This demo was released at the Tonstad Party 15-10-95. It was made on a │
Pentium 60, but have been tested to run well on a 486dx4 and a dx2 with │
local bus video cards. It runs on ISA bus machines as well, except that it │
in addition to being much slower, the text part in the middle might be hard │
to read. Don't try to run this on a 386, it will work through the first │
parts, and then it will hang (at least that's what it did on the 386-20 we │
tested it on). │
│
For maximum performance we suggest that you have a GUS with at least │
512k of RAM (and it should be connected to your amplifier/PA or whatever). │
We have not really tested how much memory it requires, but it runs fine │
with 570k of free conventional memory. │
│
You may spread this demo around as long as you leave all files (including │
this one) unmodified, and as long as you don't take any charge for it. If │
this package of some reason melt down your cpu, make your mouse fly, or │
blowing up your stereo (!), we take no responsibility. But believe me, I'm │
sure it won't happen (except for the last part maybe ;) ) │
│
All effects in this demo are calculated real time, except for the sheep │
effect which was drawn by Lord M at the party ;) If you don't like it, │
(because it's an animation, or because it's a very ugly picture) │
don't watch it, just don't take it too seriously ;) and don't try it at │
home! The landscape text might be hard to read, and it's not really ment to │
be very readable either. │
│
As english isn't my first language, I'm sure this text and those in the demo │
are full of typos, but I hope that it's understandable anyways.... │

Q & A │
Q: I've got a GUS. The music wont play. Why? │
A: Be sure to have your ULTRASND environment variable set correctly. │
Q: I've got a Sound Blaster. The music won't play. │
A: The only soundcard it supports is the GUS. │
Q: Where are the donuts? │
A: In every other demo this year. │
Q: In win95, it won't start because it says that it *might* have to run in │
excluselively (sp?) MSDOS mode. │
A: At your DOS prompt icon, choose properties and advanced options. Choose │
not to display warning messages. │
│
Note that this version was released after the party as the party version │
hung some machines. │
