--- ZOOL ECS Hard Disk Installer ---

This installer requires the Zool ORIGINAL disks (there are 2).
It will not work for cracked versions.

The HD-Patched game will need about 3Mb of memory.
It should work on ALL Kickstarts and ALL CPUs (up to '060).
Report me any bugs you'll find.

I created and tested this package with a A1200/060/50 16Mb, so there should
be no problems for all 680x0 CPUs (caches,chipset...). It degrades display properly
so Multiscan/AGA users won't have any sprite or screen problem.
I tried to preserve KS1.3 compatibility too
(not guaranteed with higher processors than 68000)
The game was also patched for A3000/A4000 users and a tooltype/argument allows
you to force the game to run in PAL or NTSC (Kick2.0 only).


The (original) cheat mode can be activated by typing 'GOLDFISH' in the main menu.
During the game, press:

1 for invincibility (temporary)
2 for levelskip
3 for worldskip
4 for suicide

F10 quits the game.

When the disks are copied during installation, the pointer freezes. That's
normal cause the game uses a custom trackload routine (copy-protection), and
it does not easily multitask. No checks are done to see if you swapped the disks
or not.
If you don't insert disks when prompted, the program will lock the amiga until
you decide to put a disk in.

Version 1.0 crashed on some machines and did not allow to go NTSC (I had a e-mail
from Mexico about a NTSC version of Zool). Now this is fixed.

Version 1.1 had more startup bugs. I hope this is fixed. A quit option exists now too (F10).

If you find some bugs, or the game crashes, please e-mail me (specify your
configuration).
I'm also looking for people who could send me original disks for me to patch them
for 680x0 or write HD-Installers (NOT CRACKED VERSIONS, ONLY ORIGINALS).
E-mail me if you're interested, or if you simply like this installer.

Enjoy this GREAT game from Gremlin Graphics on your HD.
