     At last ... Here it is, the final version of UNTITLED. To take part in
     the  demo-competition at  THE PARTY III  in Herning/Denmark  last year
     after Xmas,  we had to  PRE-release  the demo which  still contained a
     lot of bugs and could only be executed if you had a Gravis Ultrasound.
     Now,  Soundblaster PRO  and  Soundblaster Mono are supported, as well.
     We have tried to eliminate all kinds of bugs and fixed some graphicial
     disorders. Now the demo should work properly. We hope you enjoy it !



     This demonstration is FREEWARE. You are allowed to copy and distribute
     it as long as no changes are made to it. You may NOT SELL it or charge
     anything   for   copying  it.   Generally,  any  kind  of   commercial
     reproduction without  our permission is  strictly  forbidden !  Please
     contact us, if you would like to do the above.



          UNTITLED should have reached you with the following files :

 ═════════════════════════╝║ System Requirements ║╚═══════════════════════════
                           ╚═════════════════════╝


- 386 Processor, preferably a 486

- Gravis UltraSound (512KB), Soundblaster Pro, Soundblaster or compatibles
  Soundcards are not really necessary; you can run UNTITLED without sound.

- approximately 544KB of Base Memory plus 2360KB of XMS; Soundblaster users
  will need another 24KB of Base Memory and 512KB of XMS in addition to that.

  Since we use Extended Memory (XMS), you will have to remove any Expanded
  Memory Manager (e.g. EMM386, QEMM).

 ═══════════╝║ How to Get The Sound Started / Environment Settings ║╚═════════
             ╚═════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝

      In order to get the sound to work on your system, the program needs
      the setting(s) for the sound card(s) from your environment block.
      If you install a sound-card on your system, this is usually done
      automatically (almost everyone has this in his AUTOEXEC.BAT file, but
      it is used only very rarely by programs). The reason for this kind of
      autodetection is that normal autodetection routines fail in local
      networks. If you should not have those settings you'll have to insert
      them into your AUTOEXEC.BAT file, or just type the one you need
      before you run the demo (examples):

      - Soundblaster (Mono & Pro): SET BLASTER=A220 I7 D1 T4
                                   (Soundblaster using PORT#220h, IRQ7, DMA1)
      - Gravis UltraSound:         SET ULTRASND=240,3,3,11,5
                                   (UltraSound using PORT#240, DMA3, IRQ11)

 ═════════════════╝║ Running The Demo In An Endless Loop ║╚═══════════════════
                   ╚═════════════════════════════════════╝



      If you  want to run the  demo in an endless loop,  for example at an
      exhibition (in order to  attract people),  you can do the following:
      The program contains a  special parameter ("/ns")  which can be used
      to skip the setup-screen. The demo will then start with the dungeon.
      A simple batch-file could execute it endlessly.

      Example (type the following lines at your DOS-prompt):

        COPY CON UNT_ENDL.BAT

        :endless
        UNTITLED /NS
        goto endless

        ^Z           (press either F6 or "control" & "z" at the same time)

      Your batch-file will then consist of  the three lines in the middle;
      you can of course also use a normal text-editor.
