AIAB Ikari Warriors v1.2 - assembled by Jaybee (re-uploaded in 2001!) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This game was originally on the AIAB site way back when it used to be at ClassicGaming.com. Then, when I was moving to EmuUnlim.com, and I wanted everything to be legal and squeeky -clean, I decided to remove the games that I didnt have permission to use - this included Ikari Warriors, which was part of the original 'HD-Games' pack. Anyway, the other day I found a link to the UK 'Epic' (the original distributors) website, and have written to them requesting permission to use the game online. If they reply, asking me to remove it, I will of course oblige, however if they dont...well, it'll stay online ;) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Whats It All About.....now? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Hi there AmigaInABox peeps! Here is another AmigaInABox classic games upgrade - Ikari Warriors. Im not going to pretend this is an 'all time classic Amiga game' because it frankly is not. Its just a bit of fun, and should get the nostalgia pumping around those vains for half an hour or so - especially if you play with an equally reminiscent friend ;) Im assuming this is a port from an arcade game, since its credited to SNK (as in NeoGeo), so diehard fans can no doubt emulate the original arcade roms in Mame or something similar. Anyway, thanks for this one go to John Girvin for writing the WHDload slave. To play, just use a HD-Games configuration in WinUAE, boot the Amiga, and double-click the game icon. The installer adds ultra-quick loading and, an F10 quitkey, and even a built-in trainer! --------================-------- Tips: - Have a go at playing this game *without* the trainer first - its really tough, ~~~~ but after a few plays you'll begin to get pretty good! - Enter empty tanks by walking over them and holding fire, but dont stay in too long! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- History: ~~~~~~~ v1.0 - Part of the original 'HD-Games' archive, from years ago. Used Galahad's (of FLT) custom loader...wasn't too bad! v1.1 - Re-uploaded as a separate game archive in early 2001. Switched to Keith Krellwitz's JST loader - nice. v1.2 - Switched to John Girvin's WHDload slave (with trainer) Removed 'Cheats' textfile. Updated this readme a bit, ammending Uni email address etc. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Installation: ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Just extract this zipfile to exactly the same place you extracted the first AIAB.zip file, overwriting any files when prompted. Simple, huh? No? Well okay, imagine AIAB is installed in C:\WinUAE, you would have to extract this archive to C:\ Cya! James Maurice Battle - j.m.battle@bradford.ac.uk - http://aiab.emuunlim.com
