Roids 1.0 README.TXT


I. Installation

  To install Roids, copy the ROIDS.EXE and the ROIDS.HLP files to your 
games subdirectory.  (I.E. C:\OS2\GAMES)  Create an object for Roids using 
the Program template.  Activate the Program tab in the Settings notebook 
for the new object, and under "Path and file name:" enter the path and 
filename of Roids (I.E. C:\OS2\GAMES\ROIDS.EXE).  Under "Working directory"
enter your games subdirectory (I.E. C:\OS2\GAMES).  
That's all there is to it.

II. Troubleshooting

  If Roids starts behaving strangely or stops working, there are a few 
  things you can try:

  A.  In the Options menu, press the Defaults button.  This resets the 
      ROIDS.INI file.

  B.  If that fails, delete the ROIDS.INI file.  The file will be 
      recreated next time you run Roids.
      
      BE CAREFUL!  If your copy of Roids is registered, make sure you write 
      down your name and User ID EXACTLY as they appear in the Product 
      information window.  Once the ROIDS.INI file has been deleted, Roids 
      will think that it hasn't been registered.  Enter your name and 
      User ID in the Register dialog and all will be well.

  C.  And if THAT fails, ROIDS.EXE is probably corrupted.  Re-install it 
      from the .ZIP file or get another copy somehow.

For further information, see the Roids Help screens.
