Space for direct or indirect profit by any means, except through express 
written agreement with Software Dynamics, inc. In all cases, you must 
abide by the following to distribute Inner Space:

INSTALLING
You must first be in the Windows environment to install Inner Space.
A) If you receive Inner Space as a compressed INSPACE.ZIP file:
	1) Unzip INSPACE.ZIP in a temporary directory. If INSPACE.ZIP is on 
	a CD or a floppy disk, you will need to first copy it to a temporary 
	directory that you create on your hard disk.
	2) Run SETUP.EXE, the Inner Space installer.  
	3) Install Inner Space to a new directory (C:\SPACE by default) or 
	over an existing copy of Inner Space to upgrade it.
B) If you receive Inner Space on floppy disk or CD as a group of files 
including SETUP.EXE:
	1) Run SETUP.EXE, the Inner Space installer.  
	2) Install Inner Space to a new directory (C:\SPACE by default) or 
	over an existing copy of Inner Space to upgrade it.

STARTING TO PLAY
Run Inner Space (INSPACE.EXE) from Windows.  During the game intro, press 
'ESC' to start a new game. Select a ship to fly into Inner Space.  To start
playing, just use the arrow keys (Thrust=UP, Turn=LEFT, RIGHT, Brake=DOWN). 
Use Shift or SPACEBAR to shoot. For more information about the game, see the 
online help (press F1 or F2).

SCREEN SAVERS 
Inner Space comes with a configurable screen saver interface so that a 
changing game demonstration can be your screen saving display. 

SHIP FACTORY
With the Ship Factory, you can compare the characteristics of all the ships 
in the game and also make custom ships for use in Inner Space!

TECH SUPPORT
We provide tech suppport by fax, email, and regular mail. Bugs reported via 
email receive top priority and make it easiest both for you to give us specific 
information on the problem and for us to get backto you in a timely manner. 

If you have Internet access, go to our website for tech support at
http://www.cadvision.com/Home_Pages/accounts/inspace/tech.htm. Our website
contains answers to most technical questions and allows you to send email to
tech support. If you have access to CompuServe, GO GAMDPUB and look in section 18 
(Software Dynamics) for Inner Space upgrades, hints, and technical support. Keeping 
users happy with the game is top priority for us since Inner Space is shareware. 
We do not make any money when you download or try the game, only if you choose 
to order it and recommend that your friends order it, too. Please appreciate
that it took years to develop the game and we work hard all the time to 
test and improve it, as well as field questions from users.

We're really sorry when anyone experiences a problem with the game and we'll
work hard to fix it. Before releasing any version of Inner Space, we rigorously 
test it. Some users still experience problems because there are so many 
combinations of computers, video drivers, sound drivers, and operating 
system versions, and there are so many things you could do in the game.  

If you report a bug to us, we will do our best to fix it, but keep in mind
that the problem may occur because of an incompatible sound or video card, 
some other software running on your computer, or it could be a bug
that depends on a subtle sequence of events. We will be more inclined and 
more capable to fix your bug if you tell us all the details about what you
did in the game, exactly where it crashed, and provide as much detail as 
possible about your computer.

A user might tell us "I ran it and it crashed." Obviously, such a bug
report doesn't help us fix it.  Upon further questioning, the user might
indicate that what they meant was that 1 time out of 1000, the game crashed
right after selecting a ship in the intro.  With that, we at least have a
specific part of the game to look at, but it's hard to repeat the problem.  
If the user then told us a sequence of events that would make it crash every
time, we could probably repeat the problem here.  Any problem we can 
repeat, we can and will fix.

If you report a bug to us, it didn't show up in our testing and we can't fix 
it unless you tell us how to repeat it here. Also, please do not call the 
order line to report bugs. We provide unlimited tech support by email, fax, 
or our main voice number, but the toll free line is for orders only. We 
will do everything possible to fix reported bugs, especially when users are
considerate and provide the information we need to work on a fix.  


REGISTERED USERS
If you are updating a registered copy of the game, please follow the install
instructions.  The updater should update the game to the latest version and 
preserve the registered status of the game.

However, we do not guarantee that specific upgrades will work for all
users.  After installing the upgrade, if the game seems to be unregistered, 
reinstall from your master disk and the game should be registered again.  
Try to update it again. If the updater again makes the game unregistered, 
reinstall from your master disk and do not try the update again.  In such 
a case, we will replace your master disk for free, provided you send your 
master disk back and pay the shipping cost to send out a new master disk 
with the latest version ($4 USD).

MEMORY
If the game halts with an error such as a General Protection Fault, the 
game will probably not run correctly until you restart Windows. It may 
be that Windows is low on memory.  Please check that Windows is set up to 
use at least 2Mb of virtual memory.  To see or change Virtual Memory settings, 
open the "386 Enhanced" item from the Windows Control Panel (CONTROL.EXE).
 
VIDEO DRIVERS
There may be problems with some video cards. We can devise workarounds for 
such cards if we know about the problem. If there is a crash or error when 
the game is loading graphics, please try to reproduce the problem and tell 
us so that we can get working on a fix. 

WINDOWS 95 AND OTHER WINDOWS VERSIONS
Inner Space is tested with the current commercial Windows versions. However, 
new prerelease versions of Windows may not be completely compatible with older 
versions and that can cause problems. At the time of this writing, Windows 95 
is not finished, but many users have copies of it.  Inner Space works well 
with Windows 95 generally, but some sound or video drivers need to be updated 
to work properly with Win 95. If the sound or video drivers are out of date, 
the game could be adversely affected.  Prerelease Win versions (such as Win95 
currently is) are experimental. 

MIDI MUSIC
If Inner Space's music has incorrect or missing instruments, check your MIDI 
mapper settings (in Windows Control Panel).  For Enhanced midi sound cards, use 
channels 1-10, Basic midi sound cards use channels 11-16.

NO SOUND
You need a Windows-compatible sound card to hear Inner Space's audio.  If 
you have a sound card that works with other Windows apps, but don't hear any
audio in Inner Space, you may have an older sound card which might not 
report itself correctly to Windows.  Therefore, to force Inner Space to play 
audio, add "AllowSound=1" to your [Inner Space] section of INSPACE.INI (in 
your Windows directory).

VARIOUS SOUND PROBLEMS
Inner Space uses the Windows wavemixer to play up to 8 sounds at once.  The
wavemixer is from Microsoft and not compatible with all systems.  If you get
an error referencing wavemix or the sounds start and stop in a jerky way, set
the MixChannels to 1 (in Game Setup, Audio subdialog) so that sound is played
without using the wavemixer.

DEINSTALLING
If you need to deinstall Inner Space, just delete the Inner Space directory and
all files and subdirectories of it (C:\SPACE by default).  Also, make sure Inner
Space is not set as the screen saver (in Windows Control Panel).  Set the screen
saver to "None" or any other saver display to keep Windows from trying to use 
Inner Space as a screen saver.
