- │ Troubleshooting: │ │
- │ │ │
- │ Make sure all files from the original BATS25.ZIP are in the │ │
- │ same directory, and that you start the game from that directory. │ │
- │ │ │
- │ If you run the game from floppy or a very slow hard disk, you may │ │
- │ notice a slow-down in the music and animation between rounds. This │ │
- │ is normal. │ │
- │ │ │
- │ To run the game under Windows (not recommended), run it in a │ │
- │ full-screen, exclusive window. You may also have to turn off │ │
- │ DIGITAL FX under the SOUND menu. │ │
- │ │ │
- │ Some machines cannot run BATS properly with QEMM in memory. We │ │
- │ believe that this problem has been eliminated in 2.5, however, │ │
- │ if you encounter problems first try booting without QEMM. If this │ │
- │ fixes things for you, please drop us a note or leave voice-mail. │ │
- │ │ │
- │ If you have problems and you are running Stacker, try running Bats │ │
- │ from a non-stacker drive. │ │
- │ │ │
- │ Your settings are saved in a file called BATS.SET. Keyboard │ │
- │ settings are in BATS.KEY, and joystick settings are in BATS.JOY. │ │
- │ You can erase these files to reset the game back to its default │ │
- │ state. │ │
- │ │ │
- │ If you are tired of seeing the intro everytime you play, choose │ │
- │ INTRO in the OTHER menu from inside the game, and it will change │ │
- │ to INTRO:OFF. │ │
- │ │ │
- │ If the game is too difficult: It always seems that way at first- │ │
- │ keep playing and you will improve! Remember to move up and down │ │
- │ to avoid bats that come from the sides. │ │
