CHECKLIST FOR SETUP/PLAY PROBLEMS
----------------------------------
Before you assume there is something wrong with the game(s) or you
cannot get them to run on your system please check the following.
If you answer yes to any of them you are doing something wrong.
1. ARENA OF THE ANCIENTS:
_____ - You forgot to make sure SHARE is loaded (for Multi-node only)
_____ - You did not delete ALL the old game files prior setting up
this new version. Applicable ONLY if you are upgrading
from a previous version. Note: If you are registered then
do NOT delete your old key.dat file.
_____ - You forgot to run the DDSETUP.EXE program to configure the
GAME.CTL file first.
_____ - You forgot to run the OPTIONS.EXE after configuring the
GAME.CTL file.
_____ - The start up batch routine does not get the drop file
INTO the game directory OR tell the game where the drop
file can be found.
_____ - You attempted to alter the key.dat file without obtaining
the correct key code from me directly.
_____ - You are running a fossil but forgot to configure the
appropriate CTL file to show that you are using a fossil
and at what speed you have locked the port. Use the XFossil
option in the GAME.CTL file for speeds above 38400.
----- - You have not tried to change to a different drop file format
to see if that might be the problem.
----- - You do NOT have ANSI.SYS installed.
----- - You do NOT have ALL the game files in the same directory?
2. OK, I have not done anything wrong based on the above. What do I
do now? If it is a game problem fill out the bugrpt.frm completely
and then package it up with any error logs, your CTL file and the
batch routine which runs the game, and mail it to me.
Please note that I will NOT respond to ANY inquiries or bug reports unless
I get these things!
