 3D
accelerator cards:
Voodoo Banshee
Voodoo 1
Voodoo 2
Riva TNT (see "Creative(R) RIVA TNT(TM)
compatibility" below)
Riva 128
Riva 128zx
Matrox G200
Permedia 2
ATI Rage 128
ATI Rage II+
ATI Rage Pro (see "ATI RAGE(TM) PRO compatibility"
below)
3Dfx and DirectX 6.1 compatibility
If your display appears overly dark while employing D3D and
3Dfx, it may be a result of incompatibility between 3Dfx /
D3D and DirectX 6.1. To correct this: a) quit the game if
you are playing it. b) right-click on the desktop, and
select "Properties" from the menu that appears. c) select
the tab that corresponds to your particular accelerator
card. d) adjust the brightness by manually sliding the
'Gamma Correction' slidebars to the desired level (it is
recommended to link the slidebars).
Although D3D card manufacturers have stated that they've
optimized their drivers to deliver the fastest performance
possible, occasional performance problems continue to be
observed when running Requiem: Avenging Angel on certain
D3D accelerator cards. Should you experience such
problems, we recommend upgrading to a faster processor,
such as a Pentium II or a processor rated at 300 mHz or
faster. Should problems persist, we recommend running the
game in software mode only.
Creative(R) RIVA TNT(TM) compatibility
If you want to use a Creative RIVA TNT 3D accelerator, you
should download the latest "Detonator" software. Go to
http://www.nvidia.com/ . Select "End Users" and then
select "Drivers" to get the latest drivers for your hard-
ware.
ATI RAGE(TM) PRO compatibility
Currently, existing ATI RAGE PRO drivers are not compatible
with Requiem: Avenging Angel. If you want to use an ATI
RAGE PRO 3D accelerator, you should first try using the
latest drivers from ATI Technologies Inc. Their drivers
website is:
http://support.atitech.ca/drivers/drivers.html
