                  --------------------------

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
-------------------------
o   An installation program is provided to assist you in
    loading RENEGADE ROBOT RETALIATION on to your hard disk.
    For this program to work, please enter the following
    command at the DOS prompt:

                 INSTALL C:

    where C: = hard drive on which the program is to be
                 installed

o   Substitute other drive letter as appropriate.   Please
    note you must have 1.4 Megabytes free on your hard drive
    for the program to load properly.

o   This installation program will create a directory named
    c:\JUST4ME\RRR on your hard drive and store all the needed
    files in it.

o   If you prefer, you can also run the program directly from
    a floppy disk or CD-ROM by typing GO at the DOS prompt.
    Please note that the program will proceed at a slower pace
    due to the slower transfer times of these media.

o   Please do not try to save your game if operating from the
    CD-ROM as this media does not allow such operation.

EQUIPMENT REQUIREMENTS
----------------------
o   Due to the graphics and computational intensive nature of
    this program, we recommend the following minimum equipment
    for running RENEGADE ROBOT RETALIATION:

    --  IBM (or compatible) 486 DX4 with 50 MHz clock speed or
        faster
    --  At least 1.0 Megabyte of video RAM

o   Movement speeds within the maze are automatically adjusted
    to the speed of the processor used.  Please note that
    animation will be even smoother with faster processors due
    to their more frequent screen updates.

o   Mouse, sound card, and joystick support are also provided to
    make your game playing more realistic and enjoyable.

o   You will be asked to select NO SOUND, PC SOUND, or SOUND CARD
    at the beginning of the game.  We suggest you select the best

                               - 1 -                  RENEGADE ROBOT RETALIATION 
                  -------------------------- 

    possible alternative consistent with your equipment. 

o   RENEGADE ROBOT RETALIATION automatically detects what sound
    card you are using -- i.e., there is no need for you to enter
    input ports, IRQ's, or DMA.  If your machine locks up for any
    reason, your sound card is not supported.  Please reboot and
    select either PC SOUND or NO SOUND.

o   Next, you will be asked to select how you want to control
    your game -- i.e., keyboard, mouse, and/or joystick.
    If you have a joystick, we suggest you use it since it
    offers the best possible control over your remote control
    tank.

o   If a joystick is selected and our software confirms that it
    can find and operate with it, you will be asked to calibrate
    the joystick.  Because of the wide variety of joysticks, each
    with their own particular characteristics, this step is 
    necessary to ensure proper operation.  Please follow the
    on-screen instructions.

OVERALL OBJECTIVE
-----------------
o   To protect the underground complex by "taking out" as many
    renegade robots as possible with your remote control R3 squad
    tank. 

LEVELS
------
o   There are ten (10) levels within the R3 underground complex.
    It is easier to survive in the lower levels than in the
    higher levels.

o   You can choose to enter any level as many times as you want.

o   To succeed, you must conserve your energy and health so that
    you can reach the pickup point in the Southeast corner of
    each level. 

o   At the end of each level, your health and energy will be
    restored.

SCORING/EARNINGS
----------------
o   You earn money by taking out robots.

o   Since robots on the higher levels are more difficult to kill,
    you earn more for them than the lower level robots.

                               - 2 -                  RENEGADE ROBOT RETALIATION
                  --------------------------

o   After you lose your R3 robot (by running out of energy or
    health) or choose to exit (by hitting <ESC>), your earnings
    and the value of your purchased equipment are totalled
    into a final score.

EQUIPMENT
---------
o   Your R3 tank comes equipped with a standard vaporizer,
    battery, and armor.

o   At the end of each level, you can choose to upgrade these.
    In addition, you can purchase shields and/or sensors.

o   Payment for these upgrades will be withdrawn from your
    earnings.  You will be promptly informed if you have
    insufficient funds.

o   You can return purchased equipment for credit at the end of
    each level.

o   This money can then be used to make alternate equipment
    selections.

OPERATION
---------
o   To move through the opening screens more quickly, hit the
    <ENTER> key repeatedly.

o   To move your tank, use the arrow keys, roll your mouse, or
    tilt your joystick.

o   To open doors, hit the space bar, click the left mouse
    button, or push button two on your joystick.

o   To use your laser, hit the <CTRL> key, click the right
    mouse button, or push button one on your joystick.

o   To activate your shields (if already purchased), hit the
    "S" key.

o   If you forget how to operate these controls, use the
    <F1> key to call a HELP screen.

o   While in the maze, you can call a map to the screen by
    hitting the <F2> button.  Your return from the map by
    hitting the <F4> button.

                  -------------------------- 

o   You can call a summary of your present equipment to the
    screen by hitting the <F3> button.

o   Toggle sound on and off by pressing the <F5> button.

o   You can adjust the speed (fore/aft and rotational) of your
    tank by hitting the <F6> button.  Follow the instructions
    provided on the screen.  Slow down the rotational speed if
    you are having any difficulties aiming your tank's laser.

LOADING/SAVING GAMES
--------------------

o   At the beginning of each level, you will be given an
    opportunity to either load or save a game.

o   You can save your game in or load your game from five
    different slots.

o   We suggest you save your game frequently.
