The Pole Game: Advanced Options
Geeks can use the following "switches" (or combinations of them) to change the behavior
of The Pole Game. (If you have no idea what this is about, just ignore
this section completely
and you won't miss out on anything.)
To use a switch, Click the Windows Start button, select "Run..." from
the menu, and enter the following including the quotation marks (assuming you
installed the game to the default directory):
"C:\Program Files\Legend of the Greasepole\Polegame.exe" /wh
Replace wh with the switches you'd like to use.
| polegame /w |
Runs the game in a window. |
| polegame /h |
Force the game to run in high (16-bit) colour mode. |
| polegame /l |
Force the game to run in low (8-bit) colour mode. |
| polegame /a |
Force the game to load all sound effects at once when the game is
activated (Takes a long time but makes gameplay smoother. Do not use if your
computer has 32MB of memory or less.) |
| polegame /8 |
Force the game to mix sounds in 8-bits. (Default is 16-bit) |
| polegame /m |
Force the game to mix sounds in mono format. (Default is stereo) |
| polegame /s |
Force the game to deactivate sound effects entirely. (Will override
above options if used.) |
| polegame /d |
Active debug output mode. |
Super Advanced Option
When the game is running and you're in the middle of selecting your
discipline bars, type C-H-P.
The Ritual Bar will appear. Add the Ritual Bar to your jacket's sleeve.
Play the game and look for some new surprises.
