GeneRally OptionToy v1.1 ======================== (C)Copyright 2002-2004, Rich „Weeds„ Nagel - All rights reserved What is this "OptionToy" thing anyways? --------------------------------------- The GeneRally OptionToy is a utility for use with GeneRally v1.02 or higher. Using the OptionToy you can adjust GeneRally's tire wear, fuel consumption, fuel mass, damage, points system, game speed, and the race length option settings well beyond the minimum and maximum limits of the game. Installation ------------ To install the GeneRally OptionToy, simply unzip OPTTOY11.ZIP to your GeneRally game directory on your hard drive. To upgrade an existing installation of this utility from a previous version, simply overwrite the existing files. Using the OptionToy ------------------- From the MS-DOS prompt, type "GROPTTOY" (minus the quotes) and press ENTER. Press the corresponding hotkey of the GeneRally option setting that you wish to adjust (the menus are self-explanatory). All of the option settings can be adjusted from 0 to 255. The "Game Speed" option setting feature is real handy, as you can maximize GeneRally's game speed to 255%. This is useful for any tracks that have the "World Size" increased to 255 (using either my "GeneRally TrackToy" or "GeneRally Track Editor TrackToy Patch" utility). Using the "Race Length" option setting feature, you can increase GeneRally's race length to the maximum for those long endurance races -:) The "Points System" option allows you to set up GeneRally using higher points values so you can race using a NASCAR styled points system, or any other racing points system that requires more than 50 points (which is the maximum normally allowed from within the game). Important Note -------------- If you attempt to adjust the GeneRally option settings from within the game (after adjusting any of the option settings using the GeneRally OptionToy), GeneRally will RESET that specific option setting back to the original limits of the game. In this case, simply run the OptionToy again and re-adjust the option settings to your liking. Legalities ---------- The GeneRally OptionToy (OPTTOY11.ZIP) may be freely distributed in it's unmodified and unedited form, and in it's original unmodified and unedited ZIP format archive for any non-commercial use. Use the GeneRally OptionToy at your own risk. I will not be held responsible for deleted GeneRally files, corrupted GeneRally files, crashed cars, crashed hard drives, crashed Windows (automotive or Microsoft), if the entire real-world time-space continuum grinds to a complete halt if "0" is selected for the game speed, and the like . Version History --------------- v1.0 - First release. (October 23, 2002) v1.1 - Added options to change points system. (January 6, 2004) - General menu enhancements.
