RELEASE NOTES:

Main Release Information

The gods Jupiter (Romans), Horus (Egyptians) and Ch'ih -Yu (Asians) have
unfortunately  lost some of their shape, due to gluttony that comes with
centuries  of reigning.  During one of their  parties, HE orders them to
appear in front of HIM, through HIS private secretary Q'nq'ra. HE is the
highest of all gods in the  universe.  HE is very angry, Q'nq'ra gloats,
and  it's true  that the god of all gods wants to  change their terrible
lives and grant them one last chance to straighten up. For the very last
time, each of them may nominate the best one of their race as the leader
for a new  beginning.  They are  expected  to find a new people with his
help, to build  up a new  economy,  and to prove  themselves by fighting
other races. However, only one of the three races can assume leadership,
and only the god  whose people prevail,  won't  be  punished.  And  this
punishment is really gory... The  three gods  remorsefully  get on their
way in order to find the right man...

The Settlers III contains  three  different  campaigns: Roman, Egyptian,
and Asian. Just like in the preceding  games, the goal is to build up an
economy. In The  Settlers III,  however, the player can choose the races
he wants to use.  Depending  on the god they're adoring, the people have
different  characteristics  and  skills,  and  either  they're  good  at
construction or at developing strategies.The characters of the different
races have varying physical  features,  wear  distinct clothing, live in
different houses  and  build  special  temples for their god. The player
assumes the role of the leader chosen by his god.All Settlers people are
hard-working  and  energetic,  and therefore  immediately start building
houses and making food from natural resources like wood,rocks,deer,fish,
plants  and  minerals.  There are foresters and lumberjacks, geologists,
miners, farmers  and carpenters all in all, more than 30 different types
of  characters  follow the player's instructions! But soon he discovers:
It's  not  easy  looking  after  the  well-being of an entire race! Here
there's no  wood, over  there the construction work comes to a halt, and
somewhere else the lumberjacks are no longer working because they've run
out of  food. And  the Gods should not be forgotten either, because they
could  send catastrophes like  blazes  and  plagues  of locusts! Temples
and other shrines must be built. The  priests and temple guardians adore
the Gods by making generous sacrifices.

The  player  must  obviously  plan  ahead,  so his economy functions and
prospers and it  has to, because  the neighboring  people and their gods
are always on the guard!The better the economy functions, the better the
chances  are to protect oneself from the neighbors assaults or to invade
enemy territory. There are  sword fighters , archers, spear throwers and
scouts. The military equipment is also quite impressive: In The Settlers
III, fortresses , towers,  and ships are now accessible for the Settlers
characters.The authentic pattern of individual military movements can be
controlled by the player . The goal of each of the three campaigns is to
defeat  the  other  two  races,  because  this  is  the only way for the
triumphant god to escape his terrible punishment....

Crack FIX Information

Backlash  released  the german  version of Settlers 3 (Die Siedler 3) on
15-November-98. We tested all game features like single-play, multi-play
on internet and LAN. We tested all races and all dificulty levels. Well,
obviously our  crack  (we used a  loader  routine by moelch, because the
main .exe file was  crypted!)  was not  100%.  Later in the game strange
things  happens, like the  tree  growing was not complete (so you get no
more wood), or instead of iron you recieved pigs, and many more.

On  18-November-98 RAZOR  released the  english version of this game and
just used our crack , which  on the first look works fine, but later you
got the same problems like in the BLH version. So a fix is needed!

Now we present a FULLY  working crack-fix  for both  the english and the
german RELEASE  (not the ISO) version.  Just replace the loader with the
included one and you won't have any problems any more.

ISO-Note

Our Crack does NOT work with any ISO-release  of  this game , either the
english nor the german version . Maybe we will release an iso-crack, but
the included crack  wont work. Some  lamers (like sentinel/gwa) took our
first crack for their  ISO-release (without asking us and without giving
credits to us)  and  blamed  bluebyte  for the problems with their isos.
NUKE them, because NO iso will work, if you don't have a real-ISO crack.
