I. INTRODUCTION

Welcome to Soldier of Fortune Gold! This new addition from Raven software offers several game enhancements to the Soldier of Fortune single and multi-player experience, and addresses some issues that shipped with the original release of the game. 

Please read through this document to familiarize yourself with the new game features. In addition to basic descriptions of what’s new, this document also provides some detailed technical information so you can get the most out of your Soldier of Fortune Gold playing experience.  

IMPORTANT: You will need to make sure you have an additional 50 MB of uncompressed hard disk space available for the additional Soldier of Fortune Gold files. You will also need to have your original Soldier of Fortune CD ROM to play the game.


II. GOLD EDITION FEATURES

REWORKED ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE: 
If you attempt to play through the single player portion of Soldier of Fortune Gold, you may notice that the game isn’t quite as easy as you remember. You may also notice that the enemy reactions are a bit quicker than the original release version of S.O.F. The enemies in this release may dodge your shots a little better and they may target you a little more quickly than you’re used to. It’s all part of what we like to call “reworked AI.” Are you up to the challenge?


NEW DEATHMATCH MODES:
Control: 
Control is a new team deathmatch mode for Soldier of Fortune Gold. The object of Control is to touch the flags that are on the map in order to turn them to your team's color.  Each team gains points for any flag under their control, and owning all of the flags on a map gives bonus points to the controlling team.  The opposing team can steal flags from your control by touching them.  You can watch the flag indicator on your screen while you play to see which team is controlling the flags.

Setting up a Control Game:
Listen server
NOTE: Any player running a Listen server should make sure that their computer is the faster machine on the LAN.  

1. Boot the game and proceed to the “Multiplayer” Menu.
2. Select the “Start a Server” tab. 
3. Choose the “RAVCON” map list under “List File Selection.” This is important.
4. Under “Deathmatch Type” choose “Control.” This is also very important. 
5. Configure your server settings on the “Game Settings” menu. Note that there are specific options for adjusting the “Control Score Limit,” which designates the score you want to play to; and “CTF/Control Force Join,” which allows you to select whether or not joining players are automatically added to a team. 
6. Select the color of the team you wish to join on the “Multiplayer Options” menu.

Dedicated server 
This server option is best suited for games with a large number of players. Additional Dedicated server commands may be found in the “Compatibility List” of the Soldier of Fortune online manual.

1. Press the Windows Start menu button, and go to Programs > Raven Software >> Soldier of Fortune, and select the “Run Dedicated Server” icon.
2. Once the server is running and the console is available, enter “deathmatch 6” to change the play mode to Control. 
3. Enter the name of the map you want to play on (ex: enter “map dm/irqcon1” to play on the Power Plant level), or you can alternately enter the name of the map list with the following command: “sv_maplistfile ravcon”. Remember that you can only use the RAVCON maps to play control. 
4. Enter “control_limit XXX” (where XXX is the number of the score you want to play to) to set the scoring limit. 
5. To set your Control Bonus (the amount of bonus points a team acquires when they are controlling all 3 flags), enter “control_bonus XXX” (where XXX is the number of bonus points you want the controlling team to receive).

Conquer the Bunker: 
Conquer the Bunker is a “king of the hill” style game that can be played in teams or as a free-for-all deathmatch extravaganza. In Conquer the Bunker, there is one scoring zone on the map that gives you points for as long as you stay in the scoring zone.  The scoring zone is marked with a special “Soldier of Fortune” logo for easy recognition.  

Setting up a Conquer the Bunker Game: 
On a Listen server
Please see the instructions for Setting up a Control Game above. When you get to steps 3 and 4, choose “RAVCTB” under “List File Selection” and choose “Conquer the Bunker” under “Deathmatch Type.”
	
On a Dedicated server 
Please see the instructions for setting up a Control game on a dedicated server above. Additional dedicated server commands are available in the “Compatibility List” section of the Soldier of Fortune online manual. Enter “Deathmatch 7” in the console for a Conquer the Bunker server, and enter “sv_maplistfile ravctb” to load the Conquer the Bunker maps. Remember that Conquer the Bunker is only playable on the RAVCTB maps.


NEW LEVELS:
There are 18 new levels in the Soldier of Fortune Gold enhancement pack. Standard Deathmatch, Assassin, and Arsenal are readily playable on all of the new maps. Please be aware that you can only play the new game modes on the specific maps for which they are intended. In other words, you can only play Conquer the Bunker on the specific CTB maps, in the same way that you can only play Control on the Control-specific maps, and Capture the Flag on the CTF-specific maps. 

RAVCON Maps
dm/irqcon1 - Power Plant (6 to 12 players) 
dm/koscon1 - Street Fight (4 to 8 players)
dm/koscon2 - Airfield (6 to 12 players)
dm/jpncon1 - Rooftop (6 to 10 players)
dm/sibcon1 - Cold Front (8 to 12 players)
dm/gercon1 - Castle (8 to 12 players)
dm/sudcon1 - S.I. (6 to 16 players)

RAVCTB Maps
dm/sudctb1 - Meat Plant (8 to 12 players)
dm/kosctb1 - Old Town (6 to 10 players)
dm/irqctb1 - Oil Toil (6 to 10 players)
dm/irqctb2 - Cargo Plane (8 to 12 players)
dm/irqctb3 - Building (6 to 12 players)
dm/jpnctb1 - Clean Room (6 to 12 players)
dm/sibctb1 - Icelock (4 to 8 players)
dm/sibctb2 - Snowbase (6 to 12 players)
dm/nycctb1 - Pendulum (8 to 12 players)
dm/nycctb2 - Death Barge (8 to 12 players)
dm/gerctb1 - Castle Gate (5 to 12 players)


NEW TEAM MODELS:
There are six new player models available from the “Configure Player” menu. Simply scroll through the teams until you see “Capture, Inc.,” where you can select from “Assault,” “Brick,” “Cobra,” “Commando,” “Jersey,” or “Widowmaker,” and you’re ready to go! 

NEW BOT DEATHMATCH:
If you really want to hone your S.O.F. deathmatch skills, there’s no better practice than a bot-match. For those new to first-person shooters, bots are AI controlled opponents. Soldier of Fortune Gold supports bot play in Standard Free-for-all mode and Arsenal ONLY. 

IMPORTANT NOTE: Bots are NOT designed to function in any of the team modes. Realistic, Assassin, Control, Capture the Flag, and Conquer the Bunker modes are not designed to work with Bots.

To set up a Bot-match: Starting a Bot match is easy. Start up a normal Listen server and you can add bots from the “BOT SETTINGS” menu in the “Start a Server” screen. You should avoid logging onto WON (and being connected to the Internet) in order to play with the bots, which you can do from the “Multiplayer Options” menu. Just toggle “LAN Play Only” to “ON.” 

Bot Console Commands: You can manually add/remove bots from the console of a listen or dedicated server by typing “bot_add <botname>” or “bot_rem <botname>”. You can add a specific bot to a specific player slot by typing “bot_nameXX botname” where XX is the slot number (2…30) and “botname” is the actual name of the bot, like Mullins, Dekker, or Hide. You can remove a specific bot by typing “bot_nameXX ??????” where XX is the slot number of the bot to be removed. The ?????? is actually what you need to type to empty that slot.  The SOF console can be enabled by adding: “+set console 1” (without the quotes) in the target line of the SOF shortcut.

PURE SERVERS:
Soldier of Fortune Gold features pure server filtering for multiplayer games. Any Soldier of Fortune multiplayer server that is running un-modified content is considered a “Pure Server.” By default, the Pure Server option will be set to "Locked Out" under the Violence Lock menu. When this option is locked out, you will only see multiplayer games in
the server browser that are running the un-modified version of Soldier of Fortune Gold (v. 1.06). Enabling this feature will allow you to see all servers, including ones that are running code that has been modified by the user community (i.e. MODs).

IMPORTANT NOTE: The pure Server option will not be available for German and Low-Violence versions of Soldier of Fortune.  Since this option is only accessed on the parental lockout screen, the Low-Violence S.o.F. versions will not have access to this setting.

To enable browsing of un-Pure Servers:
1. From the Soldier of Fortune main menu, proceed to the Violence Lock options screen by clicking the “lock” icon.
2. Enter your Violence Lock password, or click “Enter Password” if you do not have one set. 
3. At the bottom of the Violence Lock options menu is the Pure Servers setting. Click the option to “Enabled,” if you wish to browse and play on “un-Pure” servers.


III. GENERAL TECHNICAL ISSUES

Previously Saved Games:
Please be aware that any previously created Soldier of Fortune saved-game files will not work after you install the 1.06 patch.

Previous Patches: 
The Internet downloadable version of Soldier of Fortune Gold (1.06) can be installed over any of the previous Soldier of Fortune Beta patches. If you have previously installed the 1.04 or 1.05 Beta patch, you can simply run the Soldier of Fortune 1.06 patch and play.
 
Un-installing: 
If you have applied the Soldier of Fortune Gold 1.06 patch and you decide to un-install the game, please be sure to delete your Soldier of Fortune program folder from your hard drive, as there are several files that the patch installs, which un-installation will not remove.


IV. TROUBLE SHOOTING GENERAL GAME ISSUES

OpenGL:
Windows NT v4.0, Windows 2000, Windows 98, and Windows 95 (OSR2) all ship with OpenGL v1.1, so if you are using one of these operating systems, you shouldn’t experience any problems. However, earlier versions of Windows 95 may not have OpenGL v1.1 installed. If you have an earlier version of Windows 95 and you don't have OpenGL installed, then you should download Microsoft's OpenGL for Windows 95 from the Microsoft site at:
http://download.microsoft.com/download/win95upg/info/1/W95/EN-US/Opengl95.exe 
or 
ftp://ftp.microsoft.com/softlib/mslfiles/opengl95.exe 
This contains opengl32.dll, which is needed to run OpenGL programs under Win95. Check the READ ME for installation instructions. OpenGL 1.1 is bundled with Windows NT 4.0.

Joysticks:
General information on setting up your joystick for play with Soldier of Fortune Gold may be found in the “Joysticks” section of the “Compatibility List” in the Soldier of Fortune Online manual.
If you have any issues with joystick calibration, please verify that your joystick is properly configured in Windows (i.e., latest drivers, set to ID 1, and joystick is calibrated). You can then launch the game and proceed to the Options menu. At the bottom of the Options Menu, select “Configure Joystick.” On the next screen make sure Joystick is selected to “On.” Here is an example config that works:

Advanced joystick ON 

X-axis - 3
Y-axis - 1
Z-axis - 0
R-axis - 4
U-axis - 0
V-axis - 0

Forward Threshold - all the way left
Side Threshold - all the way left
Pitch Threshold - all the way left
Yaw Threshold - all the way left
Up Threshold - all the way left

Forward Sensitivity - all the way left (-)
Side Sensitivity - all the way right (+)
Pitch Sensitivity - all the way left (-)
Yaw Sensitivity - all the way left (-)
Up Sensitivity - all the way left (-) 

Explanation
For the axis and the numbers here is a KEY of what the numbers mean:
1- Forward/Backward
2- Trackball use
3- Step left/right
4- Turn left/right, also for trackball
5- Crouch/jump
6- ?
7- ?
Use the relative settings for trackballs.

X- Left/Right
Y- Forward/Back
Z- Throttle
R- Twist
U- Trackball
V- Trackball

Thresholds - The more you will have to move the joystick before any effect is registered, this means that when the joystick is about centered you will not drift.

Forward - How fast you move forward and back. Less effort with the joystick if to the left.
Side - How fast you strafe left and right. Less effort with the joystick if to the left.
Pitch - Speed of which you can pitch your aim.
Yaw - How fast you can turn left and right. Less effort with the joystick if to the left.
Up - ?

Sensitivity - The sliders act as multipliers to the input values and the potential to invert the axis.
Forward - How sensitive you go forward and backwards. Negative value - no invert
Side - How sensitive you step left and right. Positive value - no invert
Pitch - How sensitive it is to pitch up to aim. Negative value - no invert
Yaw - how sensitive you turn left and right. Negative value - no invert
Up - ?

Forgotten Violence Password:
****IMPORTANT: We can only provide this password fix for customers located in NORTH AMERICA****

If you forget your Violence Lock Password, and cannot access the violence lock, you will have to:
1) Fax (310-255-2151) or email ( [email protected] ) a CLEAR copy YOUR VALID ID (drivers license, student ID, passport) with your birth date so that we can verify your age .
2) Include your phone number and the best time to reach you so that a Supervisor can call you back.
3) You MUST be at the computer to fix the violence lock when we call you back. We will walk you through the procedure to change the password.

I. EINLEITUNG

Herzlich willkommen zur Gold-Edition von Soldier of Fortune! Diese Zusatzausgabe von Raven Software bietet zahlreiche Verbesserungen zum Spiel, sowohl im Einzel- wie auch im Mehrspieler-Modus, und behebt Probleme, die bei Veröffentlichung der Originalversion nicht behoben werden konnten. 

Bitte lesen Sie sich dieses Dokument sorgfältig durch, damit Sie sich mit den neuen Features vertraut machen können. Zusätzlich zu einer Grundbeschreibung der Neuheiten enthält dieses Dokument detaillierte technische Informationen, damit Sie das Äußerste aus Ihrer Gold-Edition von Soldier of Fortune herausholen können.  

HINWEIS: Vergewissern Sie sich, dass Sie zusätzliche 50 &#61517;&#61506; freien Festplattenspeicher zur Verfügung haben, bevor Sie den Gold-Patch von Soldier of Fortune installieren. Um das gepatchte Spiel zu starten, muss sich die Original-Soldier-of-Fortune-CD-ROM in Ihrem Laufwerk befinden.


II. FEATURES DER GOLD-EDITION

ÜBERARBEITETE KÜNSTLICHE INTELLIGENZ: 
Wenn Sie den Einzelspieler-Modus von Soldier of Fortune Gold spielen, werden sie möglicherweise feststellen, dass das Spiel nicht mehr so leicht ist wie Sie es noch in Erinnerung haben. Sie werden vielleicht auch bemerken, dass die Reaktionen der Gegner ein wenig schneller sind als in der Originalversion. Die Feinde in dieser Version weichen Ihren Schüssen besser aus und zielen schneller auf Sie als Sie es gewohnt sind. All das ist Teil davon, was wir 'überarbeitete KI' nennen. Sind Sie bereit für diese Herausforderung?


NEUE DEATHMATCH-MODI:
Control: 
'Control' ist ein neuer Team-Deathmatch-Modus für Soldier of Fortune Gold. Das Ziel von 'Control' ist, die Flaggen im Level zu berühren, damit sie die Farbe Ihres Teams annehmen. Die Teams erhalten Punkte für jede Flagge in ihrer Gewalt, besitzt ein Team alle Flaggen eines Levels, gibt es Bonuspunkte. Das gegnerische Team kann durch Berühren einer Flagge aus Ihrem Besitz diese Ihnen abnehmen. Anhand der Flaggenanzeige auf dem Bildschirm während des Spiels können Sie sehen, welches Team wie viele Flaggen besitzt. 

Start eines 'Control'-Spiels:
Listen-Server
HINWEIS: Alle Spieler, die einen Listen-Server verwenden, sollten sich vergewissern, dass ihr Rechner der schnellste im LAN ist.  

1. Starten Sie das Spiel und begeben Sie sich in das 'Mehrspieler'-Menü.
2. Wählen Sie die Option 'Server starten'. 
3. Wählen Sie die 'RAVCON'-Levelliste unter 'Auswahl Levelabfolge'. Dies ist sehr wichtig.
4. Unter 'Deathmatch-Art' wählen Sie 'Control'. Auch dies ist sehr wichtig. 
5. Konfigurieren Sie Ihre Server-Einstellungen im Menü 'Spieleinstellungen'. Beachten Sie, dass es bestimmte Optionen zur Einstellung des 'Control Score Limit' (Control-Punktlimit) gibt, das die Punktzahl angibt, um die es in Ihrem Spiel geht. Dasselbe gilt für 'CTF/Control Force Join' (CTF/Autom. Teamzuweisung – Control), wo Sie wählen können, ob beitretende Spieler automatisch einem Team zugewiesen werden sollen oder nicht. 
6. Wählen Sie die Farbe des Teams, dem Sie beitreten möchten, im Menü 'Mehrspieler-Optionen'.

Dedicated Server 
Diese Server-Option eignet sich am besten für Spiele mit einer großen Anzahl an Spielern. Zusätzliche Dedicated-Server-Befehle finden Sie in der Kompatibilitätsliste des Online-Handbuchs von Soldier of Fortune.

1. Drücken Sie den Start-Button in der Windows-Startleiste, gehen Sie auf Programme > Raven Software >> Soldier of Fortune, und wählen Sie hier den Eintrag 'Dedicated Server starten'.
2. Sobald der Server läuft und die Konsole verfügbar ist, geben Sie 'deathmatch 6' ein, um in den Spielmodus 'Control' zu wechseln. 
3. Geben Sie den Namen des Levels ein, den Sie spielen möchten (geben Sie z. B. 'map dm/irqcon1' ein, um den Kernkraftwerk-Level zu spielen), oder geben Sie alternativ den Namen der Levelliste mit dem folgenden Befehl ein: 'sv_maplistfile ravcon'. Denken Sie daran, dass Sie die RAVCON-Level nur verwenden können, um Control zu spielen. 
4. Geben Sie 'control_limit XXX' ein (wobei XXX die Punktzahl ist, um die es in Ihrem Spiel geht), um das Punktlimit festzulegen. 
5. Um Ihren Control-Bonus festzulegen (die Zahl der Bonuspunkte, die ein Team erhält, wenn es alle drei Flaggen in seinem Besitz hat) geben Sie 'control_bonus XXX' ein (wobei XXX die Anzahl an Bonuspunkten ist, die das Besitzerteam erhalten soll).

Conquer the Bunker: 
'Conquer the Bunker' (Stürmung des Bunkers) kann in Teams oder als Free-for-all-Deathmatch-Variante gespielt werden. In 'Conquer the Bunker' gibt es eine Punktzone im Level, in der Sie Punkte erhalten, solange Sie sich in dieser Zone aufhalten. Die Punktzone ist mit einem speziellen 'Soldier of Fortune'-Logo gekennzeichnet, damit Sie sie auch leicht erkennen.  

Start eines 'Conquer the Bunker'-Spiels: 
Auf einem Listen-Server
Wie Sie ein Control-Spiel starten, sehen Sie oben. Sind Sie bei Schritt 3 und 4 angelangt, wählen Sie 'RAVCTB' unter 'Auswahl Levelabfolge' und dann 'Conquer the Bunker' unter 'Deathmatch-Art'.
	
Auf einem Dedicated Server 
Bitte lesen Sie oben die Anweisungen zum Start eines Control-Spiels auf einem Dedicated Server. Zusätzliche Dedicated-Server-Befehle finden Sie in der Kompatibilitätsliste im Online-Handbuch von Soldier of Fortune. Geben Sie 'Deathmatch 7' in die Konsole ein, um einen 'Conquer the Bunker'-Server zu starten, und dann 'sv_maplistfile ravctb', um die 'Conquer the Bunker'-Level zu laden. Denken Sie daran, dass Sie 'Conquer the Bunker' nur auf den RAVCTB-Leveln spielen können.


NEUE LEVEL:
Es gibt 18 neue Level in der Gold-Edition von Soldier of Fortune. Standard-Deathmatch, Kopfgeldjäger und Arsenal können alle auf den neuen Leveln gespielt werden. Bitte beachten Sie, dass Sie die neuen Spielmodi nur auf bestimmten Leveln spielen können, die für den jeweiligen Modus vorgesehen sind. Mit anderen Worten: Sie können 'Conquer the Bunker' nur auf bestimmten CTB-Leveln spielen, so wie Sie auch 'Control' nur auf bestimmten 'Control'-Leveln und 'Capture the Flag' nur auf bestimmten CTF-Leveln spielen können.

RAVCON-Level
dm/irqcon1 - Power Plant (6 bis 12 Spieler) 
dm/koscon1 - Street Fight (4 bis 8 Spieler)
dm/koscon2 - Airfield (6 bis 12 Spieler)
dm/jpncon1 - Rooftop (6 bis 10 Spieler)
dm/sibcon1 - Cold Front (8 bis 12 Spieler)
dm/gercon1 - Castle (8 bis 12 Spieler)
dm/sudcon1 - S.I. (6 bis 16 Spieler)

RAVCTB-Level
dm/sudctb1 - Meat Plant (8 bis 12 Spieler)
dm/kosctb1 - Old Town (6 bis 10 Spieler)
dm/irqctb1 - Oil Toil (6 bis 10 Spieler)
dm/irqctb2 - Cargo Plane (8 bis 12 Spieler)
dm/irqctb3 - Building (6 bis 12 Spieler)
dm/jpnctb1 - Clean Room (6 bis 12 Spieler)
dm/sibctb1 - Icelock (4 bis 8 Spieler)
dm/sibctb2 - Snowbase (6 bis 12 Spieler)
dm/nycctb1 - Pendulum (8 bis 12 Spieler)
dm/nycctb2 - Death Barge (8 bis 12 Spieler)
dm/gerctb1 - Castle Gate (5 bis 12 Spieler)


NEUE TEAM-MODELS:
Es gibt sechs neue Spielermodels, die Sie im Menü 'Spieler konfigurieren' auswählen können. Scrollen Sie einfach durch die Teams, bis Sie 'Capture, Inc.' sehen, wo Sie dann zwischen 'Assault', 'Brick', 'Cobra', 'Commando', 'Jersey' oder 'Widowmaker' auswählen können. 

NEUES BOT-DEATHMATCH:
Wenn Sie wirklich Ihre S.O.F.-Deathmatch-Fähigkeiten schärfen möchten, gibt es keine bessere Übung als ein Bot-Match. Für all diejenigen, die noch keine Erfahrung mit Ego-Shootern haben: Bots sind KI-gesteuerte Gegner. Soldier of Fortune Gold unterstützt Bot-Spiele NUR im Standard-Free-for-all-Modus und Arsenal.
 
WICHTIGER HINWEIS: Bots sind NICHT dafür entworfen, in allen Team-Modi zu funtionieren. In den Modi Realistisch, Kopfgeldjäger, Control, Capture the Flag und Conquer the Bunker funktionieren die Bots nicht.

Start eines Bot-Matchs: Der Start eines Bot-Spiels ist einfach. Starten Sie einen normalen Listen Server, worauf Sie dann Bots aus dem Menü 'BOT SETTINGS' im Bildschirm 'Server starten' hinzufügen können. Sie sollten vermeiden, sich im WON einzuloggen (und sich mit dem Internet zu verbinden), um mit den Bots zu spielen, was Sie wiederum vom Menü 'Mehrspieler-Optionen' aus tun können. Stellen Sie einfach 'Nur LAN-Spiel' auf 'EIN'. 

Befehle für die Bot-Konsole: Sie können Bots von der Konsole eines Listen- oder Dedicated Servers manuell hinzufügen bzw. entfernen, indem Sie 'bot_add <Bot-Name>' zum Hinzufügen oder 'bot_rem <Bot-Name>' zum Entfernen eingeben. Sie können einen bestimmten Bot einem bestimmten Spieler zuweisen, indem Sie 'bot_nameXX Bot-Name' eingeben, wobei XX die Platznummer ist (2…30) und 'Bot-Name' der eigentliche Name des Bot wie beispielsweise Mullins, Dekker etc. Sie können einen bestimmten Bot entfernen, indem Sie 'bot_nameXX ??????' eingeben, wobei XX die Platznummer des zu entfernenden Bots ist. Die Fragezeichen '??????' stehen für das, was Sie eintippen müssen, um den Platz zu leeren.


III. ALLGEMEINE TECHNISCHE ANGABEN

Spiele speichern:
Bitte beachten Sie, dass Spielstände der Original-Version von Soldier of Fortune mit der Installation von Patch 1.06 verloren gehen.

Bereits erschienene Patches: 
Die im Internet downloadbare Version von Soldier of Fortune Gold (1.06) kann über alle bereits erschienenen Beta-Patches von Soldier of Fortune installiert werden. Haben Sie bereits Beta-Patch 1.04 oder 1.05 installiert, können Sie einfach den Soldier-of-Fortune-Patch 1.06 starten und ein Spiel beginnen.
 
Deinstallation: 
Haben Sie den Soldier-of-Fortune-Gold-Patch 1.06 installiert und wollen ihn wieder deinstallieren, löschen Sie Ihren Soldier-of-Fortune-Programmordner von Ihrer Festplatte, da der Patch mehrere Dateien installiert, die nicht durch die Deinstallation entfernt werden.


IV. PROBLEMBEHEBUNG UND ALLGEMEINE HINWEISE

OpenGL:
Windows NT v4.0, Windows 2000, Windows 98 und Windows 95 (OSR2) beinhalten OpenGL v1.1. Wenn Sie also eines dieser Betriebssysteme verwenden, sollten keine Probleme auftauchen. Frühere Versionen von Windows 95 enthalten möglicherweise kein OpenGL. In diesem Fall sollten Sie Microsofts OpenGL für Windows 95 von der Microsoft-Website herunterladen:
http://download.microsoft.com/download/win95upg/info/1/W95/EN-US/Opengl95.exe 
oder 
ftp://ftp.microsoft.com/softlib/mslfiles/opengl95.exe 
Dort finden Sie opengl32.dll, das Sie benötigen, um OpenGL-Programme unter Windows 95 zu starten. In der Readme-Datei zu diesem Programm erhalten Sie Anweisungen zur Installation. In Windows NT 4.0 ist OpenGL 1.1 bereits enthalten.

Joysticks:
Allgemeine Informationen zur Kalibrierung eines Joysticks zum Spielen von Soldier of Fortune Gold finden Sie im Abschnitt 'Joysticks' der Kompatibilitätsliste im Online-Handbuch von Soldier of Fortune.
Sollten Probleme bei der Kalibrierung des Joysticks auftreten, vergewissern Sie sich, dass Ihr Joystick korrekt unter Windows konfiguriert wurde (d. h. neueste Treiber, auf ID 1 gestellt und der Joystick ist kalbriert). Sie können dann das Spiel starten und ins Optionsmenü gehen. Am unteren Rand des Optionsmenüs wählen Sie 'Joystick konfigurieren'. Im darauf folgenden Bildschirm sollte die Joystick-Option auf 'Ein' gestellt sein. Hier sehen Sie ein Beispiel einer Konfiguration:

Erweiterter Joystick EIN 

X-Achse - 3
Y-Achse - 1
Z-Achse - 0
R-Achse - 4
U-Achse - 0
V-Achse - 0

Reaktionspunkt vorne – ganz nach links
Reaktionspunkt Seite – ganz nach links
Reaktionspunkt Pitch – ganz nach links
Reaktionspunkt Yaw – ganz nach links

Empfindlichkeit vorne – ganz nach links (-)
Empfindlichkeit Seite – ganz nach rechts (+)
Empfindlichkeit Pitch – ganz nach links (-)
Empfindlichkeit Yaw – ganz nach links (-)

Erklärung
Hier wird erläutert, was die Achsen und die Zahlen bedeuten:
1- Vorwärts/Rückwärts
2- Verwendung des Trackballs
3- Schritt links/rechts
4- Nach links/rechts drehen, auch Trackball
5- Ducken/Springen
6- ?
7- ?
Verwenden Sie die Standard-Einstellungen der Trackballs.

X- Links/rechts
Y- Vorwärts/Rückwärts
Z- Tempo-Regulierung
R- Drehen
U- Trackball
V- Trackball

Reaktionspunkte – Je höher diese Option eingestellt ist, desto mehr werden Sie den Joystick bewegen müssen, damit Sie eine Wirkung sehen. Wenn sich der Joystick in der Mitte befindet, bewegen Sie sich nicht.

Vorne – Bestimmt, wie schnell Sie sich vorwärts und rückwärts bewegen. Ist die Option nach links gestellt, müssen Sie den Joystick nicht so fest drücken. 
Seite – Bestimmt, wie schnell Sie sich seitlich nach links bzw. rechts bewegen können. Ist die Option nach links gestellt, müssen Sie den Joystick nicht so fest drücken. 
Pitch – Bestimmt das Tempo, mit dem Sie auf Ihre Gegner zielen.
Yaw – Bestimmt, wie schnell Sie sich nach links bzw. rechts drehen können. Ist die Option nach links gestellt, müssen Sie den Joystick nicht so fest drücken.
 
Empfindlichkeit – Die Regler multiplizieren sozusagen die Eingabewerte sowie das Potenzial, die Achse zu invertieren.
Vorne – Bestimmt die Empfindlichkeit bei Schritten nach vorne und hinten. Negativer Wert – keine Invertierung.
Seite – Bestimmt die Empfindlichkeit bei Schritten nach links und rechts. Positiver Wert – keine Invertierung.
Pitch – Bestimmt die Empfindlichkeit beim Zielen. Negativer Wert – keine Invertierung.
Yaw – Bestimmt die Empfindlichkeit beim Drehen nach links und rechts. Negativer Wert – keine Invertierung.

•	Exploit the Program or any of its parts commercially, including but not limited to use at a cyber cafe, computer gaming center or any other location-based site.

THE PROGRAM UTILITIES: The Program contains certain design, programming and processing utilities, tools, assets and other resources (“the Program Utilities”) for use with the Program that allow you to create customized new game levels and other related game materials for personal use in connection with the Program (“New Game Materials”). The use of the Program Utilities is subject to the following additional license restrictions:

 LIMITED WARRANTY: Activision warrants to the original consumer purchaser of the Program that the recording medium on which the Program is recorded will be free from defects in material and workmanship for 90 days from the date of purchase. If the recording medium is found defective within 90 days of original purchase, Activision agrees to replace, free of charge, any product discovered to be defective within such period upon its receipt of the Product, postage paid, with proof of the date of purchase, as long as the Program is still being manufactured by Activision.

This warranty is limited to the recording medium containing the Program as originally provided by Activision and is not applicable to normal wear and tear. This warranty shall not be applicable and shall be void if the defect has arisen through abuse, mistreatment, or neglect. Any implied warranties prescribed by statute are expressly limited to the 90-day period described above.
EXCEPT AS SET FORTH ABOVE, THIS WARRANTY IS IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND NO OTHER REPRESENTATIONS OR CLAIMS OF ANY KIND SHALL BE BINDING ON OR OBLIGATE ACTIVISION.
