WELCOME TO ANIMAL QUEST 1.00 ( SHAREWARE VERSION ) 01-DEC-1991
This README file answers some common questions and contains important,
last minute information in addition to documentation file AQ.DOC, order
form ORDER.DOC and ALIVE's catalog ALIVE.DOC
ANSWERS TO COMMON QUESTIONS
---------------------------------------------------------------------
A) SETUP: Before you start the game, run the installation program SETUPAQ
To make a selection, use the Up or Down keys to move and press <Enter>.
The SETUPAQ will create a batch file, QUEST.BAT, containing your
preferences. From then on, simply type QUEST <Enter> to start the game.
Please note that ANIMAL QUEST requires a minimum 512K of System memory.
B) GRAPHICS: To use ANIMAL QUEST, an EGA or VGA adapter is required.
Optional Super VGA graphics support for:
ATI TECHNOLOGIES: VGA WONDER & WONDER PLUS, VGA INTEGRA, VGA CHARGER

Also any SuperVGA card compatible with any of the above should work as
well. To use Super VGA graphics, your card must have at least 512K
video memory on board and your monitor must be able support 800X600 .
We plan to add support for new SuperVGA boards as we go along. For
example the new VESA and TRIDENT Super VGA chipsets will be supported
in the next release of ANIMAL QUEST.
C) OCEAN and JUNGLE animals are only available in the Registered version,
available through Alive Software. The Registered version is Enhanced
with over 1 Megabyte of graphics and sound effects data files.
D) MOUSE support is available in the Registered version. A Microsoft
compatible mouse is required. The mouse driver must be loaded before
running the program. The driver must be a recent one, 1989 or later.
E) DIGITIZED SOUND support is available in the Registered version. You
can hear the voices of the animals clearly, either through the IBM PC
speaker with no extra hardware, or through one of the following sound
card options: ADLIB, COVOX, MEDIA SOURCE, SOUND BLASTER, SOUND
COMMANDER and the Tandy SL/TL internal sound chip. Also any sound
board compatible with any of the above should work as well.
