Second Guess
Version 1.1 July 10, 1995
Nels Anderson
585 Edmands Road
Framingham, MA 01701 U.S.A.
TO RUN SECOND GUESS YOU WILL NEED THE FOLLOWING:
1) SVGA (SuperVGA) video card capable of 640x480 pixels at 256 colors.
Most suitable video cards are supported by the game and any card that
supports the VESA 1.2 standard should work.
OR:
Any standard VGA card to run the game in 640x480 pixel, 16 color mode.
2) 510k of conventional memory. Out of your 640k of possible low memory
at least 510k must be free for Second Guess to use.
3) 800k of expanded or extended memory. You must have a memory driver
(such as HIMEM.SYS and EMM386.SYS that come with MS-DOS, or something
like QEMM). The game may partially work if you are only a little short
of available memory, but you'll miss some of the graphics features. If
possible make expanded memory available as it is faster than extended.
4) Mouse driver if you wish to use a mouse. Most people will find using a
mouse the most convenient way to play the game. To use a mouse you must
have the mouse driver loaded before starting the game. How this is done
depends on the mouse you own; please see your mouse manual.
TILE SETS:
The game supports two types of tile sets, which can be identified by their
file suffix:
*.TL files: 256 color SVGA tile sets
*.TLV files: 16 color VGA tile sets
Either kind of tile set can be used but in general using the tile sets
that match the video mode you are running will result in better appearing
tiles.
VIDEO PROBLEMS:
If the game does not appear to work (video is messed up) there are two
command line options that may help. Try running the game as follows:
GUESS -Z
or
GUESS -16
Please note that the space after the word "guess" and the dash are
absolutely required for this to work.
WHAT'S NEW:
Better VESA driver support.
16 color standard VGA support.
Backgrounds can now be tiled images in addition to pictures & solid colors.
Small pictures are now tiled when used as backgrounds.
IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS, please read the game instructions! The complete
instructions are in a text file called GUESS.DOC. You can view this file
from with the game itself (under the FILE menu) or with any text file
viewer.
