- KING'S QUEST 6
- MANUAL INSTALLATION GUIDE
-
- Sierra On-Line's Technical Support department prepared the following
- instructions as an added service to our customers. PLEASE NOTE: SIERRA
- ON-LINE DOES NOT MAKE ANY CLAIMS, GUARANTEES, AND/OR PROMISES THAT THE
- FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS WILL WORK ON ANY AND/OR ALL COMPUTER SYSTEMS.
-
- Under some rare and unusual circumstances the INSTALL program that comes
- with King's Quest 6 may not be able to copy and configure all of the files
- from the floppy disks to a computer's hard disk drive. For those rare
- instances we have created this manual installation guide. Please follow
- the instructions in this guide very carefully.
-
- First, create a subdirectory to copy the game files to by typing:
- MD SIERRA
- CD SIERRA
-
- MD KQ6
- CD KQ6
-
- Now install the program files.:
-
- Step #1 Insert disk #1
- Type: COPY A:*.*
-
- Step #2
- Type: REN INTRO.P01 SEQ.EXE
-
- Step #3 Insert disk #2
- Type: COPY/b SEQ.EXE+A:\INTRO.*
- (substitute B: if you are installing from the B drive)
-
- Step #4 Insert disk #3
- Type: COPY/b SEQ.EXE+A:\INTRO.*
- (substitute B: if you are installing from the B drive)
-
- If you're installing from 5.25" disks repeat step #4 with disk #4.
-
- Step #5 From disk #3 (3.5") or disk #4 (5.25")
- Type: COPY A:\RESOURCE.P01 RESOURCE.000
-
- Step #6 Insert disk #4 (3.5") or disk #5 (5.25")
- Type: COPY/b RESOURCE.000+A:\RESOURCE.*
- (substitute B: if installing from B drive)
-
- Repeat step #6 by pressing the F3 function key until you get to disk #8
- (3.5") or disk #10 (5.25").
-
- Step #7 From disk #8 (3.5") or disk #10 (5.25")
- Type: COPY A:\AUDIO.P01 RESOURCE.AUD
-
- Step #8 Insert disk #9 (3.5") or disk #11 (5.25")
- Type: COPY/b RESOURCE.AUD+A:\AUDIO.*
-
- Step #9 Finally, type the following commands:
-
- COPY A:\*.HEP
- COPY A:\*.SCR
- COPY A:\*.TEX
- COPY A:\*.V56
-
- Now type INSTALL from the hard drive and choose your sound and video
- configuration.
-
- INSTALLING OPENING CARTOON ONLY
-
- To only install the opening cartoon simply follow these steps:
-
- Insert disk #1 and type:
- COPY A:\INTRO.P01 SEQ.EXE
-
- Insert disk #2 and type:
- COPY/b SEQ.EXE+A:\INTRO.*
-
- Insert disk #3 and type:
- COPY/b SEQ.EXE+A:\INTRO.*
-
- If installing from 5.25" disks, insert disk #4 and type:
- COPY/b SEQ.EXE+A:\INTRO.*
-
- SEQ.EXE is a 3,022,622 bytes large and is a self-extracting archive file.
- When King's Quest 6 is first started from the KQ6.BAT file it automatically
- decompresses SEQ.EXE into the individual cartoon files.
-
- The opening cartoon is 5,890,048 bytes when decompressed, so you must have
- at least 9 Megs of disk space availalble before attempting to install and
- decompress it.
-
- After the SEQ.EXE file has been created on the hard drive you will need 6
- Megs of free disk space in order to decompress it. DELETING OPENING CARTOON
-
- To delete the opening cartoon from the hard drive simply type DEL *.SEQ
-
