  [WHAT IS UPGRADE VERSION FOR?]

    This  is  the  improved  version of Tankard#4. The previous one has an
    intro  movie  coded  in  320x200x24bpp, now its mode is 320x200x15bpp.
    I  hope  that  this  will cause that magazine will work with every 1mb
    SVGA graphic card.

    But  we  want  you  to  remember,  that  running  TANK#4.EXE  with any
    parameter  in  command line turns off the movie and makes you enjoying
    the magazine.

    If   you   are  happy  Tseng  graphic  card  owner  (especially  Tseng
    ET6000)   you  don't  have  to  run  univbe  -  magazine  should  work
    correctly.  But  if  you  have  other  card  you  may be forced to use
    univbe  anyhow.  In  that situation you can run univbe 4.3 included to
    this  magazine,  but  you  wouldn't  be able to watch the intro-movie,
    because  intro  +  univbe 4.3 = hanging up your machine... I think the
    reason   for   it  is  that  this  version  of  univbe  supports  only
    256-colour  SVGA  modes  and  one  640x400x24bpp,  but it doesn't have
    any support for 320x200 highcolor...

    So  if  you  want  to  see  the  movie,  use univbe 6.52 or better (or
    worse, but this should be later than univbe 4.3!).
