CorsixTH for MorphOS
====================
Build your own hospital and cure the patients of Theme Hospital, the Bullfrog
classic of 1997: bloaty head, slack tongue, invisibility and many more strange
diseases. Hire doctors, nurses, handymen and receptionists, research new
treatments, handle the emergencies and keep the Ministry of Health happy.
CorsixTH is a modern open source engine: higher resolutions, bigger maps, a
map editor, campaigns and many fixes.
GAME DATA
---------
The original game data is NOT included: you need a copy of Theme Hospital.
The free demo works too, with its single level:
https://th.corsix.org/Demo.zip
Unpack it in the CorsixTH drawer: it creates the HOSP drawer.
HOW TO RUN IT
-------------
Put the Theme Hospital data in a drawer named HOSP next to the game, then
double-click the CorsixTH icon.
If the data is somewhere else, the game asks for its drawer on the first start:
open the volumes in the list, click the drawer holding DATA, LEVELS, QDATA and
SOUND, then click OK. The choice is written in config.txt.
The game opens in an 800x600 window; Alt+Enter switches between window and
fullscreen.
The game starts in English. To change the language, edit the line
language = [[English]] in config.txt, for example language = [[french]].
Saved games are in the Saves drawer, and a monthly autosave in Saves/Autosaves.
Errors are written in LOG.TXT.
The intro and the in-game movies are played from the game data. Click to skip
them. The demo has no intro and a single short movie.
