ShadowFlare: Episode Two Information

ShadowFlare: Episode Two

ShadowFlare is a mission-based PC action/role-playing game that consists of 4 episodes. 

You start your journey in ShadowFlare as a hired mercenary working for gold, precious items, and fighting experience in a demon-ruled land. As you adventure through the vast ruins of what's left of the world, you'll deduce what happened and who's responsible for the devastation. Once you've reached a certain skill level in the game, you'll be able to choose a new profession for your character as a warrior, wizard/witch, or hunter.

ShadowFlare: Episode Two is available here as a downloadable file and on a CD-ROM. If you order Episode Two on a CD-ROM, it will include Episode One as well. 

You must have the ShadowFlare Episode One Version 2.001.000 installed before installing Episode Two. The version is displayed on the bottom right-hand corner of the initial screen after starting ShadowFlare.

When you download this file, do NOT directly download to "C:\Program Files\ShadowFlare", but download to a temporary folder such as "C:\SFTEMP2".

After the download has completed, you will extract AND setup the files, i.e. the installation will involve two steps.

The first step is to extract the downloaded self-extracting file (sf2.exe) to a temporary folder, and the second step is to actually setup the files to the program folder.

First, double-click the downloaded file (sf2.exe), and you will be asked for "Install Directory:". Do NOT specify "C:\Program Files\ShadowFlare" at this point. You may accept the current default folder, or specify a temporary folder such as "C:\SFTEMP2". Then the self-extracting file will create four temporary files: Data.sma, Setup.sma, SFSetup.exe and ReadMe.txt. Please read the ReadMe.txt file before you start the program. If you use Windows XP or Windows 2000, you must log on as an Administrator before you can setup ShadowFlare.

Second, run SFSetup.exe. The setup will detect where you have installed Episode One before, and will copy the files to the same folder that you have installed Episode One.

After the setup is complete, you can safely remove the temporary files (sf2.exe, Data.sma, Setup.sma, SFSetup.exe and ReadMe.txt) and folder you may have created to extract the setup files, i.e. "C:\SFTEMP2" in the above example.
