--- BODY BLOWS ECS Hard Disk Installer ---

This installer requires the Body Blows ORIGINAL disks (there are 3).
It should NOT work for cracked versions or Body Blows Galactic.

The HD-Patched game will need about 4Mb of memory.
It should work on ALL Kickstarts and ALL CPUs (up to '060).
Report me any bugs you'll find.

FEATURES:

- Runs fully from HD/memory
- Convenient installer script
- Avoids allocating fast memory (the game does not work)
- Quit option (F10)

There were problems when using real fastmem. So, for 1MB chipmem amigas, the game
won't use any fast memory. If there are problems with 512K chipmem accelerated
amigas, try to disable all the caches, but I'm not sure the fastmem will be slow
enough to make the game playable (blows have no effect !!)

During the game, press F6 to toggle PAL/NTSC modes (original version).
See the cheat trick to fully enjoy this game.

Press F10 at any moment to quit the game.

Note: I created and tested this package with a A1200/060/50 16Mb, so there should
be no problems for all 680x0 CPUs (caches,chipset...). It degrades display properly
so Multiscan users won't have any sprite or screen problem.
The game was also patched for NTSC users.

When the disks are copied during installation, the pointer freezes. That's
normal cause the game uses a custom trackload routine (copy-protection), and
it does not easily multitask. No checks are done to see if you swapped the disks
or not.

If you find some bugs, or the game crashes, please e-mail me (specify your
configuration).
I'm also looking for people who could send me original disks for me to patch them
for 680x0 or write HD-Installers (not for cracked versions)
E-mail me if you're interested, or if you simply like this installer.

Enjoy this GREAT game from Team 17 on your HD.

Jeff
