This install applies to "Beastlord" © 1993 Grandslam.
Requirements:
-------------
This install requires WHDLoad and RawDIC 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 512k ChipMem and 512k OtherMem (+880k for Preload).
It can be quit by pressing F10 (key can be changed with Tooltype "QuitKey=").
Features:
---------
- Full load from HD
- Load/Save supported
- Automatic creation of save disk (see below)
- Possibility to skip the intro (CUSTOM1=1)
- Decruncher relocated to fast memory
- Keyboard handler added
- Trainers added (CUSTOM3=x, see below)
- NewIcon (created by me, if you have better icons feel free to send them)
- All sources included
- Quit option that works on 68000 machines (default key is 'F10')
Here's the patch for Beastlord which I redid from scratch since the old patch
by Mr.Larmer didn't support load/save. Thanks to Haynor for reporting this
problem. I also added a lot of other features too.
The intro can be skipped with CUSTOM1=1.
If no save disk (disk.3) is found it will be created by the slave, you can
disable this feature with CUSTOM2=1.
If you already have a save disk you can install it using the install package,
just select the appropriate option. You can either install the game only,
the game and a save disk or a save disk only.
To enable trainers use the CUSTOM3 tooltype. Available trainers are:
- unlimited health (CUSTOM3=1)
- unlimited strength (CUSTOM3=2)
- unlimited vitality (CUSTOM3=4)
- in-game keys (CUSTOM3=8)
If you enable in-game keys you can use the following keys:
s - full strength
h - full health
v - full vitality
x - see end
To enable more than one option just add the numbers for the trainers you want to
enable. For example, if you want to enable unlimited health and in-game keys
you need to set CUSTOM3 to 9 (1+8). CUSTOM3=15 will enable all trainers
(1+2+4+8). I may code a trainer menu that runs inside WHDLoad later.
