Short:    HD-Installer for Seek And Destroy V1.1
Author:   Codetapper/Action (codetapper@hotmail.com), ICQ: 26051687
Uploader: Codetapper/Action (codetapper@hotmail.com)
Version:  1.1
Type:     game/patch

This patch applies to "Seek And Destroy" (c) 1993 Vision/Mindscape - 4
disks. Thanks to Richard and Jan Vieten for the originals.

REQUIREMENTS:
- Slave requires WHDLoad V10+ and RawDIC.
- Game requires 1Mb chip mem for ECS version or 2Mb chip for AGA version
  (+2.9Mb other memory for preload option in each case)

FEATURES:
- Full load from HD
- Loads and saves high scores
- Large MFM disk images converted back to files :)
- 2 versions included (for ECS or AGA play)
- AGA, 68020 and memory detection routines rewritten
- Powerpacker decruncher relocated to fast memory
- RomIcon, NewIcon and GlowIcon (created by me!)
- Quit option (default key is '*' on keypad)

VERSION 1.1:
- Bug in RawDIC imager fixed (thanks to Jan Vieten for the report)
- Instructions included
- Icons now have stack set to 10240 bytes
- All versions I have seen have a corrupt credits1.iff picture, this is
  now copied during the install process (ripped from the CD32 version :)

This game brings back memories for me!  I happened to be in the local Amiga
shop "Microworld" in Auckland when the programmer Paul Andrews came in to
demo his new game. He had seen "Desert Strike" and decided to write his
own helicopter shoot'em-up. Several months later, "Seek And Destroy" was
released through Mindscape :)

The snoop options in WHDLoad 13 will not work on this game, there are just
too many places where the game writes "illegal" copperlists during 
interrupts so I cannot easily remove them. If you wish to rip pictures with
the snoop option, use WHDLoad 12 instead :)

You can crunch any non-crunched files in this game using PowerPacker to
save yourself a few extra bytes.

Greetings to all Action members, my testing crew and the WHDLoad team!
