1. Installation
===========

Unrar all the contents in a folder and run the file named AlienGP.exe


2. System requirements
===================

The minimum system requirements are:

CPU: 1Ghz or more
Ram: 128mb or more
Video card: 32mb or more
HD space:  50MB free space


Although the game will run on lower spec computers, loading will take longer,
and some errors will occour.


3. Performance vs. Quality
=====================

The speed of the game will depend on your computer specifications.

If the game runs slow on your machine, just reduce the resolution and also the color depth.

If, on the other hand, the game runs too fast, increasing the resolution will not only
reduce the game speed but also increase the quality.

Other things that may effect the performance are:

a. Particles
b. Timer 
c. Counters

All of the above can be disable, either, from the graphics menu, found in options.
Or by pressing the corresponding keys during the game.


4. Keys:
=======

All keys can be found in Main Menu => Options => Controls

Here is the list of keys during the game:

Acceleration		  Up key
Break			Down key
Steer left			 Left key
Steer right		Right key
Wide Screen		      C
Show/ Hide Time		      T
Show/ Hide RPM 		      G
Show/ Hide Speed		      H
Camera Views		    1 - 7
Show ingame menu 		 Escape



5. Hints:
========


These are some hints that makes you understand the game better:

a. Before racing in a tournament, do some laps in quick race mode.
    By doing this, you will already know the track when in tournament mode,
    reducing the risk of losing.

b. Collision with a wall, although disadvantageous as speed is reduced, may 
     be helpfull in closed curves.

c. Pressing 5 will give you the camera situated on your opponent. By looking
    at his moves, you can learn how to takle the curves better. Also it is easier
    to defeat an enemy, if you know what he is going to do!
