*** End Titles and Credits

A few general hints:====================

With some training it is possible to fly all 15 chapters in less thanone hour. You will get app. 60000 points by doing that in EASY level.

Become used to shoot at a very (*very*) high rate. The laser blasts can be fired as fast as you're able to push the trigger button. Don't wait for ashoot to reach it's target. Shooting will cost nothing in Rebel Assault (in the contrary to X-Wing, where every shoot counts). This is even true forchapter 4 and 15, where a torpedo is to be positioned.

After some chapters a 'Target Accuracy' is calculated. This is purely thenumber of hitten targets. The number of shoots you needed is not important.

Always disable HIMEM.SYS and EMM386.SYS as they may slow down your gamesignificantly.

There is a bug in the SB16 driver which prevents the use of 8-bit DMA. Try the SBPRO driver instead or use a 16-bit DMA channel (usually 5 or 6).

If the game hangs after a few minutes you have a problem with DOS4GW, the Dos-Extender for RA. There is a fix for this on various internet sites.

The program itself is rather small (only 214 KB !) and was written in 32-bitprotected-mode Watcom-C. The rest of the 400 MBytes consists of pictures,movies and sounds.

The soundtrack is completely sampled at a low rate (22000 ?) with 8-bitand only mono (therefore the sound quality leaves a lot to be desired...).

Good luck and may the force be with you!
