--- Alien Breed II AGA Hard Disk Installer ---

This installer requires the Alien Breed II AGA ORIGINAL disks (there are 3).

The HD-Patched game will need about 5Mb of memory.
It should work on ALL Kickstarts and ALL CPUs (up to '060).
Report me any bugs you'll find.

During game, press F10 to return to workbench.

For the moment, high-scores are only saveable on floppy.
I'll try to correct the bug which prevents me to make a correct HD save.

Note: 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 users won't have any sprite or screen problem.
The game was also patched for NTSC users.

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 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 for cracked versions)
E-mail me if you're interested, or if you simply like this installer.


** This patch is freely distributable excepted for france festival distribution **

Enjoy this GREAT game from Team 17 on your HD.

Jeff
