* WHATS NEW IN VERSION 3.2 (5/7/99):
  - Countdown bug fixed. It was restarting a month after it reached its
    target! Sorry! Fixed now! (I hope...)
  - Added years to count down so you can set it to countdown to episode 2.
  - Many other minor bugs fixed.
  - Afew more pics added.

* WHATS NEW IN VERSION 3.1 (2/6/99):
  - Minor bug fix on pic display. I noticed it and couldn't live with it.
  - Bug fix in displaying you're own files. It crashed with certain colours
  - And because I don't wanna do a release without some nifty new feature:
    This R2 unit now contains the plans to the Death Star...
    (You should know what I mean when it happens...)

* WHATS NEW IN VERSION 3.0 (2/6/99):
  - Major memory bug fixed. Now uses alot less! MAJOR FIX.
  - You can now stick your own JPGs in a directory and have it display them
    - For best results resize your jpgs to 256x256 and put them all in a
      dir. Then on the settings screen select Use External Pics and
      select the directory. They'll now he added to the range of
      random pics! Simple!
  - More pics.
  - More displays.
  - Darth Maul in a special 3D appearance!

  - Added all the bits I forgot about for v2.0
  - Added more pics.

  - Made some rarer events less rare...

* WHATS NEW IN VERSION 2.0 (18/5/99):

  - Added alot more pics.
  - Added charactor hologramy-type projections.
  - Added 3D Jawas!

* VERSION 1.0 (26/4/99)
  - Initial release
  - Basic R2 Unit projecting images.. still looked pretty cool if you
    ask me!
  - Only 1 type of projection. The rippling pictures one.

* ARCHIVE CONTENTS

  SWTPMUSS.ZIP
    - SW-TPM Unofficial Screen Saver.scr - Screen Saver file
    - Readme.txt - This file
    - Opengl.dll - SGI's opengl.dll
    - Glu.dll    - Another part of above

* INSTALLATION

  To install, simply copy all files to the windows\system
  folder (normaly C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM). Then go the Display options in 
  Control Panel and in the Screen Saver section select 
  SW-TPM Unofficial Screen Saver!
  NOTE: If you've already had v1.0 on you will be asked whether you want
        to overwrite the old files. There only file you really need to
        overwrite is the main .scr file.

* SETTINGS SCREEN INSTRUCTIONS

  I'd suggest everyone check this out. You can turn the countdown off
  you know...
  To get to the Settings screen go to Control Panel, then Display, then
  to the Screen Saver sections. Make sure you have the SW-TPM Unofficial
  screen saver selected. Click on settings.
  DROID COLOURS: Lets you customize your Astromech to your own colour
                 scheme.
  COUNT DOWN: Tick this box to enable the countdown.
  RELEASE DATE: Set the Day, Month and Year of the date you want it to
                count down to.
  ENABLE SOUNDS: It err.. enables the sounds.
  PICTURE DELAY: Sets the amount of seconds a pic is shown for.
                 (left is short, right is long)
  USE EXTERNAL PICS: Select this to make it display your own pics aswell
                     as the ones already in it. Then select the Drive
                     and directory that your pics are stored in.
                     Pictures must be in JPG format. For best results
                     resize em to 256x256.

* SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS

  Well I can't say the actual requirements cos I can only test it on a 
  limited amount of machines but it runs beautifully on a P166 with
  64MB RAM. Anything above that will be even better! I'd say a P133
  would probably be the minimum.

  IMPORTANT NOTE:
  You must have your colour depth set higher than 256 colours for it 
  to work properly!
  It will work at 256 colours and lower but it wont look right at all!

  256 colours doesn't really cut it these days and I don't think many
  people are still using it but heres how to check:
  Go to Control Panel.
  Go to Display.
  Go to Settings.
  And check what it says for Color Palette. If it's set to 16 color or
  256 color you may like to change it to High Color (16 bit) or 
  True Color (24 Bit). You'll probably find this greatly improves the 
  picture quality while web browsing aswell.

* VERSION 3.2 RELEASE NOTES:

  Well I've now seen this movie 4 times and I love it. I'll still prolly
  see it again before its gone. I really don't know what people are 
  complaining about. I'd like to thank all who emailed telling me the 
  countdown being stuffed, you were all right! This will probably be
  the last version of this at least for some time. I'm hangin to show
  off what I've done to the Doctor Who one.

  Oh and if you find a bug please send me a detailed email. I keep 
  getting: "It doesn't work." Seriously. Strong am I with the Force...
  But not that strong. I need more info. Thanks!

* VERSION 3.1 RELEASE NOTES:

  AARRGGHH!! I was sitting watching v3.0 and spotted a bug with one of the
  pictures and couldn't live with it. So now it should be fixed. There was
  also a bug that could cause wierd results if you had a pic with certain
  colours. This is now fixed too (I hope). And finally I didn't want to
  do a release of just bug fixes so I added the Death Star plans to R2's 
  memory banks... Thats it! I'm in a hurry. Its 9pm. Only 3hours to do
  til the midnight premiere of Star Wars: The Phantom Menace here in
  Australia. I'll be in seat N20 at Crown Cinemas. See you there!

* VERSION 3.0 RELEASE NOTES:

  Well with only 24 hours til I get to finally see this movie I decided to 
  release the 3rd (possibly final) version. The main reason is because I
  fixed a major memory bug in the old versions which meant it just ate up
  memory. Now it doesn't. Yay. Also I was hangin to put Darth Maul in. 
  Altho I bet he's crap compared to Vader! And I had some requests to
  let you put your own pics in. Done! Enjoy!

* VERSION 2.1 RELEASE NOTES:

  Ok ok its only been 24 hours since v2.0 but I got a flash of inspiration
  and decided to added just one more thing. I also sound afew things that
  needed fixing after running v2.0 for a day. Nothing major. Nothing 
  even that anyone but me will notice. But that kind of thing annoys me
  so I did it anyway. So there. Enjoy.

* VERSION 2 RELEASE NOTES:

  Seeing as it was downloaded so much in the 1st day that my ISPs link got 
  maxed out I decided to add to it. Well.. that and I did a 3D Jawa that
  I really liked and wanted to add. So again I've rushed out an untested
  release and I've beaten the US release date of the movie by afew hours!
  So here it is... Enjoy! And let me know what you think!

* VERSION 1 RELEASE NOTES:

  Well this is my idea of a simple slideshow screen saver thingy. An 
  Astromech droid (lets not call it R2D2 cos the 3D model isn't perfect)
  scoots around projecting images from the upcoming Star Wars movie.
  I used OpenGL for the 3D routines so it requires SGI's OpenGL DLL files.
  These are included in the archive. See the end of this file for the 
  licencing info. I really hope I've done this right I don't really 
  understand the legal stuff. 

  The pics used were gathered from around the web. Mainly from the official
  site, www.starwars.com, and TheForce.Net. I hope noone minds. All
  pictures and Star Wars related stuff is all owned and copyright to 
  LucasFilm. I've just done this cos I'm a major fan.

  Seeing as the movie is nearly out in the US I've rushed to release this.
  I had the idea about a week ago so this has been coded quickly and barely
  tested so use it at your own risk! I take no responsibility for those
  sparks shooting out the back of your PC, or anything else for that 
  matter!

  Well I think that's all. If you're reading this you've got a rare version
  cos as soon as I wake up and come to my senses I'll probably write a 
  decent readme file.

  Thanks to all the foools who tested this and told me what sucked!

  If you use this and enjoy it email me and let me know!
  
  I'm an umemployed amateur programmer so if you've got a job for me
  let me know!!

  Oh and if you're gunna stick this on a CD or a magazine or something
  please send me an email! I don't usually mind I'd just like to know.
  And I'll probably buy a copy! Actually.. can I have a free copy?

  Saver (sorry about this delaying the new version)) go to the homepage:

  PS: George Lucas Rules!
  PPS: Can I have a job at ILM please? Thanks!
  PPPS: Or how about an acting job??
