                            4/29/96


---- WELCOME --------------------------------------------------

the Titanic demo, installation instructions, a quick overview 
of how to play, a list of known problems and trouble-shooting
tips, and information on contacting technical support.


---- NOTES FOR CERTAIN USERS ----------------------------------

If you're using a screensaver:
     All screensaving programs should be disabled before 
     installing and playing Titanic.

If you have a PowerBook 540c:
     Be advised that there are sound-compatibility problems 
     with the Powerbook 540c.

If you have a Mobius Excellerator:
     Titanic is not compatible with Mobius Excellerators.

If you have a Media Vision or non-Macintosh sound card:
     Titanic is compatible only with Macintosh sound cards.


---- SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS --------------------------------------

Titanic requires a color Macintosh or better, 8MB of RAM (6MB 
available), a 256 color monitor, a hard drive, a double speed
or faster CD-ROM drive, and System 6.03 or later.

NOTE: This pre-release demo version of Titanic requires 12MB of
memory (8MB available).  We are currently tightening up memory
requirements and the release version will run on a 8MB Mac.   


---- INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS --------------------------------

To install Titanic, simply copy the Titanic folder from the 
Macworld 02/97 CD to your hard drive by dragging it to the hard 
drive icon on your desktop.  Once copied to your hard drive, you 
may rename the folder if you wish.  Do not change the names of 
any files inside the Install folder, or Titanic may not work
properly!

---- QUICK OVERVIEW -------------------------------------------

     After starting the demo you will see an opening movie 
followed by a screen that gives you three options.  Clicking on 
the first button will send you to the "Trailer" section of the 
demo.  This is a brief overview of the entire game.  Clicking on 
the second button will send you to the "Interactive" section of 
the demo.  Here your boss will give you a mission and you must 
explore the ship to solve it.  You can save your game at any 
time during the "Interactive" section. Clicking on the third 
button will send you to the "Slideshow" section of the demo.  
This is a collection of screen shots from the actual game 
"Titanic: Adventure Out of Time".


---- TROUBLESHOOTING TIPS -------------------------------------

Tip 1:
     Watch out for extensions that take up lots of memory or 
     cause other problems.  Extensions (also called INITs) are
     small programs that install themselves when your system 
     boots up. To turn off an extension, you must remove the 
     extension file from your system folder and restart your 
     machine.  Titanic is compatible with most extensions, so 
     experiment to see if you can identify which one is causing 
     the problem.  The only extensions that Titanic requires are 
     the CD-ROM driver that came with your CD-ROM drive and the 
     Memory extension, so do not turn those off!

Tip 2:
     Anytime your computer is acting strangely, we suggest that 
     you restart the machine.  Be sure it is off when connecting 
     SCSI cables or other hardware.

Tip 3: 
     Titanic offers extra features, speed, and sound when there 
     is plenty of RAM.  Titanic will also take advantage of extra 
     hard-disk space.  Machines with 68030 and higher processors 
     will display smoother arcade animation than 68020 machines. 
     For these reasons, Titanic may operate differently on 
     different machines.  Overall game play is not affected by 
     these differences. 
 
Titanic doesnŐt have enough memory to start:
     - Be sure that you are not running any other applications.  
     For example, donŐt run a spreadsheet and Titanic at the 
     same time.
     - Check the control panels that handle memory.  Be sure 
     the RAM cache is off or as small as possible.  Be sure your 
     computer is in 32-bit mode if possible (24-bit machines 
     can access only 8 MB of RAM).  Virtual Memory should be 
     off as well.
     - Check for extensions that hog memory (see Tip 1 above).
     Extensions that add sounds or graphics to your system 
     take up lots of RAM.
     - Titanic must have at least 6 MB to run.  A Macintosh with 
     8192K (8 MB) memory usually allocates no more than 1500K 
     to the System software, which should leave 6692K free for 
     Titanic.  If your System software takes up more than 1500K 
     and you only have 8 MB total then you should disable some 
     of your extensions.  

Titanic runs slowly:
     - Check your extensions (see Tip 1 above).  Extensions 
     that run networks or implement screen savers are sometimes 
     quite slow.
     - Give Titanic more RAM.  Titanic will use all available 
     RAM for caching and other speed and sound enhancements.
     - Check the performance of your CD-ROM drive. Most drives 
     have an access time of at least 250 milliseconds or faster, 
     and a data transfer rate of 300 K per second or faster.

My screen is too dark:
     - You can adjust the brightness of your screen while playing 
     Titanic by pressing the F1 key to brighten and F2 to darken.  
     If the colors in Titanic seem slightly wrong, you can change 
     the color balance by using F3/F4 to adjust the red, F5/F6 to 
     adjust the green, and F7/F8 to adjust the blue.  If you want 
     to reset the color balance to the default setting, press F9.

I canŐt hear the sound:
     - Command-0 through Command-9 will set the sound volume. 
     Be sure that the volume has not been accidentally set to 
     zero.
     - If the external speaker jack is in use, the MacŐs 
     internal speaker will be deactivated.  Turn on the external 
     speaker or remove the jack.
     - Try saving the game and restarting your computer.  If 
     problems persist, please call Cyberflix technical support.

Titanic bombs or crashes:
     - Maybe your CD-ROM disk is dirty.  Look at the disk in a 
     strong light for any scratches or oily fingerprints that 
     may be there.  Clean the disk with mild soapy water, dry 
     gently with a Kleenex (do not scratch!), and try again. 
      - Some CD-ROM drives have trouble reading disks.  The 
     problem could be an old version of your CD-ROM driver 
     extension.  Get a new version from your CD-ROM dealer. 
     Another problem is that some CD-ROM drives overheat or 
     misread data.
     - Check extensions (see Tip 1 above).
     - If problems persist, please call Cyberflix technical 
     support.
