- --- SUPERFROG Hard Disk Installer ---
-
- This installer requires the ORIGINAL disks from Superfrog (there are 3)
-
- It will NOT work for cracked versions of Superfrog.
-
- The HD-Patched game will need about 5Mb of memory.
- Thanks to a user who had problems with 1MB Chip and 4MB Fast, I rewrote
- the memory routines and it now works (but you cannot quit or save high scores).
-
- It should work on ALL Kickstarts and ALL CPUs (up to '060).
- Report me any bugs you'll find.
-
- Note: I created and tested this package with a A1200/060/50 16Mb, so there should
- be no problems for all 680x0 CPUs (caches,chipset...). It degrades display properly
- so Multiscan users won't have any sprite or screen problem.
- All my installers are now fixed for A3000/A4000 users (thanks Robert :-) )
- However, I think some MMU softkicked amigas will not be able to run the patch
- properly. I can't do the impossible, sorry...
-
-
- When the disks are copied during installation, the pointer freezes. That's
- normal cause the game uses a custom trackload routine (copy-protection), and
- it does not easily multitask. No checks are done to see if you swapped the disks
- or not.
-
- FEATURES:
-
- - Full HD Install of the game
- - Convenient install script provided (adapted from Bert Jahn's ones)
- - Full use of fast memory, improved for V1.1. Now only needs less than 4MB of fast memory.
- - Fully 680x0 compatible without modifications
- - Load/Save Hi-Scores now work with hard drive or floppy on request (NOOSSWAP tooltype)
- - F10 key allows you to quit the game at any time (5MB of fast required).
- - Introduction HD installed too
-
- WARNING:
-
- - You have to load the high scores by the LOAD SCORES option. This is not done at startup.
- - Do NOT use a copyback disk cache on your games partition. This could be harmful if you reboot
- the computer before you quit the game, if you use the SAVE SCORES option (disk buffers not
- updated).

- If you find some other bugs, or the game crashes, please e-mail me (specify your
- configuration).
- I'm also looking for people who could send me original disks for me to patch them
- for 680x0 or write HD-Installers (NO WAY FOR CRACKED VERSIONS).
- E-mail me if you're interested, or if you simply like this installer.

- DISCLAIMER:
-
- I'm not responsible for any damage caused directly or indirectly by this piece
- of software.
-
- DISTRIBUTION:
-
- This patch can be distributed freely, but I'd appreciate that you drop me a line
- if you include it in a coverdisk or PD collection.
-
- However, FFD (France Festival Distribution) is not allowed to include it in any
- of its PD disks (if you read usenet in fr.comp.sys.amiga, you'll know why).
- It's the only exception for the distribution.
