 This install applies to "Microprose Soccer" © 1989 Microprose.

 Requirements:
 -------------
 This install requires WHDLoad and DIC to be in the path.
 These programs can be found in the WHDLoad package.
 To install from a different drive than DF0: select installation mode Expert.

 The installed game requires 0.5 MB ChipMem (+0.9 MB OtherMem for preload).
 It can be quit by pressing F10 (key can be changed with Tooltype "QuitKey=").



 Features:
 ---------
 - Full load from HD
 - 2 versions supported (SPS 1078 and another one)
 - Protection removed (Copylock)
 - Timing fixed (Indoor Soccer), fix can be disabled with CUSTOM2
 - Interrupts fixed
 - DMA wait in replayer fixed (x2)
 - Blitter waits added (x50, 68010+ only)
 - Blitter wait patches can be forced on 68000 machines with CUSTOM1
 - DMA and interrupt settings fixed
 - Load/Save support
 - Keyboard routine fixed
 - NewIcon and ROM icon (created by JHZ)
 - Source code included as usual
 - Quit option that works on 68000 machines (default key is 'F10')

 Another very old patch which needed an update and has now been redone
 by yours truly. The old patch only supported one version and crashed
 if an unsupported version was installed and had a few other problems.
 This has all been fixed now. Supported is the SPS 1078 version and
 another one which has no SPS release yet.

 I have also fixed a major bug in the Indoor Soccer game, it was
 unplayable on fast machines as there wasn't any timing at all. If you
 have a slow machine you can disable the timing fix with CUSTOM2=1.

 Blitter waits had to be added too, these are only installed on 68010+
 machines, to force the blitter wait patches on 68000 machines use
 CUSTOM1=1.
 
 Enjoy the game from HD, I was quite disappointed with the Amiga
 version back then as I expected it to be at last as good as the
 C64 version which I really enjoyed but it wasn't. Still an enjoyable
 football game but, as so often, the C64 version is much better!
