AoC Installation!
≡≡=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=≡≡
To setup AoC follow these simple steps:
1) If your system uses more than one dropfile (nodes), then copy chiv.cfg to
another file with the node number.
eg. copy chiv.cfg chiv2.cfg : node 2 cfg.
eg. copy chiv.cfg chiv3.cfg : node 3 cfg. etc...
Now edit the cfg file you would like to use for each node to change the
directory of your node dropfile, which node to use, etc...
NOTE: some options may not be available.
2) Now run chiv.exe.
To run a different cfg file, run chiv.exe using the [/n?] option.
eg. chiv /n3 : will run the game with chiv3.cfg.
(chiv.exe alone will assume to use chiv.cfg)
[NOTE]: If it gives you a fatal error, because of a *.dat file missing, just
run DEF.EXE to set the data file to the default settings.
[NOTE]: If it gives you an error like "Game in use, ..," just delete the file
2FLAG.FLG this will fix it.
[NOTE]: Use UMAPS.EXE to add/remove user-made maps in the game, if registered
that is.
[NOTE]: The option '~' in the war menu and in the outside kingdom menu is the
refresh option. This will refresh a map so all items in the map are
restored, extra items are deleted, and all monsters are revived. This
is only necessary if something is wrong with the map but the map
should last. But just in case something goes wrong or you just feel
like refreshing it, you can do it by selecting a password in the
UMAPS.EXE program then when you press '~' in the menu, you can enter
the password and it will refresh the desired map. You may give this
password to a specific user if you wish or just announce it for
everyone's access. It's up to you.
