Install-Script & HD-loader © 1997-2000 Jean-François FABRE

Ruff'n'Tumble is ©1994 Renegade.

--- Ruff'n'Tumble Hard Disk Installer and Fix ---

This installer requires the Ruff'n'Tumble ORIGINAL disks (there are 2).


MEMORY REQUIREMENTS:

1MB of chip and 2MB of fast memory
OR
512K of chip and 2MB of 24 bit fast memory (location $00xxxxxx, e.g $200000-$400000)

I'm sorry but the game needs 1MB of 24 bit memory. Users with 512K of chip and 32 bit
fastmem cannot run the game (they could not with the floppy version either)

FEATURES:

- Full HD load of the game
- Convienient installer script
- Patch for 32 bit CPUs: Crashes removed and GFX are displayed properly (15 patches per world !)
- Access faults removed (1 per world)
- Uses JST (not included)
- Quit key (F10)
- Level skipper (Help)

COMMENTS:

Well, a very good game, but totally unusable with a 32 bit CPU such as a 68030, 68040 or 68060,
even without 32 bit fastmem. A shame in 1994, the year this game was released.

I tested the game intensively, so it should work OK.

This game is really great in terms of graphics, speed, sound and playability. It really
deserves this patch. I hope you'll enjoy it.

If you've installed it before, just rename the files called Ruff.disk1, Ruff.disk2 in
Ruff.d1, Ruff.d2.

DISTRIBUTION:

This patch can be distributed freely, but I'd appreciate that you drop me a line
if you include it in a coverdisk or PD collection.

However, FFD (France Festival Distribution) is not allowed to include it in any
of its PD disks (if you read usenet in fr.comp.sys.amiga, you'll know why).
It's the only exception for the distribution.
