This archive contains two version of Space Dynasty:

(1) DYNASTY.EXE - This version of the game contains no explicit modem
routines.  It merely reads and writes to standard I/O and expects the
BBS to redirect this information to the modem (via WWIV DOS interrupts,
Doorway, SuperHost, etc.).

(2) DYNASTYF.EXE - This version of the game expects a FOSSIL driver to
be installed.  A FOSSIL driver is a device driver which is used by many
programs for modem communications.  There are many features in this
version of the game which cannot be implemented in DYNASTY.EXE, so I
highly recommend using it.  FOSSIL drivers (such as X00 and BNU) are
readily available in the public domain, and can either be permanently
installed on your system, or can be loaded before the game and unloaded
afterward.

Syntax is the same for both versions.

********************

Space Dynasty 3.04 will read either WWIV's CHAIN.TXT, PCBoard's
PCBOARD.SYS, or Wildcat's CALLINFO.BBS, depending on which file is
specified on the DOS command line.

The file DYNASTY.DOC should be placed in the DYNASTY subdirectory created by
the game in order for players to be able to read instructions online.

Following are instructions for each variation:

----------

CHAIN.TXT:

Syntax: DYNASTY %1 to store all game files in a GFILES\DYNASTY subdirectory
           or
        DYNASTY %1 DIRNAME to store file in a GFILES\DIRNAME subdirectory.
   
In CHAINEDIT, DYNASTY.EXE requires DOS Interrupts to be set to Used;
DYNASTYF.EXE requires DOS Interrupts to be set to Not Used.

----------

PCBOARD.SYS:

Syntax: DYNASTY [path]PCBOARD.SYS to store all game files in a subdirectory
        called DYNASTY.  This subdirectory is created off of whatever the
        default directory is when the game is executed.
           or
        DYNASTY [path]PCBOARD.SYS DIRNAME to store all game files in a
        subdirectory called DIRNAME.

Example: DYNASTY C:\BBS\PCBOARD.SYS

----------

CALLINFO.BBS

Syntax: DYNASTY [path]CALLINFO.BBS to store all game files in a subdirectory
        called DYNASTY.  This subdirectory is created off of whatever the
        default directory is when the game is executed.
           or
        DYNASTY [path]PCBOARD.BBS DIRNAME to store all game files in a
        subdirectory called DIRNAME.

Example: DYNASTY C:\BBS\CALLINFO.BBS
