- README file for Advanced NetWars
- ================================
-
- NOTE: When running Advanced NetWars in Multi-Player mode, you may
- experience an IPX Socket initialisation error during startup. Try
- adding/increasing the IPX SOCKETS value in NET.CFG to solve this
- problem.
-
- For example, in the file \NWCLIENT\NET.CFG add the line:
-
- Netware DOS Requester
- IPX SOCKETS = 25
-
-
-
- Advanced NetWars has the following major new features over the original
- NetWars shipped with Personal NetWare 1.0:
-
- 1. Six players can now take part in the Multi-Player game.
-
- 2. There are computer controlled ships in the Multi-Player game, 1 per
- player. So the maximum number of ships in a game is 12!. Computer
- controlled ships can be disabled from the options menu.
-
- 3. The Multi-Player game now has a 'Shoot-Out' mode which forces all
- players to start at the same time and prevents them from rejoining the
- game once they have been killed. The last player alive is the shoot-out
- winner. Shoot-Out mode is enabled from the options menu.
-
- 4. Players can fire missiles in the Multi-Player game.
-
- 5. Shape editor software is included (see NWDRAW.EXE). Players can
- design their own ship using the shape editor, save it as a file, then
- load it into the Multi-Player game from the options menu. Help for
- the shape editor is included.
-
- 6. There is support for Sound-Blaster compatible sound cards.
-
- 7. There is support for Joystick control.
-
- 8. The Single-Player game has been enhanced. Play it to find out more!
-
- 9. Players can see external views of their ship in the control panel by
- pressing the F1 key during a game.
