- _FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS_
- ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
- Q: Is the jumping made easier in the registered version?
- A: No. There is no difference in the two versions when it comes to
- jumping. It would be shear extortion to make jumping more difficult
- in the shareware version.
-
- Q: Where can change the setup so that I don't have to watch the computer
- jumpers' results running in the top right corner?
- A: You can't. This is because the computer jumpers actually jump in the
- hills and it takes a little bit of calculations for each one to make
- it down the hill, especially with older PCs.
-
- Q: If I register the current version will I also recieve registered
- versions of the future versions for free? In other words,
- is registering SJ3 a lifelong registration?
- A: I'm sorry no. It would be an enourmous task to send out new registered
- versions to all registered users every time I release a new version.
- _When you register SJ2 you only register the current version._
- There will most likely be some kind of discount for already registered
- users. That is if there even will be future versions in the first place...
-
- Q: I jumped a hillrecord on my first jump, but still I was in 5th place
- after the first round. How can that be?
- A: The hillrecords are resetted to certain default values when you start
- SJ3 for the first time, so it'll take some jumping for them find high
- levels. The type of landing you've used (telemark or two-footed) or
- the style points in general have quite a big effect on your scoring,
- so it's possible to be 5th even if you've jumped a new hillrecord.
-
- Q: Can I draw new hills or backgrounds?
- A: Yes! Please read the MANUAL.TXT under The Hill Maker section.
-
- Q: I have an older PC and it feels like the game is not running 100%
- smoothly. What's wrong?
- A: You can have a little effect by changing the Graphics Detail item in
- the Setup Menu -> General Options to "Low". This disables the snow
- effect and some other minor details which may slow jumping down.
-
- Q: What programming language did you use with SJ3?
- A: SJ3 is made with Borland Pascal 7.0. It's an easy, but effective language
- especially with the use of inline-assembler.
-
- Q: Have you done any other computer games?
- A: Yes. I've done some other games in the past, but nothing really worth
- mentioning or seeing.
-
- Q: Where can I get older version of Ski Jump International?
- A: There are some old versions available for download at the official SJ2
- homepage at the Download Area. Only the versions 1.5, 1.62, 1.7, 1.71
- (all Finnish), 2.0 and 2.1 are available since these are the only versions
- that have been officially released.
