LOOKING GLASS - WINDOWS PREVIEW

1. Extract the whole ZIP (right-click > Extract All).
2. Open Launch.cmd in the extracted folder.
3. Setup defaults to existing game files. Choose an archive or folder if needed,
   then select Set up. Setup checks and unpacks the files, then plays.

Next time: just open Launch.cmd, or your optional desktop shortcut.
To change game files: open Setup.cmd.

No commands, Rust, Python, separate 7-Zip installation or administrator rights
are needed. Use a writable folder such as Documents\LookingGlass. Allow 3 GB
of free space; the optional game-data download is about 933 MB.

GAME FILES
Use files you are entitled to use. The engine ZIP includes no original game data.
Setup can fetch Alice1_2011_vanilla.7z from:
https://archive.org/details/alice_202106
Or use Choose archive / Choose folder for existing English 2011 vanilla files.
Downloading requires selecting Download from Internet Archive, then confirming
that you are entitled to download and use the files. The confirmation defaults
to No. Missing local files never cause setup to select or start a download.
That download is hosted by a third party, not this project. Its availability
and setup's checks do not establish permission to download or use it.

SAVES AND UPDATES
Saves, settings and imported files are in private/. Keep a backup. Install a new
preview in a separate folder and follow its save compatibility notes before
copying private/. Do not delete your old installation until the new one works.
Moving the folder requires recreating a desktop shortcut, if you use one.

This is an unsigned, experimental preview. See docs/KNOWN_ISSUES.md and
docs/INSTALL.md for limitations and troubleshooting. Check the release source
and checksum if Windows flags an unknown publisher. Do not disable security.

Esc: menu. F5/F9: quick save/load. Controls can be changed in Settings.
Use normal exits for campaign progress; Tab's chapter chooser starts a new visit.
