To setup game, type in at system prompt:
----------------------------------------
C:\>
a:setup1 a: c: \football
.
.
(reset machine)
C:\>
a:setup2 a: c: \football e:
.
.
C:\>
fe
where a: is the source drive
c: is your system drive
\football is root sub-directory
e: is your RAM disk designation
At the end of the first quarter, the game
will ask you a Playoff Trivia question which must
be answered correctly to continue playing the game.
You must register to receive the Playoff Trivia
answers. Send your donations to L. A. Jones
Software Co. after filling out your registration
form. See file REGISTER.FRM for a blank form
for the SHAREWARE Distribution Network.
This package contains the files necessary to
build a subdirectory for the game, and help you
install a turbo-charging RAM disk using at least
DOS 2.0 or later. If you have MS-DOS 3.3 Release 1,
you may have problems implementing RAM disk on a 386-based
machine. You may need to request MS-DOS 3.3 Release 2
to fix the bugs in Release 1 of MS-DOS 3.3 for no charge;
otherwise, specify your system disk as your RAM disk
designation in SETUP2 below, which works without RAM disk.
This technique can also be used to slow down the game.
If you are using SETUP1 to install your small
RAM disk, run SETUP1 from your diskette drive and
load to your target drive which should be your
system disk; e.g., SETUP1 A: C: \FOOTBALL
loads football files from a: to c:\football.
After your system is warm-booted and noting
the RAM disk assigned at start-up, run SETUP2
to customize FE.BAT that you must use to execute
football; e.g., run SETUP2 A: C: \FOOTBALL E:
to setup the FE.BAT file, from a: to c:\football
and assign disk e: as your RAM disk. If you have
a 386-based machine and are running MS-DOS 3.3 Release 1,
you must assign your system disk as your RAM disk
designation; e.g., run SETUP2 A: C: \FOOTBALL C:
to setup the FE.BAT file correctly.
If you are on an network, use FOOTDOC.BAT
to send print out of the setup and rules to LPT1.
