LAND OF THE FORGOTTEN v0.83   [16bit/DOS  Beta Test]
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
                     
You can very easily upgrade a v0.82 game to v0.83 without resetting the game.
All you need to do is copy certain new files into LOTF's directory, 
overwriting the older versions of the files.  The files that you should copy 
include everything in LOTF083U.ZIP; here is a list for your convenience:

LOTF.EXE
CONFIG.EXE
RELNOTES.HLP
MISC.HLP
RMDESC1.HLP
NORMAL.HLP
ENCHANT.DAT
COMMAND.DAT
SCRIPT1.HBS
UPGRADE.TXT


In addition, the game no longer uses the files TEMPSCR.HLP and IMP.HLP; you
may delete these files from LOTF's directory if you wish.
