This is a freely distributable demo version of RETURN OF
THE LIVING TEXT ADVENTURE. This demo version does
not allow the game to be saved to disk, omits two
graphics disks, and does not come with a manual or
hard drive install program.
A fully functional version of the program (coming on 3
disks) can be acquired by sending a contribution to the
address below. Suggested donation is $25 US.
Preferred method for contributions is by
International Money Order (see your local post
office). But a contribution by other forms (eg.
cheque) is ok if you cannot manage a money order.
Permission is hereby granted to distribute this demo program on the
condition that no profit is gained from its distribution.
All document files must accompany it and remain unchanged.
It may not be distributed on 'copyright' non distributable PD
disks. It may be distributed on a BBS as long as that BBS does
not have charges for downloading of files.
The demo version of Rolta may be included on magazine coverdisks
as long as we are sent a copy of the distribution.
To register the software please fill out the registration form
found in the Registration file.
-----------
!!!!!!!!!!!! IMPORTANT NOTE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You *must* copy the file diskfont.library from your
workbench disk into the libs directory on the first
disk of the Rolta distribution. Commodore do not
allow this file to be freely distributed and it is
needed for this program to operate.
YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO RUN THE PROGRAM WITHOUT THIS
FILE.
If you have version 2.0+ of the Amiga operating system
you should also copy asl.library into the libs directory
to enable the use of the Amiga standard file requester.
If you install Rolta onto a hard drive, these problems should
not occur.
-----------
Known Problems :-
There are some known problems with this demo distribution
which are fixed in the registered version :-
1) The 'clear screen' menu item is currently used to save the
game options to disk (in the file .options in the advent
directory). The ability to save options to disk is a late
addition and a new graphic for this option was not added to
this demo version.
Report other problems you encounter when you register if you
want them fixed.
