Black & White(TM) Readme File
-------------------------
A message from the Lionhead team (6am January 23rd 2003).
Thank you for buying Black & White. We spent three years writing this game and
it is, we believe, unlike anything else you will have ever played.
It is everything we hoped it would be, and contains all the features we thought
a ground-breaking game should have.
We hope that you enjoy playing as much as we've enjoyed working on it. In fact,
we hope you enjoy it more than that because there have been times when it's
pushed us to our very limits.
Making this game, we found out who we really were. We hope that, as you play,
you'll find out who YOU really are.
Please do look at this readme document. It'll enhance your enjoyment of what we
hope is an incredible game to play.
This latest patch will add a whole new element of gameplay in Black & White.
It focuses around the use and control of a new PC interface device called the
P5 from Essential Reality.
You can learn more about it at www.essentialreality.com. It allows the gamer
to play the game via the use of a virtual reality glove interface device.
You literally can be the hand of god!
Thank you.
All at Lionhead Studios Ltd.

------------------------
2. Installation of Patch
------------------------
Note: Black & White will only install and run on machines installed with
Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows ME or Windows 2000.
1. Start your machine and wait for the Windows 95/98/ME/2000 operating
system to load.
2. Place the Black & White CD in the CD drive.
3. Windows will automatically detect the CD and begin the installation.
Follow the on-screen instructions to install Black & White. If you need to
install DirectX 7.0a, you can do this as part of the installation. Black &
White will then be ready to play.
4. The installation program creates a program group called Lionhead
Studios Ltd and adds it to your Start/Programs menu. Left-click on the Start
button on your Windows task bar. Under Programs/Lionhead Studios Ltd, select
and click Black & White to play.
5. Next, execute the patch by double clicking on the patch program. The
patch will automatically detect the installed version of B&W and perform the
necessary upgrades.
Note: Should Windows fail to recognize the CD and fail to run the installation
program, run Setup.exe from the root directory of the CD.
----------
3. DirectX
----------
If you try to run the game without DirectX7.0a installed, you will receive the
following error message:
"The Black.exe file is linked to the missing export
Ddraw.dll:DirectDrawCreateEx".
If you try to run the Black & White Setup application without DirectX7.0a
installed, you will receive the following error message:
"The setup.exe file is linked to the missing export mfc42.dll:66461"
If you receive either or both of these messages, you need to install
DirectX7.0a. For your convenience, we have included DirectX7.0a on the Black &
White CD.
a) Installing DirectX7.0a directly from CD (if you skipped it during game
install)
Black & White comes with DirectX7.0a and will prompt you to install it during
installation. If you would like to install it manually, make sure the Black &
White CD is in the CD-ROM drive change to the following folder on your CD-ROM
drive:
"\Directx"
and double-click on DXSETUP.EXE
b) DirectX7.0a and supported hardware
We recommend that Black & White be run with DirectX compatible sound boards and
video cards. While there is a chance that Black & White will run with
non-DirectX compatible hardware, you may find that:
i) Sound quality suffers.
ii) The game runs slower.
iii) The game does not run at all.
If your sound card or video card does not support DirectX, please contact your
vendor.
------------
4. Uninstall
------------
To uninstall Black & White go to Programs/Lionhead Studios Ltd/Uninstall Black
& White in the Start menu. Left-click on Uninstall Black & White to proceed.
Should this fail to work, left-click on the Start menu, select Settings and
then Control Panel. Now find Add/Remove Programs and double left-click to run.
Scroll down the list until you see Black & White, select it and left-click on
Add/Remove to uninstall.
If the uninstaller fails to completely remove Black & White (it may not, for
example, delete your Saved Games folder), delete the folder to which you
installed the game. Thus, if you have used the default directories, double
left-click on My Computer, double left-click on the C: drive, double left-click
on Program Files, left click on the Lionhead Studios folder, then right click
and select Delete. Click Yes to confirm. This will send the remaining files to
the Recycle Bin, which you will then need to empty.
---------------------
5. Gameplay additions
---------------------
Planting a tree away from any buildings will produce more trees. A green puff
of smoke confirms this action.
Watering any tree will encourage that tree to grow (except trees planted near
your Temple). This is essential on later quests where wood is a premium.
When you have a villager in your hand, a house with the blue man symbol
indicates his home.
Miracle Dispensers - You are able to build your own one-shot Miracle Dispensers
by combining six scaffolds created at your workshop. Once placed on the
landscape, you can create one-shot Miracles by charging a Miracle in your hand
and casting it on the Dispenser. These can be moved from the Dispenser, placed
anywhere and saved for later use. You can cast any Miracle on a created
Dispenser to create a one-shot Miracle of that type. This is an especially
useful tactic, as you can create one shot Mega-blasts and place them in the
Vortex for use in later lands.
-------------------
6. Controller Notes
-------------------
Control key additions:
----------------------
Please note: These will be overwritten if you assign these keys to other
commands in the ingame Options/controls menu.
R - repeat Miracle (same as using the repeat Gesture).
M - Miracle selection mode (same as using the Miracle Gesture).
Pressing & holding Ctrl + Shift will zoom you close into your hand. Releasing
them will return you to your previous view.
P5 CONTROLLER:
Black & White fully supports the P5 technology from Essential Reality.
This functionality is available to anyone who is using the P5 and with this
patch installed.
The P5 allows the user to interact with Black & White, via the use of a virtual
glove worn on the hand, in a completely new and natural way not possible
before.
In the virtual Black & White world, you will now be able to realistically
interact with the world by using natural hand motions, that mimic the real
world tasks. Tasks such as exploring the world, interacting with objects,
pulling up trees, powering up Miracles, stroking or slapping your Creature
together with many other interactions
all have been programmed to be accomplished using natural hand gestures instead
of the existing mouse interface. This adds to the overall immersiveness and
realism of the game.
In Black & White, the goal has always been to produce an interface, which is
entirely uncluttered by the traditional icons, menus and instead concentrate on
the natural real-world interactions with which everyone is familiar. As such,
the Black & White hand is really to be viewed as an extension of your own hand.
Allowing the user to manipulate the world using their own natural hand motions
enhances this experience. The P5 creates the illusion that the world behind
the screen is a real world.
More details of this technology can be found at www.essentialreality.com.
For any users who already have the P5, be sure to check up that you have the
latest patches available for Black & White at www.essentialreality.com.
In order to configure the P5 device:
While playing the game, hit ESC to enter the Menu System.
Under the OPTIONS tab, you will see 2 sliders that allows you to control the
acceleration and click sensitivity.
The higher the acceleration, the faster the hand of god will move when you move
your own hand in space. The higher the click sensitivity, the less you have to
bend your fingers to register a click.
-------------------------------------------------------------
7. How to create your own player symbols and Creature tattoos
-------------------------------------------------------------
Black & White comes with 16 pre-defined player symbols/Creature tattoos. The
same images are used for both. You can replace any of these images with your
own. To do so, place a 64x64 greyscale .bmp image (8-bit) called symboln.bmp
(where n is a number from 1 to 16) in your profile directory (default directory
will be c:\program files\Lionhead Studios Ltd\Black & White\profiles\yourname\
- where yourname is the name of the profile you created). The player
logo/Creature tattoo will then be available to select in the usual ways.
To swap back to the default logos/tattoos, simply delete the image files you
created.
Tip: Design your logos on a black background for best results.
-----------------------------------------
8. Network & Out of Sync Recovery Feature
-----------------------------------------
Online Requirements
Internet features require TCP/IP Internet connection at 56Kbps or faster, or
Internet access via LAN (Local Area Network).
Network Problems
Note to AOL® users: If you use AOL or any other system that doesn't use Windows
dial-up networking, you will need to manually connect to the internet before
running the game if you want to use any of the online aspects.
To force Black & White into thinking that there is an OPEN & READY internet
connection you can do the following:
1. Right mouse click on the runBlack.exe file - the default location for this
should be C:\Program Files\Lionhead Studios Ltd\Black & White - and select the
Create Shortcut option.
2. Right mouse click on the Shortcut to runBlack.exe file and select the
Properties option.
3. In the box labeled Target type in the following command at the end of the
path description:
/FORCEINETCONN
4. Click the OK button at the bottom of the box and then double-click the
Shortcut to runBlack.exe to run the game.
To force Black & White into thinking that there is NO internet connection you
can do the following:
1. Right mouse click on the runBlack.exe file - the default location for this
should be C:\Program Files\Lionhead Studios Ltd\Black & White - and select the
Create Shortcut option.
2. Right mouse click on the Shortcut to runBlack.exe file and select the
Properties option.
3. In the box labeled Target type in the following command at the end of the
path description:
/NOINETCONN
4. Click the OK button at the bottom of the box and then double-click the
Shortcut to runBlack.exe to run the game.
Multiplayer - Out Of Synchronization Recovery Feature
-----------------------------------------------------
If a game goes Out Of Sync, data is transferred to all client machines for an
Out Of Sync restart (This may take a few seconds, dependant on the number of
people in the game). This feature can be used as follows:
1. LAN
When waiting for a person to join you in an out-of-sync game, have the "Restore
Out Of Sync" checkbox turned on. The game will then be in "Out Of Sync" restore
mode. You will not be able to change the map (It will be the same map as the
Out Of Sync game). You will only be able to change teams and start the game.
2. Internet
When creating a channel, have the "Restore Out Of Sync" checkbox turned on
(this will only be visible if you have an Out Of Sync restore available).
Only people with the Out Of Sync restore data, sent around when the game went
Out Of Sync, will be able to join you and replay the game. You can change the
teams/clans to how they were in the previous session manually.
Note that Out Of Sync Restore can only be used for a multiplayer game, which is
created straight after the game that went Out Of Sync. If another multiplayer
game is played in the meantime, it is not possible to restore the previous
game.
---------------------
9. Creature Homepages
---------------------
Black & White allows you to publish webpages containing all the information
about your Creature. This information is continuously updated by the game and
stored on your local machine.
You can upload your pages for other people to view by using the
CreatureUpload.exe application. These Creature pages are hosted as part of the
bwgame Creature Page hosting service (www.bwGame.com) and community pages.
There is an external application called "CreatureUpload.exe" (the default
directory for this will be c:\Program Files\Lionhead Studios Ltd\Black &
White\), which allows you to upload your Creature info..
To use this service, you MUST be registered at www.bwgame.com (and therefore
have a username and user password). In addition, you must have played at least
once over the Internet or entered your registration details into the "over the
Internet user details" dialog box in Black & White. You MUST also have a
Creature.
After successfully uploading you can view your Creature page at:
http://www.YOURREGISTRATIONNAME.bwcreatures.com
or http://www.bwcreatures.com/YOURREGISTRATIONNAME
Where YOURREGISTRATIONNAME is the name you chose when registering online.
The images and information about your Creature are also stored on your hard
disk. You can access this information by opening the "html directory" in your
profile directory (.\Profiles\Myregistrationname\html) . This html page is
template based, so you may change it. This does not change your Creature data
however.
It is a normal HTML file with same special keywords which gets parsed whilst
creating the Creature html file. So anybody with basic HTML skills can create
their own template file.
Please note: You cannot upload this offline version to the bwgame Creature
pages.
If you want to upload the offline generated Creature HTML page to your own
webpages, using the default/shipped template file, you may have to change the
path of the images. This can be done at the top of the Creatures html page
(source of file).
-------------------------------------------------
10. Naming your Villagers from your email program
-------------------------------------------------
Black & White can import names from your computer's email contact list and use
these as names for your Villagers. Additionally, Black & White can retrieve the
Subject & From Field from your emails and notify you in-game that you have
received an email from any of your villager contact names. Additionally, if you
are running Black & White and receive an email from a new contact, this name
will be assigned to a Villager, who will notify you of the email.
Black & White supports Microsoft Outlook(TM) or any POP3 compatible Mailbox. It
does NOT support Microsoft Outlook Express(TM).
To activate the email feature, you need to run the Black & White Setup
application, click on the email settings button and select your player profile
from the drop-down list.
Check the first box (check for Internet email) to activate this email feature.
Check the second box if you are using Microsoft Outlook. If you are using a
POP3 mail system, leave this box unchecked and fill out your POP3 server
settings in the fields below.
This feature is only operational in the single player game and also you need to
have done the following:
1. You have registered at www.bwgame.com site
2. You have gone into the Online Game - Find Games on the internet and entered
your username and password at least once.
Email Questions and Answers:
Q:I received a mail while playing Black & White but I can't see a Villager
named after the sender.
A: Black & White stores the sender's name in your personal B&W address book
(addressbook.lhe). The sender's name will be assigned to a Villager the next
time you play the game. Black & White DOES NOT create new villagers based on
the sender's name as soon as you get an email from a person who is not already
in your contact list. Instead a Villager will inform you that you have received
new mail.
Q: How many villagers will be named from my address book?
A: At least one. A random number of villagers will be named from your address
book. The names are randomly selected from your address book. You might not
recognize some named villagers in Black & White. These may be members of the
Lionhead development team.
Q: I've received a mail but it didn't appear in Black & White. I've checked
everything, the settings are all right, the connection is there, but nothing
shows up.
A: Black & White makes decisions about whether it should display a mail or not.
A lot of Internet users have "Leave-Mail-On-Server" feature turned on in their
email programs. Therefore Black & White needs to check the time on the mails on
a POP3 account or in Outlook (which are marked as readable). Otherwise every
mail, including any old mails on your mail account would show up EVERY TIME you
run Black & White. Black & White saves its startup time, so it can compare the
time values of the mails with its own startup time. If Black & White cannot
find out the correct time of a mail (due mail header problems or poor
configuration of the mail servers), it will not show up the mail. Also,
non-standard time zone entries in the mails that don't allow Black & White to
find out how "old" a mail is will be denied. Most mail servers and mail
programs deliver a correct mail header & mail format, however.
Q:I could hear my Outlook mail sound but then it took ages before the mail
showed up in the game.
A: Black & White uses the direct Outlook API to access your Outlook. So Black &
White has to scan all the folders that contain new mails to find out which ones
are new and to get their subject and names fields.
Depending on the amount of mails you have in your folders, it can take some
time. Large folders can take up to several minutes to scan.
Q: I sometimes have to wait a couple of minutes until Black & White starts to
show any received mails, although I have mails in the background.
A: On startup Black & White stores the actual time to have a reference time for
showing mails or ignoring them. Everything BEFORE this time value will NOT be
shown. Everything AFTER this value will make it into the game.
Be sure that you have correct date/time settings on your computer.
Q: I have tried everything; the email feature still does not work with my POP3
mail program.
A: The mail server you're using may not be using the standard protocols.
Q: I'm running Outlook in "Groupware mode" - for example using Microsoft
Exchange Server. But the contact names or email notification doesn't work.
A: If you run Outlook in "Groupware" mode it may not give Black & White the
permissions to read out the contact names and / or checking mails. This is a
limitation with Outlook running in the mode. The supported mode needs to be
"Internet Only". You can select this by changing the Mail Delivery Support in
the Options Menu of Outlook. NOTE: You should not change the method of mail
delivery if you're using Outlook with any Groupmail software like Microsoft
Exchange Server.
--------------------------------
11. Notes on video card chipsets
--------------------------------
