ABOUT.TXT

Welcome!

   Welcome, once again, to another great release of Twilight!

   There are still two versions of the Windows menu, a 32-bit version for
 Windows 95/NT (MENU95.EXE) and a 16-bit version for Windows 3.x (MENU311.EXE).
   We hope you'll all enjoy this great collection of software!

The Wares

  To be able to fit as many games as possible on two CD's, we have compressed
nearly all games; Most of them are already big enough! Fortunately, uncompressing
these games is extremely easy from the Twilight menu. Just select the drive where
you want it to go and click Install. And the game of your choice is uncompressed,
a shortcut created (if you want) in the "Twilight" group and you're ready to go.

  As for applications, we try put on as many as possible uncompressed for easy
installation. Practically every application has its own setup/installation-utility,
Installation can be performed directly from the menu for all those applications
that are not compressed. In those cases clicking the Install button will directly
start the setup/installation-utility from the menu. For most applications that do
not have a setup program a shortcut can be created, also in the "Twilight" group.

Note: to make it easy for you to catalogue, print or whatever a file LIST.TXT
      is included in the Menu directory. In this file you will find the
      the games and applications that are on the CD.

Betas?!

  A beta-version of a game or application is a rare thing on Twilight. However,
sometimes we decide to put one on; We keep the following rules in mind deciding
whether to do so or not:
   - The program should have an extreme appeal to a lot of people.
   - It's stable (we test it as accurately as possible);
   - The full version is scheduled for release sometime near the End Of Time.
   - it is called Windows 98 Beta and release number is 18

The Various section

 When compiling these CDs, we come across a lot of files which were not suitable
  for inclusion in the main list. However, we figured that these files might be of
  interest to many people since these usually include trainers, cracks, fixes, solves,
  docs,utilities and usefull things. We selected the most interesting files and put them
  together in the Various-directory of the CDs.  Please note though, that we did NOT
  check any of these files (except those that are mentioned in the Release Info,
  games and apps descriptions)! A list of all files in the Various-directory with a
  short description (in most cases just the full name of the program) can be viewed
  by selecting the various tab in the menu. You can extract the file to a directory
  of your choice by clicking the install button, after which a directory selectbox
  will pop-up. Use to explore button if you want to know more about a particular various
  entry (make sure you have WinZip or something alike installed).

  The various list contains the names of the programs, if you need it the name of the
  ZIP file is displayed in the description box.

  Note: the various directory also contains a file VARIOUS.LST which you can use
     for your easy reference, printing or whatever.

The Twilight Installer/Menu

 The Twilight Installer enables you to easily select and unpack a program. Some
  of its features are:
   - Online Help-Service (you're reading it)
   - Screenshot-viewing
   - Auto-checking for free diskspace
   - Paste&Copy serial numbers
   - View contents of previous releases
   - Install programs from previous releases
   - View screenshots from previous releases
   - Create shortcuts in the Start Menu!
   - Explore directories and files using your own favorite viewer
   - Set your own preferences

  When you have selected a program you want to install click on the install button.
  If it is program that is packed it will be extracted to drive you selected using
  the drive selector which will also indicate if you have enough free space on that
  drive. When you selected a program that is not packed on the CD then the apropriate
  setup program will be launched. In some cases you have to extract to a directory
  that is specific to your system, you then will be prompted with a directory selector.

 When you browse through the list the screenshots will automatically appear. If a
  title has more than one screenshot you can view them using the "Cycle" button.

 By clicking on the numbers in that are in the upper graphics box you can
  view the contents of previous releases.

 Some (mostly windows applications) require you to fill in a serial number during
  or after installation. If so then the serial number is included in the description
  of the program. Use you're mouse to select it and then press Ctrl-C to copy it into
  the clipboard buffer. When prompted for the serial number make sure the cursor is
  active in the right box and press Ctrl-V to paste the number from the clipboard.
  This will save you remembering or writing down the serial number.

 If you want to take a look at the contents of a directory or zipfile
  before installing or if you need to copy some crack or something directly
  from the CD you can press the Explore button. In case the selected program
  resides in its own directory an explorer window containing that directory will
  be opened. If the program resides in a ZIP file the program that YOU have
  associated with zipfiles will be started (eg. WinZip). This is also a very
  handy method to quickly get more information about the programs in the
  Various section.

 You can set preferences by right-clicking anywhere on the menu. There you can
  adjust the default drive that is used for installation eg. if you always install
  to drive D, set it to D and you will never have to touch the drive box again!
  Change shortcut creation, options are Ask (default), Never and Always.

   Diskspace

 The installer will automatically check if there's enough free diskspace on the
  selected harddisk. If a program that is unpacked needs additional installation then
  the required size that is indicated is that of the -intermediate- files, not the
  final installation, so you will always have enough space to unpack.
  Applications that are installed using their custom installation-program quite often
  offer a variety of different installation-options, the size that is indicated is the
  size that is required for a Typical, Default or common installation. For an application
  that is stored in compressed format on the CD the size of the decompressed/intermediate
  installation is indacated. Required diskspace is indicated for uncompressed drives which
  are at least 1 Gig in size, for compressed drives and smaller ones (less slack space
  due to clustering) needed space will be less.

Twilight Easy Installation

 We try to keep it as simple as possible for you to use/install programs. Some programs
  do however need a special instalation procedure or serial numbers etc. We provide
  information about serial numbers, special install instructions etc. in the description
  of the program in the menu, PLEASE DO READ IT! (and read it through to the BOTTOM, there
  is a SCROLLBAR!)

Software Testing

 We tested ALL programs on a couple of different systems with totally different
  configurations (CPU, Memory, Network, Harddisk, OS, etc.). We have found all programs
  to work perfectly, but it is possible that you run into trouble.  If you do, please
  read the Troubleshooting-section later on.  There are millions of different PCs out
  there...  Some people told us that they couldn't get certain games to work. Once again
  we say that all games work on our machines. So if a game doesn't run, first read
  the complete description of the program in the menu (you might have overlooked some
  special install instructions) next check for a DOCS&NFOTL.TXT to see if there are hints
  for installing and running a program. If the Troubleshooting-section didn't help either,
  then it's probably not our fault but the programmers of the game's problem! Some people
  are still forgetting to read all the information we provide, please read it before you
  decide a game doesn't run. If you did find something that is our fault or up to us to
  fix, just let us know (tlcd@ThePentagon.com)

Operating System indication

 With each game or application the OS it runs on is given. Below an explanation
  of the types used (they are pretty self explanatory though):

     - DOS, this is a native DOS program. It is possible that it will run in a DOS
            box under Windows on your system. What it says is that we encountered
            problems running this program under Windows with at least one of the
            machines we tested on.
     - Win95, this is a Windows program that will run in Windows 95, don't bother
            trying this if you're still using Windows 3.x.
            Though not indicated this program will most likely run in Windows NT,
            this is however not tested.
     - DOS/Win95, this is either a dual program, ie two versions are supplied, one for
            each OS or it is a DOS based program that will run in a Windows DOS box.
     - Win95/NT, will run on both, 95 and NT.
     - Windows, program that will run on Windows 3.x and Windows 95.
     - Win311, huh?

Virus Checking

 We have performed virus-checking with the latest versions of:

     - McAfee Scan;
     - F-Prot;
     - Dr Solomon's Toolkit.
     - Norton AV

 This CD is 100% free of any known viruses; It's absolutely impossible for any known
  virus to make it through to the final version of the CD! As stated above, we scan with
  the latest versions of the best virus-scanners; Only if all scanners are unable to
  detect a certain virus, we're defenseless.  Since we also use heuristic scanning, that's
  not very likely to happen.

Got A Problem?!

 This section is intended as a trouble-shooting guide; It tries to give you some
  advice if you cannot get a program to work.

    - Your joystick can't be calibrated. A lot of windows games don't have an option
      for calibrating your joystick. This has to be done from the Windows control
      panel. Select Settings->Control Panel from the Windows Start menu and double
      click Joystick/Game Controllers and then calibrate it.
    - The game you're trying to run needs DirectX (5), install it.
    - Some games require "Z" technology, ie your Z drive has to be
      available for SUBSTing. Put LASTDRIVE=Z in your CONFIG.SYS to fix this.
      Make sure SUBST.EXE is in your path (eg. your DOS-directory).
    - Trying to run a program which requires 16 MB of memory when you've
      only got 8 doesn't make sense.
    - If you're low on diskspace, try removing some files.  Some
      programs require some free diskspace to fiddle around with.
    - Some programs needs a huge amount of memory and might not run if
      you have restricted your virtual memory settings or are low on
      diskspace for the drive that holds your swapfile. Change it in
      the Control Panel (System->Performance->Virtual Mewmory).
    - Try increasing the FILES= statement in your CONFIG.SYS.
    - Remove SMARTDrive, (when running DOS mode).
    - Put the WINDOWS-directory (and WINDOWSCOMMAND) in your path.
    - Try using different startup-files (CONFIG.SYS/AUTOEXEC.BAT)!
      Here are some suggestions:
        - Change memory-managers.  Change QEMM to EMM386 and vice versa.
          (or better yet, remove them! as modern software will easily
          run without them)
        - Use only HIMEM.SYS.
        - Try using no startup-files at all (clean boot).  To do this,
          push Left-Shift at bootup.
        - Remove all TSRs from your startup-files (or at least the ones
          you don't really need).  Quite often they cause a conflict.
    - If a network is not required, disable it.
    - Remember to setup your soundcard properly!  If you get it wrong,
      it might just crash your machine.  Many sound-setup programs offer
      some sort of auto-detection; However, if this process crashes your
      machine you have to set the parameters manually.
    - Some DOS games moan something about VESA 2.0 or a linear-frame buffer
      if your video card is not up to it try installing a software VESA
      driver, like Scitech Display Doctor, it may also boost your game
      performance under DOS.
    - If a Windows game won't run try using a diffent resolution/color depth
      numerous older Windows games insist on having a 256 color display,
      no more, no less.
    - Get the latest drivers for your hardware, especially your
      video and audio card. Mostly found on their manufacturors Web site.
    - Make sure your DirectX is working properly.
    - If some cracked game complains about needing the CD, check if there
      is a CD-Rom in your CD drive, if so remove it and try again. If not
      put one in and try again! If this still doesn't help it might require
      MSCDEX to be loaded and it isn't.

Twilight Copyleft

 Be aware of cheap imitations!  Only the real Twilight brings you the
  real quality you're used to get from us, and at the price you payed for
  all these wonderful programs, it's an absolute givaway.
