MYTH INFO FILE
--------------

Myth is a multi-level load game converted to run on
the TS2068 with JLO disk v2.63+.  A level loader trap has been added
(to load levels from disk rather than tape), a joystick trap has
been added so that you can use either of the TS2068's joysticks, 
and the AY chip sound effects have been modified for the 2068.

The game data is contained in the seven snapshots M1.SNA to M7S.SNA.
M7S.SNA is a state save of Myth.  To get this game on your TS2068,
you need to run sna2jlo which can be found using Hynek's search engine
at   http://drson.vse.cz/snapsearch/   (Do a search for nvg*2068).


* TRANSFERRING MYTH TO JLO DISK

Myth takes up 48 cylinders on disk; the JLO disk you want to save
this game on must have at least this much space available.

1.  Format a fresh MSDOS disk compatible with your TS2068's disk drive.
I use a 5.25" DSDD floppy, so I would format the disk with format b:/4.

2.  Copy all the .sna files to the disk with something like
copy m*.sna b:

3.  Take the disk to your TS2068 and load up sna2jlo with
RUN /"$SNA2JLO"CODE ?

4.  Format a new JLO disk (this will not be the disk the game is saved
on; this will be a garbage disk to hold temp files).  Using sna2jlo,
transfer the files M1.SNA, M2.SNA, M3.SNA, M4.SNA, M5.SNA and M6.SNA
to the jlo disk.

5.  Run the newly transferred snapshots M1 to M6.  Each snap 
contains level data and a save line that, after pressing enter, will 
cause all the level data to be saved on the Myth disk.

6.  Using sna2jlo again, transfer M7S.SNA from the MSDOS disk to your
Myth disk using something like  GO SUB /7,"%myth"  (You must use
this name unless you feel like editing the BASIC loader program).

If all went well, a CAT of your disk should reveal these files:

              %myth      STATE 10 49664

              TOTAL FILES: 15

To run the game, just LOAD /"MYTH" or load in the file selector
with LOAD and enter and choose "MYTH" from the menu.

Naming convention:  Files beginning with "$" are m/c programs loaded
into the JLO shadow RAM with the RUN / command.  Files beginning with
"%" are state saves with a level loader trap buried inside.

The file "---mythllt" contains the source code of $myth and details
of the modifications made to Myth.  It is a Zeus Assembler file and
must be loaded into Zeus to be viewed.  (Search for zeus4jlo on Hynek's
search engine).

This game was constructed from the level loader trap version
by Russell Marks.  I have corrected an apparent bug (a minor
irritation) - see "---mythllt" for details.  Here is what
Russell had to say:
