Strategy War Sim for DOS or Windows

Unpacking the archive:
-Just create a directory on your hard drive and unzip the download into it.
Close up your .zip extraction program.

-DblClick on grandflt.exe (This will extract the game into a directory called /grandflt under the location that you have chosen).

-The game is currently set to use the Soundblaster sound drivers at address 220 irq 5 dma 3.  Run SETUP.BAT to configure the sound and graphics if the info above does not fit your system.

The configuration program will offer to auto-detect your sound card, but it
doesn't always find the right card/settings. You can always choose to do the
configuartion yourself and select the correct settings.
After you've made your selections, a test routine will run to see if you can
hear sounds & music.

Playing the game:
Run GFLEET.EXE to start the game.
At the copy protection screen just hit the Enter key.

If you encounter problems running the game:
There are several command line switches you can use; see the READ.ME file
that was provided by the game distributors for more information on this.
If the text appears garbled and none of the command line perimeters helps, it
may be due to and incompatabilty with newer graphics cards that don't support
8x14 font. Check the FAQ page at HOTU for links to programs that may be able
to correct this. - http://www.theunderdogs.org/faq.php

If you have a ATI Mach64 based video card, the included atifont.com program should fix the problem noted above.  If you are playing in Real DOS mode, execute atifont.com before starting gfleet.exe.  If you are playing from within Windows, open a DOS box, execute atifont.com, and then execute gfleet.exe from the *same* DOS window.

Have fun!
