The Retribution Demo
----------------------
System recommendations
486 DX/33 or higher
500k minimum conventional memory
8Mb RAM
Sound Blaster Board
Mouse
Installation
--------------
This Retribution demo does not have to be installed to your hard drive.
You can run it straight from the CD drive. This does however mean that you'll
need to type in some command line options to tell the program what the system
setup is.
The demo is inside the RETRIB directory on the CD.
There are two separate demos you can run, RETDEMO4 if you have 4Mb of RAM
available or RETDEMO8 if you have 8Mb of RAM available. The 8Mb version has
in-game music.
The command line options are:
MOUSE(default) If you want to play using a mouse.
JOYSTICK If you want to play using a joystick.
KEYBOARD If you want to play using a keyboard.
SB8 Play SFX/music through 8 bit Sound Blaster.
SB16 Play SFX/music through 16 bit Sound Blaster.
SBAUTO Auto detect Sound Blaster base address.
SBPORT=<no> Manually set the Sound Blaster base address.
SBIRQ=<no> Manually set the Sound Blaster IRQ number.
SBDMA=<no> Manually set the Sound Blaster DMA.
MIDIPORT=<no> Play music through general MIDI.
SB16MIDI=<no> Play music through the Sound Blaster 16 MIDI.
For example if you want to run the demo with 8bit Sound Blaster SFX and MIDI
music you would type:
RETDEMO8 SB8 SBAUTO MIDIPORT=330
or if you want to run it with joystick, 16 bit SFX/muisc and your card won't
auto detect properly.
RETDEMO8 JOYSTICK SB16 SBPORT=220 SBIRQ=7 SBDMA=1 SB16MIDI=330
