Notes

  • Like the final game, this build can not be ran without a disc drive installed to the computer.
  • Unlike the final game, it will not tell you that you need a disc drive but will rather ask you to verify that no other application is using the disc drive.
  • The button "Start Turok" on the splash does not work. You have to start the game via the File menu's "Start Turok" option.

║ The recent  RAZOR.NFO  files  have been  full  of propoganda  and  twisted ║
║ explanations  of events, all for the sole  purpose of trying to make CLASS ║
║ look  "bad" and make  RAZOR look "good".  RAZORs  story  changes about  as ║
║ often as  CLASS releases.  4 Months  ago they  were  denouncing  the  SPA, ║
║ while  today they  quote the  rules  the SPA set  up.  RAZOR wants you  to ║
║ believe CLASS  purposely released Postal in  the condition it was in, just ║
║ to laugh  at the end user when they  were unable to  play it.  RAZOR  also ║
║ made  it out as if CLASS  had no intention  of putting out a  fix, when in ║
║ fact a fix  for the  game had  been made, and  was still  being tested  to ║
║ prevent  any future fixes.  RAZOR  said CLASS took  too long to put  out a ║
║ fix (24 hours), yet  it took RAZOR  72 hours to  put  out a  fix  for  Red ║
║ Alert: Aftermath.                                                          ║
║                                                                            ║
║ RAZOR is  just feeding  you lies  everytime  you read  one of  their  .NFO ║
║ files.  The most  recent  lie is when  RAZOR stated  they would no  longer ║
║ "rag" in  their .NFO  files, which  lasted  about  1  release, or  1  week ║
║ depending on  how you look  at it.  RAZOR  also claims all  CLASS puts out ║
║ are sub par games  that do not work.  This could not be  further from  the ║
║ truth  and the  following  list  has been  compiled to  prove  just  that. ║
║ CLASS knows  this will not quiet the  mouths at RAZOR, but will  hopefully ║
║ remind the end user what has gone on in the games  scene recently  and who ║
║ has been bringing you the BEST PC games.                                   ║

║ Numbers  do not  lie, RAZOR  however  does.  If you  were to  average  the ║
║ ratings from TRG of games released by both groups in August and September, ║
║ CLASS would have 72%  and RAZOR would have 75%  This  does no justice  for ║
║ the  claim RAZOR  makes about  CLASS releases  being  below par.  In fact, ║
║ CLASS won the "Game of the Month" in both months, and received the HIGHEST ║
║ rating ever  given by TRG (Total Annihilation [97%]) while  RAZOR received ║
║ the lowest rating ever (Man of War [25%]).                                 ║
║                                                                            ║
║ There are the facts, which is the complete opposite of what RAZOR preaches ║
║ to  you in  their .NFOs.  Upset?  Betrayed?  Just  plain  pissed off?  Let ║
║ them know how you feel about this via E-Mail ([email protected])  He ║

║  Due to the overwhelming amount of feedback we  got about artists, we are  ║
║  going  to try  this  again.  First,  we are looking  for people  who can  ║
║  supply HARDWARE to our group.  Most  importantly 3DFX Cards, MMX  Chips,  ║
║  and Hard Drives.  If you think you are able to help out, contact us ASAP  ║
║  to be rewarded.  Second, we are looking for DEMO's (4k, 64k, even 4MB if  ║
║  they are good enough)  with a CLASS theme.  The DEMO Scene and our Scene  ║
║  used to be tightly knit.  Today, you are lucky if anyone  knows what the  ║
║  DEMO  Scene is.  We would like to  change that, and give the  DEMO Scene  ║
║  some much needed exposure, especially here  in the USA.  Lastly, we just  ║
║  wanted to thank everyone for all  the positive feedback we have received  ║
║  over the past few weeks.  It's nice to know our work is appreciated.  So  ║
║  if  can help us  out in  any way, don't delay, contact  us today at  the  ║
