- This step-by-step installation is for people that don't have the AmigaDOS
- Installer program, or if you like to install programs manually.
-
- 1. If you have an old version of GMS you may want to delete it to get
- rid of any old files. The other option is to copy the new files over
- your old version. If you are a new user, then simply copy GMS to a safe
- place on your hard-drive.
-
- 2. New users must assign GMS: to the main directory. This is a standard
- assignment that *must* be available or else you will not be able to run
- anything. To make it a permanent assignment, put it in your
- S:user-startup.
-
- Example:
-
- Assign GMS: HD1:System/GMS/
-
- 3. Reboot your amiga to make the GMS: assignment active, or open a shell
- and make the GMS: assignment if that suits you better.
-
- 4. Run GMS:Utils/GMSPrefs/GMSPrefs, setup the screen settings to suit your
- machine and save it as the default. If you have OCS/ECS you must set the
- chipset option correctly, as the default is AGA which could crash these
- older machines.
-
- To run the demos, just open a shell window, CD to the GMS:Demos/ directory
- and execute them. If they don't work, then there is either not enough
- chip ram available, they can't find the GMS: assign, or the data files
- are missing. Most require some sort of joystick or mouse activity if you
- are to see anything happen.
-
- If you have any problems with the executables, the developers archive
- contains IceBreaker, which can tell you what is going wrong.
-
-
- Demos support Left-Amiga + M screen switching.
