*** IMPORTANT - OPERATION FLASHPOINT INTERIM UPGRADE (V1.10) README *** 
1st August 2001 
 
This readme outlines the functionality improvements, bug fixes and new features incorporated into the first official upgrade release. The file is available for download from www.codemasters.com/flashpoint/upgrades (and associated mirror sites). Unzip it and run the extracted .exe from any directory - it will automatically update all the necessary files. 
 
Add-Ons (new vehicles, weapons, single and multi-player missions) will be available separately soon. 
 
PLEASE NOTE - YOU WILL NEED YOUR ORIGINAL OPERATION FLASHPOINT DISC IN THE CD DRIVE WHEN YOU RUN THE UPGRADE .EXE - THE FILE IS COPY-PROTECTED AND WILL NOT WORK WITHOUT IT. 
 
Requirements: 
1) Installed release version of Operation Flashpoint (WITH ORIGINAL DISC IN CD DRIVE) 
2) We recommend that all applications (including Operation Flashpoint) be closed down before running the upgrade .exe.
