TITANIC DEMO
RELEASE NOTES
4/29/96
---- WELCOME---------------------------------------------------
These release notes contain late-breaking information about
the Titanic demo, a quick overview of how to play, a list of
known problems with this pre-release, and information on
contacting technical support.
For information on installing and troubleshooting problems
with the Titanic Demo, please see the install guide that came
with your CD. If you didn't receive an install guide, it is
stored as a Microsoft Write document on the Titanic CD. The
filename is "\INSTALL.WRI". You may also contact technical
support; we will be happy to mail one to you.

While playing the Windows version of the demo, you can use
the following keys:
Esc Skip the current animation, or pause
the game
Arrow keys Move forward, turn left or right

---- QUICK OVERVIEW -------------------------------------------
After starting the demo you will see an opening movie
followed by a screen that gives you three options. Clicking on
the first button will send you to the "Trailer" section of the
demo. This is a brief overview of the entire game. Clicking on
the second button will send you to the "Interactive" section of
the demo. Here your boss will give you a mission and you must
explore the ship to solve it. You can save your game at any
time during the "Interactive" section. Clicking on the third
button will send you to the "Slideshow" section of the demo.
This is a collection of screen shots from the actual game
"Titanic: Adventure Out of Time".
---- KNOWN PROBLEMS -------------------------------------------
This pre-release demo of Titanic uses an alpha version of
Cyberflix's DreamFactory engine. While DreamFactory has been
tested on many configurations, there are several known problems
with this version, and probably a few unknown ones as well.
Cyberflix makes no warrenty as to the fitness of the alpha or
its ability to run on your computer. That said, here's the
list of known problems in this version:
- Titanic currently requires about 8000K free memory in
Windows, which means it probably won't run on a machine
with 8MB of RAM. Memory requirements are being
tightened up, and the release version will definitly run
on an 8MB machine
- The loader program (the one with the four buttons) has
problems on some Windows 3.1 machines. If the loader
causes a General Protection Fault, you can bypass it.
Run \INSTALL\16BIT\_SETUP.EXE on the CD to install, or
run the program TI.EXE in the folder on your hard drive
to play.
- The uninstaller program will not remove any saved games
in the Titanic directory, and will complain that there
were files "not created by Titanic" in the folder. If
this happens, just delete the folder by hand.
- If you have a joystick, be sure it's calibrated before
you run Titanic, or you might end up spinning in circles.
You can disable joystick support from the options menu
in the loader.
