DEMO DISTRIBUTION
You may give a copy of your Operation: Inner Space demo to others, but may not
distribute Operation: Inner Space for direct or indirect profit by any means, except
through express written agreement with Software Dynamics, Inc.
INSTALLING
You must first be in the Windows environment to install Inner Space.
1) Unzip INSPACE.ZIP in a temporary directory.
There should be 22 files created, including SETUP.EXE.
2) Run SETUP.EXE, the Inner Space installer.
3) Install Inner Space to a new directory (C:\SPACE by default) or over an
existing copy of Inner Space to upgrade it.
NOTE: After installing, the game sounds might be turned off. Open Game Setup (Alt-G)
to turn sound and voice effects back on. If this download does not include SND_FX.DLL
& ENG_FX.DLL, GO GAMDPUB on CompuServe to get the latest sound files for the game.
STARTING TO PLAY
Run Inner Space (INSPACE.EXE) from Windows. During the game intro, press 'ESC' to
start a new game. Select a ship to fly into Inner Space. To start playing, just
use the arrow keys (Thrust=UP, Turn=LEFT, RIGHT, Brake=DOWN). Use Shift or SPACEBAR
to shoot. For more information about the game, see the online help (press F1 or F2).
SCREEN SAVERS
Inner Space comes with a configurable screen saver interface so that a changing
game demonstration can be your screen saving display.
SHIP FACTORY
With the Inner Space Ship Factory, you can view all the ships in the game
and compare their characteristics. You can also use the Factory to make
customized ships for use in Inner Space!
TECH SUPPORT
We provide tech suppport by phone, fax, email, and regular mail. If you have access
to CompuServe, GO GAMDPUB and look in section 18 (Software Dynamics) for Inner Space
upgrades, hints, and technical support.
If reporting a problem with the game, we ask that you tell us if you can repeat the
problem yourself and provide all information necessary for us to repeat the problem.
If we can't repeat the problem, it will be very hard to fix it.
MEMORY
If the game halts with an error, it may be that Windows is low on memory.
Please check that Windows is set up to use at least 2Mb of virtual memory. To see or
change Virtual Memory settings, open the "386 Enhanced" item from the Windows Control
Panel (CONTROL.EXE).
VIDEO DRIVERS
Inner Space has been extensively tested on many different systems. However, there may
be problems with the drivers for some high-performance video cards. We have to devise
workarounds for such video cards. If you encounter a problem when the game is loading
graphics, it is probably a video driver problem. Try turning Enhanced Graphics off.
If that doesn't help, select VGA or SVGA from Windows Setup as your Display type. When
you run the game again, if the problem does not occur, the problem is definitely with
the video driver and we will work on a fix ASAP.
MIDI MUSIC
If Inner Space's music has incorrect or missing instruments, check your MIDI
mapper settings (in Windows Control Panel). For Enhanced midi sound cards, use
channels 1-10, Basic midi sound cards use channels 11-16.
