PITMAN FOR SINCLAIR QL
-====================-
There are 2 executables for Sinclair QL:
1. PITMANQ_obj: This is the version for QDOS and runs only in MODE 8
2. PITMAN_obj: This is the version for SMSQ/E and runs in almost all existing modes:
- Mode 4 and Mode 8
- Mode 16 (256 colours, any resolution)
- Mode 32 (QPC2/QXL 65536 colours, any resolution)
- Mode 33 (Q40/Q60/Q68/QIMSI Gold 65536 colours, any resolution)
For best results in modes 16, 32 and 33 please use 512x384 pixel resolution!
The program comes in different media formats:
- mdv image: due to space limitation it contains only the Qdos version and only the graphics needed for mode 8
- flp image: It contains both versions and the graphics for all video modes.
- zip file : It contains both versions and the graphics for all video modes.
How to install the game
-=====================-
You can run the game directly from microdrive or from floppy, or you can copy the game on a directory on the hard drive.
Pitman also needs TOOLKIT2 running on your system.
To start the game use:
On QDOS:
EXEC_W MyPath_pitmanq_obj;"MyPath_"
(replace MyPath_ with the actual path to the game)
If parameter "MyPath_" is missing than it defaults to "flp1_"
On SMSQ/E
EXEC_W MyPath_pitman_obj;"MyPath_"
(replace MyPath_ with the actual path to the game)
If parameter "MyPath_" is missing than it defaults to Home_Dir$
