ELIMINATION WHIST FOR WINDOWS - VERSION 1.0
REQUIRED:
WINDOWS 3.1
386DX - 25MHz or Higher
4 Megs of RAM / 2 Megs (Maybe?)
640 by 480 resolution mode ONLY (Shareware Version)
2 Megs of hard drive space
STRONGLY RECOMMENDED:
Windows compatible Sound Card
SOUND CONSIDERATIONS:
* NOTE: If you do not have a sound card turn "Sound Off" in the "Options"
menu (default is on).
* NOTE: At times you may notice that the players sentences are being cut
off. This is because the sound is told to stop playing when the animation
finishes. To correct this try slowing down the animation speed.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
STEP 1 - If you are reading these instructions you have already passed
the first phase of installation which is unzipping the file "elim.zip".
STEP 2 - Start Windows
STEP 3 - Open the Program Manager
STEP 4 - Click on: File
Run
STEP 5 - In the command line box type:
a:setup
** NOTE: "a:" refers to the path (drive & directory) you unzipped
the files into. The file "elim.zip" can be unzipped onto one 1.44
floppy disk. If you have unzipped the files into a directory on your
hard drive I suggest installing the game in another directory so the
unzipped files can be deleted easily.
STEP 6 - The setup program will then guide you through the programs
installation into windows.
STEP 7 - If all goes well (fingers-crossed), the setup program should have
created a program group for Elimination Whist which includes two icons.
The program icon, and the Help icon.
** THE INSTALLATION IS COMPLETE **
HOW TO PLAY
Elimination Whist is a rather simple form of whist but has very subtle
strategies. For information on how to play refer to HELP on the menu
bar of the program or click on the HELP ICON that was created during
the installation.

OTHER PROJECTS:
TABLE TALK FOR WINDOWS - This game is along the line of the "HOYLE" series
of games. It will contain a variety of card and classic board games
(including Elimination Whist). The format will be very similar to
Elimination Whist, just a wider variety of games to play.
COMPLETION DATE: Late 1994 (time permitting)
RING LEGENDS - This is no arcade game. It is a serious boxing simulation
and encyclopedia. Match famous pugilists of the past against each other
and find out who really was "The Greatest". No two fights are ever the
same. Cuts, injuries, and fouls its all here. A wide variety of prefight
options include the # of rounds, scoring system, referee tendancies,
3 knockdown rule, standing 8, and hometown advantage to name a few.
There are 4 Play Modes which range from the full blown version which
takes approx. 15 minutes (12 rounds) to a quick version that takes
5 seconds to complete a match. In addition, their are THREE MODES in
which you can match the greats of the ring. Exhibition Mode, in which you
can match any two fighters you wish in a series of bouts. League Mode,
which lets you select a number of fighters (say ten, for top ten) and
will keep a running total of the fighters records. Tournament Mode,
which allows the user to select a number of fighters who will compete
in a tournament. Imagine Rocky Marciano, Joe Louis, Jack Dempsey, and
Muhammad Ali in a tournament.
Who would win? Well, wonder no longer. RING LEGENDS can answer
your questions!
COMPLETION DATE: Late 1994 (Shareware Version)
