Logic by Pygmy Projects
LOGIC README
============
--- INSTALLING THE DEMO
Depack archives on the two disks into the same directory, which will be
the "demo directory" referred to later on. Because the names must comply
to ISO-9660 standard (essentially, PC filenames), you must rename the
file "MUTANTTI.LIB" into "mutantti.library" -- and remember to put it all
lower case!
Example session:
1> cd demos:
1> makedir LOGIC
1> cd LOGIC
1> lha x df0:logic1
[swap the disk]
1> lha x df0:logic2
1> rename MUTANTTI.LIB mutantti.library
--- RUNNING THE DEMO
To run LOGIC, you need the following things:
* 2 megs CHIP is the minimum to run the demo but routines will
work much fast with fastmem. (If you have fastmem, you won't
need as much chipmem as without)
* Run the demo by executing "RUNLOGIC". The script will make
sure proper caches are enabled etc.. The script will make
two assigns; "LOGIC:" into the demo directory and an "Assign
ADD" for "LIBS:" also to the demo directory. (Remember to
be in the directory when executing the script).
1> Execute RUNLOGIC
* NOTE: Make sure the VBR is set to _zero_. Easiest way is to
use a clean boot (IF your VBR is not normally zero). Do this
by booting without startup-sequence.
[I hope this is not necessary anymore, see FIX NOTES]
--- RUNNING LOGIC WITH ONLY 2 MEGS CHIP
Change "LOGIC.EXE" into "LOGICLOW.EXE" from the script (RUNLOGIC). The
demo will not have any sounds in this version. Timing should, however,
be the same.
--- COPYRIGHTS
This production (and screenshots etc) are freely distributable but may
not be used as part of a commercial product (for example a music video)
without a written permission from the authors.
Exclusive CD distribution rights to Assembly '95 organizers.
--- NOTES
"mutantti.library" is a groce modification of "assassin.library" which was
shamelessly adapted for this demo, and this demo only. Therefore, you will
_not_ find any further usage for the library. Best way is to keep it in
the demo directory and use "Assign LIBS: "" ADD" to make it accessible.
"assassin.library" itself has been developed further and we will probably
release it later on.
The demo was finished in a BIG hurry, due to which it is rather strict
about the requirements. If you have missed out something, it will most
probably either crash or flash some funny colors in a forever loop.
Running out of memory will also be revenged :).
--- FIX NOTES
We are not exactly sure how much memory the demo needs to run because we
don't have a stock a1200 to test on. That's why I changed the 1.8 mb
requirement into a warning and you can still try to run the demo, with
possibly bad consequences.
Theoretically the demo should now work with Copyback mode and with a
non-zero VBR. Complain if it doesn't... ;)
