RIP INFO

This is an OFFICIAL COMPILATION of oldies by MicroProse. Not some shitty
compilation by some unknown company. Also ALL games in this collection
were NEVER released by any rip group (as checked on ISOnews, Tawnidupe
and digital.factory dupecheckers). So my guess is that this is a 100%
valid release. Go ahead and prove me otherwise. Oh yeah, and if all of
you nukers feel like nuking it, at least try to find a valid reason to
do so.

Ripped out: demos, Adobe Acrobat Reader, all the rest is in there.

Cya all soon,

HiTech666

Co-founder, ripper.

INSTALLATION NOTES

Unzip, Unrar or use our l33t installer that was skillfully coded by
Israelvis, GFX were made by Zelkor (though it's still not exactly
100% bug free). To install the games run "Install.exe" in your newly
created "Conquer The World" directory and follow the instructions.
Be sure to run Setup Sound Configuration for every game: most of them
have music which you have to setup manually.

If you want to read the manuals they're in the "Manuals" subdirectory.
(You need Adobe Acrobat Reader available for free from here:
http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep.html . If for some
reason the games don't run correctly make a startup boot disk with a
bootdisk utilty found at: Extras\Bootdisk directory.

ATTENTION: READ THIS CAREFULLY: In the main (Conquer The World) dir,
there is a file called "manualscan.zip". It contains the MANUAL book
that came with the game. Two of the games, Railroad Tycoon Deluxe and
Pirates! Gold have PROTECTION SCHEMES. The old style protection
schemes... The game asks you a question, you have to answer on it from
the manual. If you don't, the game won't run corectly. Back in the old
days this insured that the game won't be copied. Well, not anymore.
The "manualscan.zip" contains the manual (in .jpg files) that came
with the game. You can open those files with IE or Netscape or ACDSEE.
The pages 14-15 contain the Qs and As for Pirates! Gold and the pages
16-18 contain the Qs and As for Railroad Tycoon Deluxe. Be sure to
save those files someplace safe and even better to print them out.
But if you don't have a printer, when the game asks you a question,
use the Alt+Tab command to switch back to windows, find the correct
answer and use Alt+Tab to switch back into the game. Easy!

Also if you have any problems with the games like crashes and freezes,
it's not because this is a "improper rip", it's because those games
were designed for DOS.

GROUP NEWS

Welcome to all our new members! Soon we'll put a members list in this NFO.
Special thanx go to Fwenk for this NFO design and the ASCII logo. Also
a BIG thanx goes to Zelkor for the image he made for our group (be sure
to check out "psychowarez.jpg" included in the first disk). Also we need
to congratulate Israelvis and his friends Un-Bob & GuffmWan on their
awesome installer (BTW, GFX were made by Zelkor, you rule man).

Right now we're on lookout for the following SKILLED individuals:

1) Crackers- please no complete beginners, we need more or less advanced
people who can crack commercial protections like CDilla/Securom/etc...

2) Game suppliers- people who have the means and the time to supply us
with the LATEST (ie: non released by other groups, or even beta) games.
Right now we can't reimburse you the cost of the software.

3) Rippers- people who have some experience in stripping down games
without damaging their functionality.

4) We're also in need of access to 0-day/min ISO servers for our ripping
needs.

5) Any FTP Sysops who run FAST, at least T1 speed linux/NT boxes please
apply for inspection for the chance to become our WHQ. We also need
a USHQ and a EHQ to help spread our releases.

NO COURIERS NEEDED ANYMORE!!!!!!
