**********************************************************
******************** IMPORTANT NOTICE ********************
**********************************************************

Warning: GL-Excess has been developed and tested on nVidia
-------- video cards only. I have no idea of how it runs
         (if it ever does...) on other video boards.

nVidia owners: For best visual quality please select "Use
-------------- block transfer" as "Buffer flipping mode"
               in your OpenGL Settings. This will prevent
               your screen from flickering on some scenes.

**********************************************************
**********************************************************
**********************************************************



System Requirements:
--------------------

- Pentium II or higher (Pentium III recommended)
  processor

- 64 MB RAM

- Any video card FULLY (when I say FULLY I mean no
  Matrox cards please...) supporting OpenGL
  acceleration

- Sound Blaster 16 or compatible audio card (SBLive!
  with 4 point speakers recommended)

- 40 MBytes of free hard disk space



Video Tweaks:
-------------

- Run GL Excess Configuration program to set desired
  brightness and thus improve color matching

- For best visual quality please enable VSYNC, disable
  it to increase performance

- nVidia owners please read IMPORTNT NOTICE above
