Short : HD-Installer for D/Generation ECS/AGA/CD³²
Type : game/patch
Author : Jean-François Fabre (jffabre@free.fr)

Install-Script & HD-loader © 2002 Jean-François Fabre

D/Generation © 1991-1994 Mindscape

Features (ECS/AGA version):

- Runs fully from HD using WHDLoad/KickEmu31/13/KickDOS
- Convenient install script
- Copylock protection removed (present only in ECS version)
- Saves to HD (as the original did)
- Quit key (numerical '*', or configurable with QUITKEY)
- Doc/Hints included

Features (CD³² version):

- Runs fully from HD using WHDLoad/KickEmu31/KickDOS
- Convenient install script
- Saves to HD (in data/DGEN.nvd)
- Joypad supported and emulated with function keys (F5-F10)
- Quit key (numerical '*', or configurable with QUITKEY)
- Doc/Hints included

History:

- v1.0: initial release
- v1.1: added CD³² version, which uses Kick 3.1
- v1.2: fixed ECS slave. CTRL-Q now quits, and if you save and the SAVE.DAT file
  is not in the directory, the game still saves. Added AGA floppy version.
- v1.3: fixed AGA slave. No more OS swaps now. Locked whdload versions below 15
  for AGA/CD³² slaves

Notes:

- Should run on original & cracks.
- Read the documentation for load/save keys. Don't mix up Alt-R and CTRL-R
  (someone will recognize himself :))
- If you've got crashes with the CD³² version (illegal instruction at expmem $364,
  or access fault at expmem $E5A), then you've got a buggy version of WHDLoad. Get
  the newest WHDLoad version with fix for 512K kickstarts.
- If you need a ECS slave working for ROM 1.3, contact me.
- AGA/CD³² versions need WHDLoad v15.

Requirements (ECS version):

 The game requires a installed A500 Kickstart 3.1 image.
 The kickstart image must be located in the directory "Devs:Kickstarts" and
 must be named "kick34005.A500". The image can be extracted from a A500 with
 tools like 'GrabKick' or similar which can be found on aminet.
 If the image is of wrong version or altered in any way WHDLoad will quit with
 a appropriate requester.
 Additionally the file "kick34005.A500.RTB" must be installed in the same
 directory as the kickstart image. It can be found in the archive 
 "util/boot/skick344.lha" on aminet.


Requirements (AGA/CD³² versions):

 The game requires a installed A1200 Kickstart 3.1 image.
 The kickstart image must be located in the directory "Devs:Kickstarts" and
 must be named "kick40068.A1200". The image can be extracted from a A1200 with
 tools like 'GrabKick' or similar which can be found on aminet.
 If the image is of wrong version or altered in any way WHDLoad will quit with
 a appropriate requester.
 Additionally the file "kick40068.A1200.RTB" must be installed in the same
 directory as the kickstart image. It can be found in the archive 
 "util/boot/skick344.lha" on aminet.

Thanks to Bert Jahn for writing kickemu.s kickstart interface system.
