Short: Gfx-card patch for onEscapee Author: dakos@dragon.klte.hu (Akos Divianszky) & Sadeness Software Uploader: dakos@dragon.klte.hu (Akos Divianszky) Version: 1.06 Type: game/patch Replaces: game/patch/onEscapRTG* Hello everyone! O N E S C A P E E ( R T G ) P A T C H This patch is for the commercial release! ---------------------------------INSTALLATION------------------------------ 1. Installation steps: Run the provided installer script. (about 250K free HD space needed) Run the game from your HD. 2. What screenmodes to choose? You should select modes called Chunky and/or 8bit. Regarding to the size, a low-res(320x256) mode for the game screen, and a hi-res(640x400) for the menu screen. If you don't have a 320x256 mode, but a 320x240 one, I think the bottom edge of the screen won't be displayed. It's not a too big problem, but anyway, create a 320x256 mode, it worth the effort! 2b. Must I use buffered RTG? No, only if you see flickering around moving objects! 3. RTG Speed. On the latest feedback, I can say, that Picasso96 is best for Picasso cards, and CGFX for CyberVision cards. For other cards I really can't say anithing; if you've tried both software on your card, your feedback is welcome! Minimal system req. to get AGA speed is 030-25 with a Z3 card, maybe 030-50 using Z2. Under CGFX you shold set: PLANES2FAST OFF, CPUP2C OFF, MULTIMEDIAMEM ON. Hope you'll like it!
