ECF is a copyrighted play-program and it is provided as is. Any
information and all statements in ECF are without guarantee.
There are no warranties expressed or implied. This is the first
edition of ECF. The next ECF update will appear in September 1997.
I will ask many distributors to edit ECF[1997] by the same way as
ECF[1996]. Please look in autumn 1997 in your local shops for
Shareware-CD-ROMs and CD-ROM-Magazines.
ECF is distributed as shareware in a DEMO state for testing the
program capacity. To play without limits, pay the license fee $5
and you will get a message with the code to switch off the DEMO
state. For registration send the money (only cash in banknotes)
with your name and address to the program author (see page 4).
The license fee is only for the registered program version.
Everyone may distribute ECF in the DEMO state as a whole, unchanged,
free of charge program package. If you want to distribute ECF in
the DEMO state, you have to consider the ECF program environment.
ECF was developed by this configuration :
OPERATING SYSTEM > MS-DOS 6.xx
PROCESSOR > Intel 80486
GRAPHIC CARD/MONITOR > VGA card used with 16 colours
and 640x480 pixels
RAM > 8 Megabyte
HARDDISK > 25 Megabyte free disk space
This configuration enable ECF to run under MS-DOS and Microsoft
Windows 3.1 with the command ECF.EXE (only in the ECF main directory
on the MS-DOS level).
Only for Windows: ECF is an MS-DOS-extended program that uses DOSXNT
to run with Microsoft Windows 3.1. The driver called
DOSXNT.386 belongs to ECF. You must specify the
driver in the [386Enh] section of SYSTEM.INI (look
in your Windows directory) as follows :
DEVICE=path\DOSXNT.386
path is the directory with the DOSXNT.386 file.
You can find DOSXNT.386 after the installation in
your ECF main directory.
It is your own risk to install ECF. There is no liability for any
damage caused by the use of ECF. Do not attempt to use a video
configuration, which is not 100% compatible. Otherwise you risk
damaging your display monitor.
If you have loaded ECF from CD-ROM, make sure that the files ECF.CFG
and ECF.PFG are not write-protected.

Short descripton
----------------
ECF documents the events in the European Cup, Cup-Winners'Cup, and
UEFA Cup from a historical point of view. Each club in the history
of the European club competitions has a club value calculated by the
amount of all match values according to their level (qualification
round 1/128, first main round 1/64, ... semi final 1/4, final 1/2,
title winner 1/1). The user has to play several cup final tournaments,
in which he must determine matches with a winner and loser team.
If the winner has the same club value as the loser, the player gets
the highest pointnumber 100. If the winner is much more succesful than
the loser, the player gets only a few points. The tournament is over,
if the chosen winner has a lower club value than the chosen loser.
The primary aim of the game is the all-time table of the European Cup,
Cup-Winners'Cup, UEFA Cup and the all-time table of all competitions.
They will be accessible by achieving the maximum pointnumber.
In contrast to the annual European club competitions, where at most
64 clubs take part in the UEFA Cup, in ECF more than 600 clubs try
to get the cup. So you can get the all-time table only step by step.
Therefore ECF has an extensive database, which helps you to go
forward. In addition to this it can answer such questions :
What is the sign from RSC Anderlecht ?
Who was the English champion in 1892 ?
Where is Dnepr Dnepropetrovsk situated ?
From which country comes Plastika Nitra ?
Which club is record champion in Portugal ?
From which Spanish city comes FC Castilla ?
Which club did win the European Cup in 1967 ?
Which club is the current champion in Sweden ?
In which year Arsenal London was established ?
What is the basis of the UEFA Five-Year value ?
Who was the European Player of the Year in 1978 ?
How many spectators seizes the Nou Camp stadium in Barcelona ?
The database includes
- a roll of honour with any title winner team and all match
results of the European club competitions since 1956.
- country maps with club locations and domestic champions
and cup winners in the past.
- a club archives with match results and profiles. The
current TOP50 clubs of Europe are introduced in a special
club file with their sign and information about club persons
and the squad.
- a nation valuation with the UEFA Five-Year values and the
last final table of any premier league within the UEFA.
You can also play a match, which requires good reactions, a quick
view and intelligence. Two teams try to win the match by scoring
goals. The power for the match comes from a quiz to the European
club competitions.
To install ECF, take the Setup Disk and execute the command SETUP.EXE.
If you do not have the original disks, consider the instructions of
the distributor. After the installation you can start the program in
the ECF main directory with ECF.EXE. First of all read the intro-
duction (function 1 in the main menu). Game handling and database
access are explained in the program itself. A match begins with a
comprehensive description.
