                     STARBALL - Special Edition
                    ----------------------------

An Atari ST / Falcon Pinball game written by Volume 11 Software
Development.



This is just a short introduction: a more comprehensive README file can
be found inside the game itself, by holding SHIFT when the quote of the
day appears. Please read that message, it carries instructions for how
to use the game.

A couple of things that are worth pointing out again: on a 512k machine
you have to run it from an AUTO folder. To do this, create a folder
called AUTO on the Starball disk, copy STARBALL.TOS into that folder,
and rename STARBALL.TOS to STARBALL.PRG. Everyone else can run it from
inside any folder on any drive.

For Falcon users, look at the main instructions for infomation on how to
set up MODLIST.TXT to select the right soundtracker modules. An example
file is provided, with lots of comments. Note that ALL of the Starball
files must be present for the game to run.

There are certain compatibility problems, and extra controls, and
these are detailed fully in the main readme file.


Sampled sound effects are available, but you will need to find a copy
of the FX file, contained in STARBLFX.ZIP which should be available
anywhere where the main game is. You MUST have an STe, TT or Falcon
to attempt this or the game will crash!


Anyway that's about it for now. Please contact me if you have any comments
about the game, or (erk) find any bugs! My current email address is
      oldcornd@nessie.mcc.ac.uk
If this fails to work, try
      daveo@jumper.mcc.ac.uk
which is another but generally less reliable account I have. I also
have a PO Box (to which you will hopefully be sending donations!):
	Volume 11 Software Development,
	PO Box 311,
	Preston
	PR3 5DZ
	(England)

We have other games and projects in the pipeline, so please look out
for us! And DON'T forget to read the main README file! (remember,
hold down SHIFT when the quote appears!)

Good Luck
