ADDENDA AND ADDITIONAL NOTES ON TES:ARENA _______________________________________________________ 1. KEYBOARD CONTROL: There is keyboard control implemented for TES:Arena. The arrow keys control forward/backward movement and turning left or right. 2. ARTIFACT QUESTS: Artifact quests can be received by asking people for "General Rumors". The chance of receiving a quest increases as a function of your level. 3. CLASS BALANCE: In Arena, not all classes are equally powerful and, consequently, different classes will require different techniques to complete the game. The subtleties of character classes is up to you to discern. Nevertheless, if you find the game play too hard, you might consider changing your character class. While each character class has its own unique abilities, Spellcasting classes are generally more powerful than non-spellcasting classes. Each class however, has the ability to complete the game successfully. 4. BUGS/HARDWARE INCOMPATIBILITIES: We have spent literally thousands of hours testing TES:Arena. We are very aware that with any program as large as Arena however, there may be some bugs lurking undiscovered. If each user will take the time to let us know of any problems they encounter, we will be in a position to make the necessary corrections and post them on the various BBSs. This way, any remaining problems can be corrected quickly. To contact our BBS call (301) 990-7552. For other contacts, please refer to your Player's Guide. NOTE: We have determined some hardware incompatabilities with certain Packard Bell systems. Some of these machines are quite simply not 100% IBM compatible. This often manifests itself as stray pixels on the health, fatigue and spell point bars, although other symptoms may also occur. This is NOT related to the software. 5. INSTALLATION: Context-sensitive help files: If the context sensitive help messages on Disk 1 do not highlight the appropriate item selected, complete the full installation and try again. 6. OTHER: Once you receive a clue as to a staff piece location, you can ask people where that location might be by asking "Where is...". The place name (such as Fang Lair) will be found at the bottom of the picklist, ie... you need to scroll the list down to see it. 7. NEW FUNCTION KEY ASSIGNMENT: (For DX 66 VESA Local Bus owners experiencing quadrant shear effect) The F3 key now toggles between one of three modes for registering hits in combat. Normal Roll: This is the default which simulates a blow to the head. Heavy Roll: Lessens shear effect to improve roll stability. No Roll: Self Explanatory - The screen will flash red when you are hit. For optimal effect on your system toggle between these modes. 8.
