* Note for DOSBox users *

This software is fully installed and configured to run in the DOSBox emulator.
You can simply drag and drop the file CHASM.BAT over the DOSBox icon to start
playing. Experienced DOSBox users may choose other methods of startup.

!!! IMPORTANT !!!

Please DO NOT use CSMWEB.BAT to run the game! This is a special file for the
browser version of DOSBox and will not play CHASM Demo in the best possible
quality.

The software was configured and tested to work with the official DOSBox build
v0.74-3 available from www.dosbox.com. It may or may not work with any other
third-party DOSBox distributions that are available.

For playing instructions and other information, please refer to the Readme.txt
file found in the CHASM directory.

!!! IMPORTANT !!!

CHASM will only play in DOSBox if CPU core is set to normal or simple.

Using third-party DOSBox builds such as DOSBox SVN Daum or DOSBox ECE might
result in better performance (especially in high resolution modes) compared to
the official build.

DOSBox SVN Daum         : http://ykhwong.x-y.net/
DOSBox ECE              : https://dosboxece.yesterplay.net/
==============================================================================
* Note on the use of S3 VBE/Core 2.0 and S3 Speed Up *

S3 VBE/Core 2.0 and S3 Speed Up are utilities by Dietmar Meschede that improve
video performance and speed in DOSBox for VGA and VESA modes.

S3 VBE/Core 2.0 and S3 Speed Up are free software. Please see the respective
documentation in S3VBE20 and S3SPDUP directories for more information and
license details.
