- INSTALLATION
- ============================================================================
-
- Run CKDEMO.EXE and select a folder where the setup files can be
- extracted to. Note, when the Confirmed Kill Demo is installed,
- you can delete these files.
-
- Setup.exe will launch and run the Confirmed Kill Demo installation program.
-
- Updates to this demo will be downloaded to your computer when you successfully
- log into the Confirmed Kill area on Mplayer.
-
- ck ftp sites. You can uninstall CK by going to your Control Panel
- and selecting Add/Remove programs and clicking on CK. If this does
- not work, manually delete the folder. I only use the registry for
- Installshield so it knows where CK was installed. CK does not
- use the Registry and therefore, advanced users should be able
- to delete any lingering reference in add/remove programs.
-
- Note there is an extremely limited Single Player game but this Demo
- is really set up to be used online on Mplayer.

-
- CONTROL and NUMPAD keys:
- CONTROL 1 and 3 trim the rudder/yaw
- CONTROL 4 and 6 trim the ailerons/roll
- CONTROL 2 and 8 trim the elevators/pitch.
-
- There will be an on-screen indicator that will pop-up so you can dial in
- the pitch prior to takeoff and re-tune while in-flight. This feature
- does not store settings in the demo.
-
- Chat Text: Hitting X will cycle text messages from 4 lines, several lines,
- and OFF.
-
- Aircraft: In the demo, there are two available Pacific Theater aircraft: F4U-1D Corsair
- and the A6M-2 Zero.
-
- Game info: You will fly over a generic island map in a Free for all game:
- 20 minutes or 10 air kills.
-
- Bailouts. SHIFT-J is be the bail-out key. The C key pulls the
