- --------------------------
-
- INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
- -------------------------
- o An installation program is provided to assist you in
- loading RENEGADE ROBOT RETALIATION on to your hard disk.
- For this program to work, please enter the following
- command at the DOS prompt:
-
- INSTALL C:
-
- where C: = hard drive on which the program is to be
- installed
-
- o Substitute other drive letter as appropriate. Please
- note you must have 1.4 Megabytes free on your hard drive
- for the program to load properly.
-
- o This installation program will create a directory named
- c:\JUST4ME\RRR on your hard drive and store all the needed
- files in it.
-
- o If you prefer, you can also run the program directly from
- a floppy disk or CD-ROM by typing GO at the DOS prompt.
- Please note that the program will proceed at a slower pace
- due to the slower transfer times of these media.
-
- o Please do not try to save your game if operating from the
- CD-ROM as this media does not allow such operation.
-
- EQUIPMENT REQUIREMENTS
- ----------------------
- o Due to the graphics and computational intensive nature of
- this program, we recommend the following minimum equipment
- for running RENEGADE ROBOT RETALIATION:
-
- -- IBM (or compatible) 486 DX4 with 50 MHz clock speed or
- faster
- -- At least 1.0 Megabyte of video RAM
-
- o Movement speeds within the maze are automatically adjusted
- to the speed of the processor used. Please note that
- animation will be even smoother with faster processors due
- to their more frequent screen updates.
-
- o Mouse, sound card, and joystick support are also provided to
- make your game playing more realistic and enjoyable.
-
- o You will be asked to select NO SOUND, PC SOUND, or SOUND CARD
- at the beginning of the game. We suggest you select the best
-
- - 1 - RENEGADE ROBOT RETALIATION
- --------------------------
-
- possible alternative consistent with your equipment.
-
- o RENEGADE ROBOT RETALIATION automatically detects what sound
- card you are using -- i.e., there is no need for you to enter
- input ports, IRQ's, or DMA. If your machine locks up for any
- reason, your sound card is not supported. Please reboot and
- select either PC SOUND or NO SOUND.
-
- o Next, you will be asked to select how you want to control
- your game -- i.e., keyboard, mouse, and/or joystick.
- If you have a joystick, we suggest you use it since it
- offers the best possible control over your remote control
- tank.
-
- o If a joystick is selected and our software confirms that it
- can find and operate with it, you will be asked to calibrate
- the joystick. Because of the wide variety of joysticks, each
- with their own particular characteristics, this step is
- necessary to ensure proper operation. Please follow the
- on-screen instructions.
-
- OVERALL OBJECTIVE
- -----------------
- o To protect the underground complex by "taking out" as many
- renegade robots as possible with your remote control R3 squad
- tank.
-
- LEVELS
- ------
- o There are ten (10) levels within the R3 underground complex.
- It is easier to survive in the lower levels than in the
- higher levels.
-
- o You can choose to enter any level as many times as you want.
-
- o To succeed, you must conserve your energy and health so that
- you can reach the pickup point in the Southeast corner of
- each level.
-
- o At the end of each level, your health and energy will be
- restored.
-
- SCORING/EARNINGS
- ----------------
- o You earn money by taking out robots.
-
- o Since robots on the higher levels are more difficult to kill,
- you earn more for them than the lower level robots.
-
- - 2 - RENEGADE ROBOT RETALIATION

- earnings. You will be promptly informed if you have
