║ Aces Over Europe Patch A ║
╚════════════════════════════════════════════════╝
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:
Simply copy all files to your AOE directory and type: PATCH
The patch file will make all necessary file changes and verify
that the patch has worked.
We also suggest that, if you are NOT using a Colorado Spectrum
Notebook Game Port, you run the batch file FIXJOY.BAT, included in
this patch. To run this simply type: FIXJOY This will disable the
initialization process for the Gamp Port, which has been shown to
cause problems on machines not equipped with the Notebook Game Port.
Should you subsequently purchase a Notebook Game Port, the
initialization can be re-enabled by typing: FIXJOY U
PATCH ENHANCEMENTS
Owners of newer Packard Bell computers were experiencing
problems when attempting to fly missions. This would result
in a lockup when the "Please Wait" screen was displayed. This
has been corrected.
There also appeared to be a conflict between the
initialization routine for the Notebook Game Port adaptor and
the memory configuration of a few machines, most notably
ACERs. Using the FIXJOY.bat eliminates these problems.
Some customers have still reported erratic behavior with
certain joystick/gamecard/computer combinations. We have
incorporated several fixes to our joystick code which we believe
completely addresses all of these complaints.
We would like to thank Bob Church for providing us with his
source code for his joystick patches, which are justifiably
famous among the Compuserve community. We would also like to
thank Bob for the great help he gave us in testing this patch.
If you continue to experience any problems, or if you have any
questions concerning any of the above steps, our Technical Support
Team will be more than happy to assist you.
