HOW TO MAKE MORE MEMORY AVAILABLE:
If you have less than 2 MB of extended memory AFTER THE GAME HAS LOADED,
there will not be enough room for storage of critical data and the program
will terminate with an 'insufficient memory' message.
SOLUTION: Free up as much extended memory as you can by removing any
DISK CACHE or RAM DISK programs (i.e. SMARTDRV or RAMDRIVE). Also free up as
much lower 640k memory as possible by removing non-critical TSR programs.
One way to accomplish this is to make a BOOT DISK that contains only essential
drivers and data. Once the BOOT DISK is created, you simply restart the
computer with the BOOT DISK in the floppy drive. This method can make more
memory available by 'cleaning up' the boot process. You can return the
computer to its normal state by removing the BOOT DISK and then reseting the
computer. A special BOOT DISK MAKER is provided with this program to assist
in this process.
To use it, go to the MOONDEMO directory and type: BOOT [enter]
Be sure to have a floppy available for use as the BOOT DISK.
---------------------------------------------------
VIEW KEYS
KEY VIEW (Movement mode only - Key must be held down)
A Look LEFT 30 degrees
S Look RIGHT 30 degrees
Z Look to the REAR
Q Look LEFT 90 degrees
W Look RIGHT 90 degrees
D Look DOWN 30 degrees
F Look UP 30 degrees
NOTE:
The above VIEW KEYS do not alter the walking direction but simply act
as a 'Head Turn' as long as the key is held down. When the key is released,
the view will return to the forward view.
TO CHANGE YOUR WALKING DIRECTION to match the current view, DOUBLE CLICK the
left mouse button or switch to Interactive Mode while the VIEW KEYS are pressed.

SOUND CARD TROUBLE SHOOTING
NOTE: Most sound cards provide a mixer program for adjusting relative volumes.
You may need to run this program and set your volumes before starting the game.
SOUND BLASTER AWE 32:
- The AWE 32 will auto detect as a Sound Blaster 16. You will need to
manually select AWE 32 in the configuration screens.
ESS AUDIO DRIVE:
- Will autodetect as a Sound Blaster but will not work. You must
use the ESS driver.
AZTEC SOUND GALAXY:
- Can be configured as a Sound Blaster or a Microsoft Sound system. We suggest
you use the Microsoft setting for better quality sound.
- The Sound Galaxy will detect as a Microsoft Sound System but the DMA Channel
returned may be incorrect for the card. You may need to try a different
DMA Channel to make the driver work.
GRAVIS ULTRASOUND & ULTRASOUND MAX:
- There is currently no MIDI driver for Gravis but we hope to have one soon.
Please contact us for an update.
- Autodetect may lock up when it tries to find a Sound Blaster with a Gravis
in the computer. If this happens, turn off your computer and restart. The
next time, autodetect will bypass Sound Blaster and correctly detect Gravis.
NOTE: If you get an "off board parity error" or "CMOS mismatch error",
don't worry, simply turn the computer off and restart.
ENSONIQ SOUNDSCAPE:
- Autodetect will detect the Ensoniq as a Sound Blaster and a Microsoft Sound
System but will not work correctly. You must use the SoundScape driver.
- The first time you press the "Sound Test" button following a autodetect you
may hear static or silence. If you have selected the SoundScape driver,
press the "Sound Test" button a second time and it will work fine.
MICROSOFT SOUND SYSTEM:
- If you attempt to configure the Microsoft Sound system as a General MIDI
device, you will lose music completely. In order to restore music you will
have to exit and re-enter the demo and configure the MIDI device as a
Microsoft Sound system.
MEDIA VISION PRO AUDIO 16
- Users with VESA local bus video cards may experience distorted sound.
Sometimes configuring the card as a Sound Blaster will improve this problem.
LOGITECH SOUNDMAN 16
- May be configured as a Media Vision Pro Audio 16 or a Sound Blaster 1.0.
ROLAND RAP 10
- Will work as a MIDI music device but does not currently work as a
Digital Sound device. Call us for an update.
