British Countrysides
--------------------
Version CD 1.0
This CD ROM is designed to run on RISC PC and Archimedes computers which
have at least 4 megabytes of memory and a CD ROM drive. It will work with
a 640x480 pixels 256 colour display. For better Replay quality you should
switch to thousands of colours if your computer supports it. For
instructions on how to install and run this program, please consult the
booklet provided with this disc.
ACTIVITY SHEETS
The 'ACTSHTS' directory on the root of this CD ROM contains a number of
activity sheets which can be used in conjunction with British Countrysides.
Please consult the booklet for instructions.
CONDITIONS OF USE
Educational users are allowed to extract text and graphics from this disc to
use in their own work so long as it is not sold for gain or used outside the
purchasing school. The video clips and sound samples must NOT be extracted
from this CD ROM or run from any other medium unless you have the necessary
site licence. Full details of copyright are given on the printed booklet
supplied with the disc.
ONLINE SUPPORT
Anglia Multimedia's online service provides extra learning materials linked
to its discs. This is available on the World Wide Web at
http://www.anglia.co.uk. A more comprehensive learning service is provided
by Education Anglia, to be found on AOL UK (America Online). Log on to your
AOL site and use the keyword facility and the word ANGLIA for quick access.
There is also a Survival site on AOL with the keyword SURVIVAL.
SAVE STATUS
For details of the use of the save status and resume feature, please
consult the booklet provided with this disc.
By default the program saves a file named 'Resume' within the Extras
Folder. (Assuming that the Extras Folder is called '!BritC+', the
file resides at '!BritC+.Scripts.Status0.Resume'). This file is
automatically reloaded if the user chooses to 'Resume from Previous
Session' when re-running the disc.
The Resume file and other status files located within the
'!BritC+.Scripts.Status' directory are listed in the 'Load Status' menu.
Status files from elsewhere are loaded by dragging them onto the program's
main window.
In a classroom environment, it may be desirable to instruct each user to
save an individually named status file before leaving the disc. They can
then return to their previous session by explicitly loading their status
file. Status files may be saved within the default directory on the system
hard disc or to a floppy disc as described in the booklet.
Status files are cross-platform. If you also have the Windows MPC version
of this disc you can interchange status files between computers as follows:
Acorn to Windows MPC:
1. Run this version of the CD ROM on an Acorn RISCOS computer.
2. Save your status to an MSDOS format floppy disc.
3. Run the Windows MPC version of the CDROM on your MPC.
4. Load the status file from the DOS format floppy disc (select
'Acorn Status File' in the 'List files of Type:' menu).
5. The MPC should return to the same place with the same status
as the Acorn version you were running.
Windows MPC to Acorn:
1. Run the Windows version of this CD ROM on an MPC computer.
2. Save your current status to an MSDOS format floppy disc.
3. Remove the .KAS extension from the status file or save it as an 'Acorn
status file' (selected from the 'Save file as Type:' menu).
4. Run this CD ROM on an Acorn RISCOS computer.
Drag the status file from the MSDOS floppy disc onto the program's
main window.
5. The Acorn disc should return to the same place and with the same
status as the MPC version you were running.
