- Before you run The Eggs Files 5 for the first time, please run the SETUP
- program to set up your SoundBlaster if you have one, and also sound and
- music from the PC speaker during the game. By default, a port 220
- SoundBlaster is selected. If you have no SoundBlaster or a sound card that
- is not SoundBlaster compatible then please click 'Setup SoundBlaster' and
- choose 1 - No SoundBlaster. If you have a port 220 SoundBlaster choose
- option 2, or for a port 240 SoundBlaster choose 3.
-
- NOTE ABOUT SETUP PROGRAM AND WINDOWS: Run the SETUP program full screen.
- Running in a window caused strange results on screen on my computer - the
- colours went a bit odd - but did not affect the workings of the program.
- To run SETUP full screen from Windows 95 right-click the SETUP file and
- choose Properties, Screen, Full screen, OK. From Windows 3.x use PIF Editor.
- If you are not familiar with PIF Editor click Help, Contents.
-
- To run Eggs Files 5:
- Run the EGGSFIL5 program. Make sure you have used the SETUP program
- before running Eggs Files 5 for the first time.
-
- Instructions:
- Full instructions are contained in the program - just click on
- "Instructions" from the menu screen.
-
- Trouble?!:
- If you keep getting error messages tell me, and also tell me the
- error number you get. Also tell me what you were doing at the time
- the error occurred - eg playing a level, on the map, just starting
- to run the EGGSFIL5 program, etc. I will then try to fix the problem
- in the next version.
-
- NOTE: Eggs Files 5 runs best in full screen with Windows 95. It works fine in
- a window but it will be slower than full-screen. If you are running Eggs
- Files 5 and want to change it to full screen, do NOT maximize the window but
- click the full-screen button - it looks like a + sign with arrows on it.
