Introduction 
------------ 
RollerCoaster is a rollercoaster simulator
which generates the track from a description of it stored in a text
file. So it should be easy to create new tracks (as long as you keep a
pencil and a paper near your computer to draw control points and tangents
:-). For the track file format see track_format.txt

Requirements 
------------ 
* Mac OS X 10.2 or later (It was not tested
  with earlier versions of Mac OS X).  
* a 3D hardware accelerator card with OpenGL.

Installation
------------ 
To install the screensaver, just drop the
"RollerCoaster.saver" in the /Library/Screen Savers folder. Once
installed, the name "RollerCoaster" should appear in the list of screen
effects in the System Preferences.

To remove the screensaver, just remove the file "RollerCoaster.saver"
from the /Library/Screen Savers folder.

Use
--- 
Just open the System Preferences and click on the Screen effects
tab. Then click in the list on the name "RollerCoaster 2000". You can
now configure the screen saver options with the "Configure" button.
