AIAB Pinball Dreams Assembled by Jaybee - 20th October '99 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ NB: This archive was intended for use with the AIAB-2000 r5 archive! Whats It All About.....now? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Hurrah! Another new game upgrade! This time its Pinball Dreams, courtesy of the wonderful Digital Illusions. Check out thier website at http://www.dice.se Another classic Amiga game, working more or less flawlessly, this game created a whole new genre of software on the Amiga. The whole package oozed professionalism, from the classy, colourfull graphics, super-silky smooth scrolling, magnificent music & soundFXm, to the 'just one more go' playability - which really came into its own when you had some friends over (a total of eight players!). As per usual, this AIAB game upgrade uses a JST loader to run from HD in seconds, not only that but highscores are saved automatically, and the game will quit back to Workbench if the 'escape' key is pressed in the main-menu. --------================-------- A few notes about this one, I mentioned that the game has really slick, fast scrolling.... well, if your PC is anything like mine (a P233) you might need to play with a frameskip, to prevent the sound breaking up. I've included two config-files for WinUAE, run running the game fullscreen (in 400x300) the other in a Window (320x256 - ie: proper PAL)....this gave me the smoothest scrolling, but you might want to play around with it yourself. Finally, at the time of writing, WinUAE 0.8.8r8, whilst supporting AGA resolutions, has certain aspects of OCS/ECS broken, notably modes which use more than 32 colours at a time, causing the palette of this game incorrectly. To remedy this, you'll need to select an AGA display in the WinUAE config, which will unfortunately slow down the emulation. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Installation ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Just extract this zipfile to exactly the same place you extracted the first AIAB-2000.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 - jaybee@aiab.freeserve.co.uk - http://www.emuunlim.com/aiab
