=====================================================
= Unofficial 1.1.3+ update pack for Aquaria =
=====================================================


This version comes with bug fixes, speed enhancements, and a bunch of new features.

A drawback is that older mods made for 1.1.1 won't work anymore.

When you apply this update, keep a copy of the original Aquaria exe/app/binary around,
if you want to play older mods.



====================================
= Troubleshooting & Useful Tricks: =
====================================

- If these builds crash, explode, or behave weird, do not blame bit-blot, they have nothing to do with it.
  Report bugs to me. Scroll down for contact infos.

- The saves, screenshots and config (usersettings.xml) are located at the following locations:
  * Windows: Program Directory.
  * Linux: ~/.Aquaria/
  * Mac OSX: /Users/<USER>/Library/Application Support/Aquaria/
    Note: On OSX Lion, the Library folder is hidden by default. Paste the following into a terminal to make it visible:
        chflags nohidden ~/Library

- If the game runs very slow and you have an Intel graphics card, set displaylists="0" in your usersettings.xml file.
  (Displaylists turned off is the default, because it reduces performance on many systems.)

- If sound cuts out or singing/shooting rapidly causes stuttering, try prebuffering game audio.
  To do this, set <Prebuffer on="1" /> in your usersettings.xml.

- There have been cases on windows where TextPad broke the Esc key to open the menu.

- If mouse control is all weird, disable joystick/gamepad support.
  There might be a program/device active that sends bogus joystick commands.

- Aquaria captures your mouse. If you use it in windowed mode, press Ctrl+G to ungrab the cursor so it can leave the window.
  It can be re-grabbed with the same key combo.

- Savegames are compatible across game versions and operating systems. Copy and enjoy.

- If you use multiple operating systems and own a copy of the game for only one OS,
  you can easily crossgrade. Get an executable for your respective OS and copy the data files.

- There is now a quick-quit option: Alt+F4 on Windows and Linux, or Command+Q on Mac OSX.

- Visit http://www.bit-blot.com/forum/ for anything else.


===============================
= Notes some config settings: =
===============================

In your usersettings.xml, you can set the following options:

** AUDIO: **

<Prebuffer on="1" />
This uses more RAM and the game takes slightly longer to load,
but it needs less CPU & time when decoding audio.


** VIDEO: **

<Blur on="1" />
Activates an additional blur effect for spirit form.

<NoteEffects on="1" />
When Naija sings, the notes around her will have an additional glow and emit water ripples.

<ShortLogos on="1" />
If this is enabled, the short intro scene when starting the game (birds, windmills, dragon)
will be skipped.


===============
= Disclaimer: =
===============
This build comes with absolutely no warranty - use at your own risk.
It should work fine though, I use it all the time.
