Usually no special installation is required, just run the coe.exe program.

If your graphics card can't handle 15 bit colour mode (32000 colours)
then you should type "coe -8" at the ms-dos prompt and the game
will only use an 8 bit colour mode (256 colours).


Graphics command line options:
   -8   8 bit colour mode
      (-d0  no dithering, only for 8 bit mode)
      (-d1  2x2 dithering (default), only for 8 bit mode)
      (-d2  random dithering, only for 8 bit mode)
      (-d3  2x2+random dithering, only for 8 bit mode)
   -15  15 bit colour mode (default)
   -16  Only use this if -15 doesn't display the correct colours.

Other command line options:
   -ns  No Sound
   -is  Internal Speaker
   -sb  Sound Blaster (default)


Trouble shooting

If the screen is blank when you try to run the game your graphic
card might be a bit uncompatible. Try to install the 'scitech display
doctor' or 'univbe' and it will hopefully fix the problem. Running the
game from ms-dos instead of windows95 might also help.

The sound is all wrong. Run the game from ms-dos and make sure
your sound blaster is installed properly for ms-dos.

If you have a new graphics card capable of a lot of colours
and the colours are all wrong when running in the 15 bit mode
then you should try typing "coe -16" to use a 16 bit
colour mode instead. It might fix the colour problems.
