Issues unresolved

Tutorial in Windows version doesn't work

Under Windows 7 64-bit, the tutorial window appears but nothing else. Any user input will show a dialog box saying the tutorial was completed.

Issues fixed

Running from the hard drive only

To install the game fully under DosBox, first do a full install. Then copy the contents of the CD to a new directory. For example, if the game is installed to c:\games\alife, copy the cd contents to c:\games\alife\cd. Next, edit the afterdos.ini file to point the CD Path to that directory.

This works the same for Windows, except the file to edit is alife.ini.
