Title: Readme_3.6.txt re-formatted
Post by: mrduckman on April 09, 2004, 06:29:23 pm

Hey all.
I've just re-formatted the readme file so is more friendly for those who use Linux
and hate those UTF-8 formats for the (C) and (R) chars, which look awful with VIM :P

http://webs.uolsinectis.com.ar/dsusman/readme_3.6-1.txt

A little contribution.

Hope it serves.

Mr. Duckman

I think it should really be updated. 'specially the staff listing that includes only about 50% of the current SCP staff.

One comment.  Would you please add a line in there somewhere about what to turn on if you have a super computer and you want FS2 to looks its best?

This would be for people with the latest computers that can run anything.

uhm,i haven't read it yet, but make sure it contains links to here and most importantly, the wiki. (link under my name). also, check and see if the info in the wiki and in that readme match. the wiki stuff is based on the readme, but has been toroughly edited since, please, update.

this is quite a request list. I'll get into it.... and do some research for the args stuff.
'PCS'?
The wiki is something I'm not quite used to work with, but I'll try. (Back it up, anyway. I don't want to screw it up)

dude, i am telling you to grab the info from the wiki and put it into the readme, not the other way around.

and backup, anyone can roll back a page using diffs

Should fs2source Bugzilla be used? Or only the mantis?

Title: Readme_3.6.txt re-formatted
Post by: kasperl on April 11, 2004, 01:41:16 pm

only mantis, bugzilla should be gone from any and all documentation.

mrduckman, if you have any questions that need immediate answers, check my profile for my ICQ/MSN/AIM/Yahoo!

gf4fix is deprecated, isn't it? I tried it on the last build and the program didn't open.

(There will be many questions later :P)

you mean the geforce font problem fix? 1) it works, i use it. 2) it isn't Geforce, or even nVidia specific. my Radeon 7000 needs it too.

and grab my msn if possible. ([email protected]

i think you know what bit to remove)

Ok. new readme is updated with last URLs for Bug Tracking and Doc sites.
Also, the staff list is updated.
http://webs.sinectis.com.ar/~dsusman/readme_3.6-2.txt

I removed some command-line parameters which are no longer in use since 3.5.5.

Since this is not the actual 3.6 readme file for the upcoming version, kasperl and me decided we'll not update this readme any further unless is for the next official 3.6 release. This new readme will reflect what will be in the next version and what changes has been done, some little help about how to run the game and what ubermetroid asked earlier and the links for the HLP and FSSCP sites, the HLP forums and the Mantis.

Of course, the Wiki is being thoroughly updated. So, *use it*

Perfect :)

I  think FRED2 options should be in a separate table, though
