 This install applies to "Vengeance of Excalibur" © 1992 Virgin.

 Requirements:
 -------------
 This install requires WHDLoad 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 and 0.5 OtherMem
 (+2.7 MB for preload)
 It can be quit by pressing F10 (key can be changed with Tooltype "QuitKey=").

 The game requires an installed A500 Kickstart 1.3 image.
 The kickstart image must be located in the directory "Devs:Kickstarts" and
 must be named "kick34005.A500". The image can be extracted from a A500 with
 tools like 'GrabKick' or similar which can be found on aminet.
 If the image is of wrong version or altered in any way WHDLoad will quit with
 an appropriate message.
 Additionally the file "kick34005.A500.RTB" must be installed in the same
 directory as the kickstart image. It can be found in the archive
 "util/boot/skick346.lha" on aminet.

 Features:
 ---------
 - Full load from HD
 - 3 versions supported (SPS 2499 (English, German, French))
 - Protection removed (manual check)
 - Self-modifying code fixed
 - Intro can be skipped with CUSTOM1
 - POTGO bug fixed (move.w $c00.w,$dff034 -> move.w #$c00,$dff034)
 - 4 NewIcons, 2 OS 3.5+ color icons, RomIcon (one created by me, rest by Irek)
 - Source code included
 - Quit option that works on 68000 machines (default key is 'F10')

 Made this patch quickly after finishing the Spirit of Excalibur patch.
 All hard work had already been done and could be more or less reused here.
 
 Enjoy the game from HD.
