This patch is intended to work with the original Lotus version,
floppy or CD32 distribution.

This patch will not work with cracked versions or other
Lotus versions such as Lotus II or Lotus III.

Finally here is this long awaited HD loader + fix. I had planned
this one for ages, and lots of people have been asking for it for
more than 1 year.


FEATURES:

- Full loading of the game from HD
- Uses JOTDStartup to run (available on aminet)
- Convenient installer script, using system-friendly disk ripper for floppy part
- CD32 version supported
- Blitter waits fixed, the game no longer crashes
- Prefetch bugs fixed, the colors in the medium race are now correct
- Possible quit with F5 key at any time
- Possibilty to run the game in NTSC mode for a higher framerate


BUGS:

- There were still some gfx problems (the car sometimes flashes
  red and blue), which are now fixed

- The game dis not like the keyboard too much either, but that seems
  to be fixed too!

- Last version had problems with blitter. In this one it's fixed, but
  the game can slowdown a bit sometimes (noticeable if you've got music on)

MEMORY:

You need 1.5MB of memory to run this game from HD.

TODO:

- Support Lotus II, other Lotus Turbo Challenge versions.
- Save hiscores

Have fun with this legendary game now fixed.
