|
|---|
| 20 | <p><font color="#FFFFFF">Abuse is a side-scrolling action game with a unique
|
|---|
| 21 | <a href="pages/single.html#The Basics">control</a>
|
|---|
| 22 | system. You move the player with</font>
|
|---|
| 23 | <br><font color="#FFFFFF">the arrow keys, while you aim his gun with the
|
|---|
| 24 | mouse. In the original shareware version, released</font>
|
|---|
| 25 | <br><font color="#FFFFFF">in 1995, there were four levels, and a highly
|
|---|
| 26 | flexible level editor. The registered version, available</font>
|
|---|
| 27 | <br><font color="#FFFFFF">for DOS, came with IPX support and lots of new
|
|---|
| 28 | items and fun stuff. Abuse was programmed by</font>
|
|---|

|
|---|
| 30 | <a href="http://www.crack.com">Crack
|
|---|
| 31 | Dot Com</a>. The retail version was published by Origin</font>
|
|---|
| 32 | <br><font color="#FFFFFF">and Electronic Arts, and can be found today in
|
|---|
| 33 | a number of action-game compilations.</font>
|

| 34 | <p><i><font color="#FFFFFF">What is fRaBs?</font></i>
|
|---|
| 35 | <p>fRaBs is just a silly acronym for 'Free Abuse'. <font color="#FFFFFF">It
|
|---|
| 36 | has the network support of the registered version,</font>
|
|---|
| 37 | <br><font color="#FFFFFF">but also comes equipped with many new single
|
|---|
| 38 | player and deathmatch levels, as well as additional</font>
|
|---|
| 39 | <br><font color="#FFFFFF">enemies and artwork, all coming from outside,
|
|---|
| 40 | free sources. A list of updates and modifications can</font>
|
|---|
| 41 | <br><font color="#FFFFFF">be found in the <a href="pages/updates.html">updates</a>
|
|---|
| 42 | section. As far as I know, there is no material in this archive that is
|
|---|
| 43 | not</font>
|
|---|
| 44 | <br><font color="#FFFFFF">public domain. I sure hope that the acronym is
|
|---|
| 45 | justified. :-)</font>

| 47 | <p><font color="#FFFFFF"><b><u><a href="frabs210.zip">fRaBs 2.1</a></u></b>
|
|---|
| 48 | is the current version of fRaBs, as of the time of this documentation.
|
|---|
| 49 | There's lots of new</font>
|
|---|
| 50 | <br><font color="#FFFFFF">levels and code, so make sure you replace any
|

| 51 | older versions. <b><a href="frabs210.zip">Download - 5.40MB</a></b></font>

| 52 | <p>If you have already downloaded version 2.0, there is a <a href="f200-210.zip">patch</a>
|
|---|
| 53 | available that will update your version
|
|---|
| 54 | <br>of fRaBs to version 2.1. Unzip the patch to the fRaBs root directory
|
|---|
| 55 | and it should overwrite all of
|
|---|
| 56 | <br>the necessary files. In the future these patches will be smaller, as
|

| 57 | I will keep better track of what I
|
|---|
| 58 | <br>do to the HTML documentation. <b><a href="f200-210.zip">Download -
