Crank up Spaceway 2000™ and let's play with the aliens! Spaceway 2000™ by Jeffrey Robbin (author of Conflict Catcher™ 3) and john calhoun (author of Glider and Glider Pro™) • Escape the alien-infested, intergalactic freeway! • High-speed, high-voltage Macintosh arcade action • Supports B&W and color- 4-Bit, 8-Bit, 16-Bit and even 32-Bit Graphics! • High-quality rendered graphics - 99 waves to conquer This version of Spaceway 2000 works on both the 68000 based Macintosh computers, as well as PowerPC based Power Macintosh computers. New features of the Power Macintosh version of Spaceway 2000: • New Sound Management! Spaceway 2000 now incorporates a new sound management system that provides much richer sound effects. In fact, the new sound system can keep track of up to twelve distinct sound effects while playing the four most important sounds at any given time. • Thousands/Millions of Colors! Using the capabilities of the Power Macintosh, Spaceway 2000 is able to play at its highest speed (without experiencing any "slowdown") in any color depth, including Millions of colors! The graphics have never been more glorious than when seen at full-speed in Thousands or Millions of colors. [==========================================================] Spaceway 2000 — a high-speed, intergalactic freeway. It's the ultimate commuter's nightmare! Yelling "Get off the road, buddy!" won't work on these Sunday-driving aliens! Watch out for the Drones and Flies, which pursue you relentlessly, the Wall Creepers who crawl along the edge of the highway and fire at you, and the Blockers who follow your movements like bad mimes and keep you from passing. And More! Use the laser cannons, automatic shields, smart bombs, missiles, and "stop time" to battle your way down the road. "Spin out" your space ship in a circular sweep of firing power. Be sure to pick up the shield rechargers and keys to extra ships. On every route look for a mystical crystal — the key to surviving Spaceway 2000. The more crystals you obtain, the more ships you will be granted. Don't forget to nab the unopened crates as you barrel down the street — they will be opened at the end of each wave to reveal the wildest treasures! Hop on Spaceway 2000 and drive yourself straight to the brink of super- arcade madness! --------------Spaceway-2000™----- The First Time You Play ----------------- Double-click on the "Spaceway 2000™" file. When the game comes up, go first to the "Options" menu and select the "Adjust Memory…" item. A dialog box will come up allowing you to select how much memory you would like Spaceway 2000™ to use. You select your monitor size and how many colors you will want to play Spaceway 2000™ in (these two variables - monitor size and # of colors - are what determine the amount of memory required). If you don't see your monitor size listed you can enter it in the area in the lower left of the dialog box. Your suggested memory size is displayed at the bottom of the dialog. …

Speak2Me 1.0 WHAT IS SPEAK2ME? Speak2Me uses MacinTalk to read the icons in the finder as they are selected. Speak2Me requires System 7 or later. Make sure that you are using the MacinTalk which is compatible with System 7. Unfortunately, I don't have a license to distribute MacinTalk so it is not included. INSTALLING SPEAK2ME Speak2Me is a control panel (cdev) which works only with system 7. To install Speak2Me simply drop it on the system folder and it will be auto-magically placed in the control panels folder. If you like to do things the hard way, you can open up the system folder and place it in the control panels folder yourself. The next time you start up your Mac, Speak2Me will be active. OPTIONS You are given two options in the cdev, the first is for MacinTalk to read the name fast or slow. In Fast mode, Macintalk reads it as fast as it can. (SpeechRate set to 425 for all you MacinTalk fans). In slow mode, MacinTalk reads the text at its default speed. The other option is to not display the icon at start up. This is usually a personal choice. The default is to show it. I am very interested in the options people would like to see, for instance I can do things like tell you the type of item selected and whether the item is opened or closed. I can also add in things like reading the keyboard, menus, etc. I'm interested in knowing the types of things in the finder which should be read outloud and I will try to add them in. HINTS MacinTalk reads 'ƒ' as folder, so if you name a folder "System 7.1 ƒ" it reads it as System 7.1 folder. You get used to the fast mode very quickly, I find the normal mode too slow for my taste. KNOWN PROBLEMS When more than a few windows are open in the Finder, Macintalk doesn't work. I have not been able to track this one down (any ideas)? WHADDAYAWANT FOR NOTHING? Speak2Me is free, you owe me nothing for the use of this program. However, I reserve all rights to it and its source code. You are welcome to use and distribute it as you like, but you must distribute all the documentation as well. If you include this on a CD-ROM or other large media collection, I would appreciate being notified (A free copy of the CD-ROM would be nice also).
