games-pc pirates! gold-the capitan s broadsheet User Manual

i

We have attempted to make the installation and running of this

game as “user friendly” as possible, requiring little or no work from
you; however, given the wide multitude of machines, peripherals
and software in operation, this software might conflict with certain
systems or configurations of systems. Fortunately, this is rare, and it
is usually quite easy to fix.

The second section, “Playing 

Pirates! Gold” describes the “inter-

face” for the game — that is, how the game's controls work. Read
this while you are reading “Book I” of the Instruction Manual.

The 

Captain's Broadsheet is divided into two parts: the first part is

the “Technical Supplement;” it describes how 

Pirates! Gold is

loaded and run on your machine. The second part, “Playing
Pirates! Gold,” describes how to play the game on your machine.

ALL PLAYERS SHOULD READ THE “TECHNICAL SUPPLEMENT”
BEFORE LOADING PIRATES! GOLD.

This program requires an IBM 386, 16 MHz, or better, or a com-

puter 100% compatible with one of these models. The computer
must use an 80386 microprocessor or better. 

This program requires a color monitor with an IBM VGA or

SVGA graphics system. If you are using a compatible graphics
card or monitor, it must be 100% compatible with the above.

The program can be run entirely from keyboard, though we

highly recommend that you employ a mouse.

Pirates! Gold must be loaded onto a hard disk. It requires

around 18-20 MBs of free space.

You must have IBM PC-DOS or Microsoft MS-DOS, version

3.1 or higher.
