It's pretty simple with DOS, but I'm not too sure about Macs and Codewarrior. You need to have Gravitation 1.3 and the demo recorder. If you didn't already get them, then get grav13.zip and demorec.zip from James Shaughnessys' site: http://www.netyaroze-europe.com/~shaughnj You should read the included readmes and all the small print. GCC users should unzip both these files to the same directory, then run the demorec DOS batch file to load up grav 1.3 and the demo recorder. Select 'record' to record your times, then quit the game with the 'quit' option when you're finished and use either 'savepal' or 'saventsc' to save your demo. This will save the times for all the 9 maps to a file called mypal.dat or myntsc.dat, depending whether you're running PAL or NTSC. You can make as many attempts as you like to record your times in one session, but you will need to quit to save the demo. Then zip up your mypal.dat or myntsc.dat and send it in. You can replace the default demopal.dat or demontsc.dat with your mypal.dat or myntsc.dat if you want to load up your existing times as the default and keep adding to them. If you're not running DOS, then the siocons batch files you need to run are 'autodr' to download the demorecorder, and either 'savepal' or 'saventsc' to save the demo. The included readme explains it better though. It's not really as complicated as I'm making it sound. You only need to run one file to play the game, and one file to record the game. I expect to see some of your times on the board when I check back next week. =) Rob Ryan.
