Thank you for purchasing Rules of Engagement 2.  There are a few last minute
changes and updates that may not be documented in your Manual.  Please read
the following information before playing the game.

 1)     Optimum Memory Configurations
-------------------------------------

   Since Rules of Engagement 2 makes use of both EMS and XMS, the following
   chart will help clarify the optimum configuration given the total
   available RAM in your system.  First, look up your configuration in the
   "Total RAM" column.

   The XMS and EMS values are the suggested amounts of each type of memory
   you should make available.  See the documentation for your memory manager
   (HIMEM, QEMM, 386MAX, etc.) for instructions.  Some memory managers allow
   you to create a "pool" of memory that can provide both XMS and EMS on
   demand.  If your memory manager has this feature, you need not worry
   about specific XMS and EMS amounts.

   The value for Smartdrive shows the suggested value for any disk cache
   software you are using (Smartdrv, PC Cache, etc.)

   Under SF/X and Speech is indicated the level of sound effects and
   digitized speech you will obtain.


	Total RAM	XMS	EMS	Disk cache 	SF/X	   Speech
	-----------------------------------------------------------------
	Under 1mb	N/A	N/A	Do not load	Normal	   None
	1mb		1mb	0mb	256K		Extended   None
	2mb		512K    1.5mb   100K		Extended   None
	3mb             1.5mb   512K    256K		Extended   Enabled
	4mb		2.5mb	1.5mb	1mb		Extended   Enabled
	>4mb		2.5+mb	1.5mb	1mb		Extended   Enabled

   Note that these are recommended configurations.  It is not necessary to
   alter your system to match these values.  It will, however, provide a
   combination of the best speed and most sound for the given amount of RAM.

   If you use disk caching software with a write cache enabled, you may
   encounter a problem where the music in the game slows down slightly.
   You can solve this problem by turning off the write cache.  If you do
   want to leave the write cache on, it will not cause any other problems.
   


 2)     Notes on Using PC Animate Plus
--------------------------------------

   If you are using PC Animate Plus to create your own animation, you should
   be sure to set the AUTO START, PLAY ONCE, and HIDE FIRST options when
   saving the file.

   If you are creating a large animation that may take some time to load,
   you can create a "Please Stand By..." style frame and place it in frame
   one.  Then, by clearing the HIDE FIRST flag, this frame will be displayed
   while the rest of the animation is loading.



 3)     Pro Audio Spectrum
--------------------------

   If you are using a Pro Audio Spectrum sound card, be sure the Media
   Vision MVSOUND.SYS driver is loaded before playing the game.



 4)     Mines and Enemy Ships
-----------------------------

   Contrary to any statement you may run across in the manual, enemy ships do
   have the capability for laying mines.

   

 5)     Bypassing the Opening Title Sequence
--------------------------------------------

   You may bypass the opening title sequence by pressing any key or clicking
   one of the mouse buttons while the "Impressions" logo is on the screen.

   Once the titles begin loading, you cannot stop them until the sequence
   begins.  Once running, you may press the ESC key to bypass.



 6)     Ordering Your Copy of PC Animate Plus

   you may order a copy directly from Pacific Motion.  As an owner of Rules

 7)     Changes to the Tutorial
-------------------------------

   A title screen and animation were added to the tutorial campaign.  When

   button once the title screen for the campaign appears.  This will happen
   at the tutorial section "Playing Your First Game", immediately after
   pressing the PLAY (P) button.
