INSTALLATION
Insert the CD-ROM into your CD-ROM drive and go to File Manager
(located in the Main Program Group). Click on the icon that represents
your CD-ROM drive (generally your "D" or "E" drive). Double-click on
Setup.exe. The installer will ask you to click on the programs
you wish to install. We recommend all of them.
The installer will create a Program Group called "Big Top" with an icon
for each program you've installed. For each product you install the
setup program will also install the electronic manual for that product.
After the installer installs the selected programs, it will install
Adobe Acrobat Reader, which will allow you to read the electronic
versions of our manuals.
NOTE
Hello Kitty Big Fun Deluxe can run off the CD or off the hard drive.
If you run off the CD only, 1.5MB of support files will be installed onto
your computer. Performance will improve if you choose to run off the
hard drive, but you will still need the CD in the drive in order to
play. Running off the hard drive requires 36MB of hard disk space.
Big Top's Cartoon Toolbox can be run off the CD or off the hard drive.
If you run off the CD, only 5MB of support files will be installed onto
your computer. Performance will improve if you choose to run off the
hard drive, but the CD will still need to be in the CD-ROM drive in
order to play. Running off the hard drive requires 50MB of hard disk
space.
Keroppi Day Hopper runs off the hard drive and does not require the
CD after installation. You must use the CD, however, to read the
Keroppi manual or to play the Demo. Keroppi Day Hopper requires 7MB of
hard disk space.
WHAT'S ON THIS CD
Big Top's Cartoon Toolbox Starring Felix the Cat
Have you ever wanted to make you own cartoons? With Big Top's Cartoon
Toolbox anyone can design, direct and create their own cartoons, just
like the ones seen on television. With hundreds of animations, sound
effects, props and more, kids and adults will have a blast making
their cartoon visions a reality with Felix and his friends.
Hello Kitty Big Fun Deluxe
For kids ages three to eight, Hello Kitty Big Fun Deluxe is simply
irresistible. Hello Kitty inspires kids to create their own songs,
stories, and drawings, while teaching reading, arithmetic, art, music,
shapes, colors and more! Hello Kitty takes the youngest pupil to the
head of the class.
Keroppi Day Hopper
Keroppi Day Hopper inspires kids to write by doing the impossible,
making it fun! With creative writing ideas, personalized prompts,
colorful animations, surprise sound effects and an in-depth calendar
and address book, kids and parents will both find Keroppi a must for
their household. (Please find the Keroppi serial number located in the
CD case; you'll need it to begin the fun.)
Also included on this CD is Big Top's very own demo. It will give
you a look at the company that makes these amazing products.
NEW FEATURES NOT MENTIONED IN THE MANUALS
Hello Kitty Big Fun Deluxe
If you have a color printer, you can now print in color in the Art
Module. Simply hold down the ALT key while clicking on the printer
icon. The Art Module now also allows you to erase the black lines of
the canvas by holding down the ALT key after selecting the eraser.
You will notice that your eraser cursor changes.
Big Top's Cartoon Toolbox Starring Felix The Cat
You will notice that the cartoons you export to give to your friends
are quite large in file size. This is because they contain all of the
sounds and art of your cartoon. But if your friend also has the
Cartoon Toolbox, you won't need to do a full export because there is
now The Cartoon Transformer. If you want to give a cartoon to a
friend, or upload the cartoon to Big Top's Home Page on The World Wide
Web (www.Bigtop.com), just export the cartoon using Transfrm.exe,
located in the FCT directory. Instead of an exported cartoon of two
to three megabytes, your "transformed" cartoon may only be 60 to 120k.
