                   Upgrade Instructions for Run For The Money!
                      for versions previous to version 1.30

    This maintenance release package is complete, so you can start from
scratch if you haven't been running a previous version. If you have already
been running RFTM!, then allow your unarchiver overwrite all files in the
RFTM directory EXCEPT the file RMCONFIG.DTA. Then run RMONEY in the setup
mode, i.e., type RMONEY SETUP <Enter>. You may hit <Enter> to accept defaults
for the prompts to which you already have valid answers, but be prepared to
answer the new questions. These new questions in the first portion of setup
are the path and filename to your Avatar high scores file and the path where
the DOORCTRL.INI file exists, or where you want RFTM to create the file if it
doesn't already exist. Note that you may leave the path\filenames blank for
any of the three high scores files (ANSI, Avatar and/or ASCII) if you do not
wish RFTM to create them. However, you MUST have a valid pathname for the
DOORCTRL.INI file!

    It is not necessary to initialize the game when prompted if you have
active races and bets. Just say no to this prompt.

    When prompted to create the DOORCTRL.INI file, answer yes if it doesn't
already exist. Then answer all questions regarding your com port hardware
setup, including the address for each port (if you're nor sure, just use the
default values), the IRQ for each port in the range of 2-15 (again, use the
defaults if you don't know), whether to use a FOSSIL driver (possibly loaded
in your CONFIG.SYS file as BNU or X00) or RFTM's internal com drivers, the
speed of the port if locked, whether or not to initialize the FOSSIL driver
if used, and what kind of flow control to use.

    Next, edit the batch file or menu you use to call RFTM from your BBS and
delete the switches (if any) that set up the FOSSIL driver. The only parameter
allowed on the command line is the path and filename of your BBS's drop file.
In other words, the following is an acceptable command line:

                RMONEY C:\BBS\DOOR.SYS

    The following is NOT valid for this version:

                RMONEY C:\BBS\DOOR.SYS /INIT /CTS

    That should be all there is to upgrading from a previous version of RFTM.
If you have any problems, write or call to the address of voice phone listed
in the file RMSYSOP.DOC or RFTM.FRM. I can also receive FidoNet netmail at my
point at 1:116/3000.12 or through posts in the Doorware, DoorGames and
On_Line_Games FidoNet echos. I'll be glad to help any way I can!

                                            Enjoy!
