Ultima Ascension
Tech Notes
(c)1999, Origin Systems
====================================================
Video Viewers
====================================================
The Press Kit Tools setup contains:
Quicktime 2.1.2: Required to view interview sections
(Note: Quicktime 3.0 will not play the selected files.)
Windows Media Player (full): This version of the Windows
Media Player includes an MPEG decoder which is
necessary to view the trailer and tour sections. If your
Windows Media Player cannot currently play MPEG files,
you will need to install this version.
You can install both of these players from the startup
screen of the Press Kit.
====================================================
Screen Resolution
====================================================
The Press Kit is best viewed at a display resolution of
640 X 480. To change the display resolution on your
computer, right-click anywhere on the desktop and drop-down
to Properties. Click the Settings tab and move the
slider to the left to 640 X 480. Make sure that the Color
Palette setting is at least 16-bit (thousands of colors).
You may change the settings back to their original state
by following the same procedure. Some computers allow you
to change screen display "on-the-fly" from the toolbar.
====================================================
Press Vault Section
====================================================
The Press Vault section (accessible from within the Press
Kit) contains materials for journalists to download for use
in print and as reference: game and character background text
files; team biographies; photos; screen shots; concept art;
renders, etc.
The Ultima Ascension Press Vault contains three setup types:
Typical: Full install with artwork (approx. 114 MB)
Compact: Game/team text info only (approx 125K)
Custom: Allows you to select components
If hard drive space is a concern, you should choose
"Custom" and select which materials you would like
to copy to your hard drive.
