If there's any help you need you might find the answers here. This help is for the Ms-Dos games.
General
I still have a lot of programming to do in Treasure Crypt and the game is incomplete. Batty, Resarf and Football Manager 2000 are nearly finished and they can be played.
If a program stops working then re-install the program. To do this, unzip the original file from this website. Delete everything in the games directory and copy the new files into the directory.
Important: These programs are made for Ms-Dos Full-screen. If any of the games are running and its in a window. Press right mouse button on the file i.e. Resarf.exe or Resarf.pif and choose properties. Find where it says Full-screen and tick the box. Then press apply. Another way to change to Full-screen is to press Alt + Return.
Controls
I haven't added much help in the programs yet. So I'll mention these things.
The Ms-Dos games all use the cursor keys for the controls (Left, Right, Up, Down arrow keys). You don't need a joystick or mouse to use them. Other keys used in my programs are the Return key, Spacebar, Escape key, Tab key and the Delete key.
When playing Batty use the Ctrl + Left and Ctrl + Right keys to move the bat, instead of Left and Right keys.
In Treasure Crypt pressing the letter 'x' quits the game.
Problems with speed
My programs use 100% of the CPU and this could cause problems in Ms-Dos and Windows.
Important: Its not advisable to multi-task while using these programs ex. doing something else in Windows while my games are running. If you want to do something on Windows then close my programs because it could slow Windows down.
If there's problems with the speed of any of my programs. Try the following things to see if it fixes it.
Close all the windows on the desktop. Especially large applications.
Stop downloading or uploading from the internet.
Only have 1 of my programs running at the one time.
Press Alt + Return to take you to Windows and press Alt + Return again to take you back into the game.
Each game has speed settings. Change the settings if it's too slow or too fast.
If this doesn't fix the problem with the speed then it could be because computer's have different CPU speeds. If this is the case I would have to change the code of the games to fix this.
Playing music on a program like Windows Media Player can sometimes cause the sound of the music to break. This can happen when the song has a high bit rate. Playing songs with a lower bit rate or speeding up my programs can fix this.
Bugs
There are lots of minor bugs in the programs which are still to be fixed. These bugs here are more important.
Don't use the format menu in Resarf because it can stop Resarf from starting. I haven't finished programming it and there's still bugs.
Small problem with the fitness and sponsors in Football Manager 2000.
The Hi-score table in Treasure Crypt might be too fast or too slow on some computers.
