INTRODUCTION
If you haven't seen the demo yet, stop reading!! :-) However, if you
encountered any problems while running it, you may find the solution
below.
This demonstration took part in the Assembly'94 PC demo competition,
where it came third. We would like to thank all the people who voted
it; we hope to keep improving our work.
On the legal side of things, Iguana and everyone who contributed for
the demo will not, in any case, by any means, no matter what happens
or what damage should appear, be liable for it. This software is not
supposed to do anything else than what it does when you run it. Thus
it is not assumed to be suitable for any particular purpose; we will
not assume any responsibilities, expressed or implied, about it. You
know what we mean, don't you?
The package can be distributed freely without modification. No money
can be charged for it, other than standard fees for access to a BBS,
or the cost of the material the demonstration is recorded on. It can
not be used to add value to a commercial product; however, shareware
distributors can put it in their collections, be it CD-ROM or floppy
disks and similar computer media, as long as it's sold together with
other shareware of public domain programs in the same package; never
can this demonstration be alone in the sold package, or be the first
reason to give the customer in order to get him interested.
The demonstration can be used in computer shops in order to show the
power (or lack of power) of a machine running it. If you're in doubt
whether you're doing correctly or not regarding this limitations, do
not hesitate to contact us.

TROUBLESHOOTING
First of all, to run this demo you need at least a PC compatible 386
or above computer, with no less than four megabytes of RAM, a VGA or
compatible card and a hard disk. To fully enjoy it we recommend that
you have at least a 486/33 processor, a Gravis Ultrasound with 512Kb
of RAM and a local bus video card. SoundBlaster, SBPro or SB16 cards
or 100% compatible cards will also allow you to enjoy the music that
accompanies the graphical experience, but not with such quality like
the Gravis or GUSMax cards. SoundBlaster REQUIRES 2400Kb of EMS.
We have thoroughly tested this program in many machines with several
configurations; for example:
- 486DX2/66 with 12 megabytes of memory, an ISA ET4000 VGA card and
a Gravis Ultrasound card with one meg, running under MSDOS 5 with
the QEMM 6.0 memory manager, Smartdrive, some mouse driver. Other
configurations on this machine were a clean boot, boot with HIMEM
and no other TSR, boot with QEMM and no other TSR, etc.
- IBM PS/VP 486DX2/66 with 14 megabytes, a S3 VGA in motherboard, a
SB Pro 2.0 card, with CDROM and Ethernet drivers loaded, the demo
running from a doublespace partition and connected to the network
using NFS. Also, of course, tested on this machine with all those
drivers removed, including a clean boot test.
- 386SX/16 with 5 megabytes, 386MAX 6.0, TCP/IP and IPX drivers and
shelling out of a telnet terminal emulator, the demo running from
a Novell network drive. However, it looked rather poor due to the
slow processor and the lack of music.
In the infortunate case that you want to run the demo without sound,
you will need to specify a serial port that will be used as a timing
device. You'd rather specify a port with no devices connected to it,
such as a mouse or a printer. We know this sounds really strange but
that's the way we chose to do things.
If the demo doesn't work (hangs or stops with an error message):
- Turn on your computer and try again. (Yes!)
- Check that the sound parameters (card, port, IRQ, etc.) are OK.
- Try it witho
