	Virtual Girl for OS/2 1.0 third beta (December 2001)

	Hi! this is third beta version of Virtual Girl for OS/2.
	this is an unofficial hackers analog of original Virtual Girl
	for Windows.

	it's in developing, that's why it is not full futured thing
	like an original version.

	Minimal system requirements: Pentium 200Mhz
	recommended: Pentium II 400Mhz or higher.

	In OS/2 it's very difficult to make the girl on desktop, and
	PMMERGE.DLL is too slow on moving windows, that's why
	VGirl/2 wants little much Mhz than original Windows Virtual Girl.
	In the future I'll try to reduce the Mhz requirements.
	On my PII-Celeron-433Mhz, the original Windows version eats 25%-30% of
	CPU when girl appears, in OS/2 girl eats 40%-45% of CPU,
	It's so sad.

	PS: Animation files (*.vg?) are not compatible with animation files of
	original Virtual Girl for Windows (*.bk?), because i don't want
	to get angry real authors of original Virtual Girl on me.
	(or maybe I'm too lazy). But i think in release version I'll make
	VGirl/2 support original animation files of VGirl for Windows, but
	I'm not sure. :)

	2authors of VG for Win - I will be very glad if you will contact with
	me and support developing of Virtual Girl for OS/2.

	usage:
	Run Virtual Girl for OS/2 by executing Vg2.exe
	point mouse cursor over girl, and click right mouse button
	to call popup menu.
	In menu choose the item:
		About  - see about information.
		Settings - settings.
		Characters - girls characters.
		Next  - skip current girl.
		Stop  - stop playing.
		Exit  - shutdown Virtual Girl for OS/2.

	tips:
	If you want to shutdown VGirl/2 when it's in rest,
	use task bar to kill, or select Show menu item in popupmenu
	of VGirl/2 in task bar and when VGirl/2 appears you can shutdown
	it by normal way.

	SDD users:
	SDD - sucks.

	Known bugs:
	It eats too much CPU, i still trying to optimize it.
	If you haven't fast CPU (more than 400Mhz) do not run
	Virtual Girl/2 with big applications.
	like Win Amp runned via Odin. :) 
	Netscape/2 4.61 and Virtual Girl/2 together.
	I don't know why Netscape loads CPU when VGirl/2 dancing. :)
	oh yeah, some girls is blinking often like cluver99.vg1
	(my favorite :) this is not a bug, it's just was an animation 
	file from old version of Virtual Girl for Windows, and 
	converter did convert this file little incorrectly, 
	because converter is still too ugly and I'm working on it. :)

	Words from author:
	This version have not one last visual effect. I'm not sure 
	will i have internet access till next week, that's 
	why I'm releasing third beta so soon and without one 
	visual effect. Last visual effect is still too ugly and freaky
	and don't have enough time for project developing and testing.

	What's new?
	A lot of fixes.
	And new background detection engine like in Windows version,
	but it's still not ideal, need time to tune it.

	PS: sorry for my English if I've made some mistakes.
