            Leisure Suit Larry 6:  "Shape Up or Slip Out!"


Thanks a lot for buying our game!  We appreciate your business and
hope you have lots of laughs playing it!

But before you barge in and start flailing away at all those beautiful
babes, take a moment to scan through this file.  After you do, read the
leaflet in the CD's jewel box.


This file covers the following topics:
      1. DON'T PLAY THIS VERSION!
      2. MINIMUM HARDWARE
      2. BAD DIGITAL SOUND EFFECTS
      3. GRAVIS ULTRASOUND CARD



                     1. DON'T PLAY THIS VERSION!

If you are reading this file, it means you installed the
low-resolution version of the game.  Only play this version as
a last resort!  It's here only for those of you with slow computers,
or VGA cards that are not VESA compatible, and who can't run Windows.
Consult the README file in the CD's root directory or the leaflet in
the CD's jewel case for more information.



                          2. MINIMUM HARDWARE

   286/16mhz MS-DOS compatible (386/16 recommended)
   VGA card and monitor
   Microsoft-compatible mouse
   CD-ROM drive
   sound card with DAC
   hard drive
   600,000 bytes of free low memory

The more memory you free up, the better the game runs!  If you're
having problems, let the DOS INSTALL program create a boot disk for
you.  Signs of low memory or overtaxed hardware include slow
animation and/or sound breakups.

Performance improvers:
   faster CPU (486/25 or better)
   more low memory (630,000 bytes is nice)
   more extended or expanded memory (8 megs is plenty)



                      3. BAD DIGITAL SOUND EFFECTS

If you are playing from DOS, try adding this line to the file
"RESOURCE.CFG":
     audioSize = 8k
Experiment with the size.  Try 12k, or even 16k, to see what works
best.  Making this larger decreases the amount of memory available
to the game.  If you increase audioSize, you may need to free up
more low memory to play the game.



                       4. GRAVIS ULTRASOUND CARD

If you have a GUS card, you may have better results by using a
special TSR driver co-developed by Gravis and Sierra.  It is in
your LSL6CD directory in a self-extracting archive named GUSDRV.COM.
Run it by typing GUSDRV in the LSL6CD directory.  Follow the
instructions given in READIT.
