REGISTRATION
1. The game supplied is an unregistered version. This version is
provided as a demonstration of the game capabilities and provides
a fully functioning BACCARAT simulation. Some game enhancements
are reserved for those users who find this game to be a worthwhile
investment. Shareware is a try before you buy marketing method. If
you make regular use of this software, you are expected to "purchase"
it by paying the registration fee. As an incentive to register this
program, I will send you the newest version of this software complete
with all the game enhancements not available in the unregistered
copy. These features are listed below.
REGISTRATION BENEFITS
1. Your registered version will no longer have registration reminders
on screen.
2. Your registered version will save all game information for all players
and will recall this information for each new game allowing the player
to continue a game started in a previous session.
3. Your registered version will allow up to 6 "Human" players to play at
one time. Any seats not occupied by a human will be filled in by computer
generated players. The unregistered version allows only one "Human" player
to play at a time.
4. Sound Blaster support is provided. If you have a Sound Blaster or 100%
compatible system, you can order the optional voice pack for this game.
These files will allow you to hear digital recordings of the words seen
in the talk balloons. This provides for a more realistic and entertain-
ing game. NOTE: When all voice files are decompressed to your hard disk,
they will occupy nearly 1 mega byte of space.
5. Registered users can order additional "ULTIMATE" games at a 20% discount.
The registered version of the games "Ultimate Blackjack" and "Ultimate
Gin" can be purchased for $8.00 each (regular price is $10.00). If
you order the Voice Pack for Ultimate Baccarat, you will receive the Voice
Pack for all other "ULTIMATE" games you purchase free. If these games are
ordered at one time, you need only pay one shipping and handling fee for
the entire order. See "OTHER ULTIMATE GAMES" at the end of this file
for a description of these games.
