3mHELP USING THE "APOLLO 11" HYPERBOOK0m
1mUSING APOLLO 110m
Using this Hyperbook presentation is simple. Just click on the
subject/command you want to display/perform and that action is carried
out - it's as simple as that!
1mTHE SYMBOLS - WHAT DO THEY REPRESENT?0m
If you have already looked through Apollo 11, you will of noticed
different symbols placed around the screen. These symbols, or "icons"
should be clicked on with the left mouse-buttons to perform a specific
task, for example the Double-Quaver symbol loads an audio sample.
Also, the symbol of a film camera, clapper board and film denotes an
image that can be displayed by clicking on it.
Usually, the symbol has text written underneath them to tell you which
image/sample will be loaded. In the case of audio samples, a line of
the sample is given, for example - "One small step for man, one giant
leap for mankind" tells you that the sample will load this speech.
1mCOMMON PROBLEMS, AND POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS0m
Problem
~~~~~~~
* Every time I load one of the larger samples, it plays normally and
returns me to Apollo 11. I then find that the pages go blank and the
screen flashes - stopping me from continuing. I own an Amiga A1200.
Solution
~~~~~~~~
* On Amiga A1200s causing the above problems, you should reset your
Amiga and hold down both mouse-buttons. Turn off CPU Caches and
select the original chipset from the "boot selection screen". Reboot
as normal - all should now work fine.
Problem
~~~~~~~
* I'm tired of swapping disks as I use Apollo 11. I own a hard disk
drive, and wonder if it is possible to install Apollo 11 on there.
Solution
~~~~~~~~
* It is possible to install Apollo 11 on a hard disk drive, but
requires some knowledge of Amiga DOS as well as Workbench. The
easiest way of doing this, is to copy all three disks onto the
partition of your choice and then adding "assign" statements to your
boot partition's startup-sequence. For example, if you create three
directories named: "Apollo-1", Apollo-2 and "Apollo-3", on your WORK:
partition, the assign statements would be:
Assign Apollo-1: Work:Apollo-1
Assign Apollo-2: Work:Apollo-2
Assign Apollo-3: Work:Apollo-3
Problem
~~~~~~~
* I bought my copy of Apollo 11 from a PD library and can't get to
display the images in the "Apollo 11 Picture Gallery". The system
keeps asking me to "INSERT APOLLO-3" what am I doing wrong?
Solution
~~~~~~~~
* You're not doing anything wrong. The version you presently own is
the "Unregistered" release which is not supplied with the third disk
"Apollo-3", which contains the images. If you become a registered
user (by paying the registeration fee) you will receive the third
disk.
Problem
~~~~~~~
* When I load my copy of Apollo 11 from my copy Workbench, the writing
appears to be different and the paragraphs are all chewed-up. The
headings are also much smaller, although the text still reads the same
and the colours are intact.
Solution
~~~~~~~~
* Your version of Workbench won't have the correct "fonts" installed
on it to correctly display Apollo 11. You should copy the fonts from
the disk "Apollo-1" (in the fonts directory) to the same directory on
your Workbench disk. This problem will also occur if you install
Apollo 11 on your hard drive.
