 This install applies to "Dan Dare 3" © 1990 Virgin.

 Requirements:
 -------------
 This install requires WHDLoad to be in the path.
 To install from a different drive than DF0: select installation mode Expert.

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


 Features:
 ---------
 - Full load from HD
 - All OS stuff patched/emulated (AllocMem, file loading etc.)
 - Protectiom removed (disk check)
 - Lots of trainer options added (CUSTOM1/2)
 - High score load/save added (saving disabled if any trainers are used)
 - Interrupt fixed
 - Timing fixed (terminal screen)
 - DMA wait in replayer fixed
 - Keyboard routine rewritten
 - Blitter waits added (x2)
 - NewIcon/RomIcon (created by JHZ)
 - Source code included
 - Quit option that works on 68000 machines (default key is 'Del')


 Another very old patch redone. Protection was incredibly useless as the
 protection check was in an external file, I don't think I have to say more.

 I have emulated all OS routines so the patch doesn't need any Kickstart ROM.
 A lot of trainer options have been added as well which can be selected in
 the WHDLoad splash screen, while the main game is running pressing "Help"
 will open a help screen which shows all available in-game keys. To leave
 this screen press the fire button, you will return to the game then. I think
 this is a pretty convenient approach to deal with the in-game keys. :)
 Speaking of the in-game keys, some of these weren't trivial to add but that
 just made it more entertaining, I really enjoyed adding all the trainer
 options. If any of these are used the high score saving will be disabled!

 All files in the "data" directory can be packed with any of the crunchers
 supported by WHDLoad.

 Enjoy the game from HD.
