Installation Instructions for 4.07
'`'`'`'`'`'`'`'`'`'`'`'`'`'`'`'`'`

    TO INSTALL A NEW LORD GAME 

   Unzip LORD.ZIP into your LORD directory.  
   
   Edit START.BAT and the top lines to reflect your path and drive letter.
   (Or skip that part, but make sure when you run START.BAT you are *IN*
   the LORD directory.)
   
   Run LORDCFG.EXE.

   Use the Node Configuration.  This will allow you to configure baud
   rate, locked baud rate, com port, special port address's if needed, the
   drop file type your BBS writes and where to find it.

   Set up EACH node your BBS has. 

   (Lazy people - when you enter a node number that has not been configured,
    it defaults to node 1's settings - so it's really not that big a chore)

   You CAN multiple nodes with one node setting, if they all work the same
   way.  (set comport to be read from the drop file)

   
   **IMPORTANT**

   To run LORD, you must run the START.BAT file.  4DOS users must CHANGE
   the name of this file, it's a reserved word.

   C:\LORDDIR\START.BAT 2  <-- example of running LORD with node 2's settings  
   

   If you are running START.BAT from a drop file, add the word CALL in front
   of it or it will not return to that batch file.

   Example:

   CD \whatever
   CALL START.BAT <node number>
   run bbs.exe

   Single node systems:  Always run it as 'node 1' like this:

   START.BAT 1
   
   THATS IT!

   To try the game locally, run START 0.

   For more help, read the LORD.DOC file.
   

                -=-=-= Other not so important notes =-=-=-

   A few sysops have asked me to include something they can put up on their
   logon screen to let users know LORD 4.07 has arrived there - I have
   enclosed LORDAD.ANS for this purpose, use as you will.


   NOTE:  If you run Lantastic - After you're done setting up, run
   the batch file DOATTRIB.BAT from the LORD dir.  (It will change 4 files
   to Read Only for compatiblity) (NOATTRIB.BAT un-does this) 


   YET ANOTHER NOTE:  The 3rdparty.dat file is now created automatically
   *IF* it doesn't exist.  So it's safe to do a direct copy over your old
   LORD dir when upgrading, you won't lose your IGM list. 


   * NATALIEIMBRUGLIAROX - This cannot legally be a dos file. (too long)
     (But it can on 32 bit systems!)
