Tribes EZ Uplink v1.0 Readme.txt
--------------------------------

Tribes EZ Uplink is a little program that I have been wanting to make for a long time now.
The reason I made this program is that I have buddies who play Tribes and we get together
and play all the time.  Usually one of us pings and finds a server and the others wait on
him to return and give us the ip#.  Then we had to edit the properties on a shortcut, type
a long command line, or find the ip# in the Tribes server list.  Well no more of that!  One
person still has to ping to find a server but the rest just wait for the ip#, type it into
Tribes EZ Uplink, hit Go, and they are off.  It's that simple.  So what are you waiting for,
This is freeware that I made to be distributed so pass it around.

Some of the features of Tribes EZ Uplink are: 

1.  Remembers the path to the Tribes folder and remembers it after you set the path of course. 

2.  Remembers the last entered IP address (You ever see an ip# anywhere and want to save it
            for later?  Just open Tribes EZ Uplink, type it in, and hit Exit and it will
            remember that ip# the next time.  One keeps one ip# at a time though.)

3.  Tribes EZ Uplink exits when you click go and run Tribes so you don't have to hit Exit
            when finished playing.

4.  Very easy to set up and use.

Installation notes:

You can put the tribeezup.exe anywhere you want. (I keep it on the Desktop myself) 

How to use:
The IP# must be entered in the correct format.  The correct format is as follows:

ip:port          for example: 255.255.255.255:28001   the 28001 can be anything between
                                                      28001 and 28008.

After the IP has been entered just click OK and Tribes will start up and connect to the
           server.

IMPORTANT: Tribes EZ Uplink can not tell if a valid server ip# has been entered or not, so
           make sure the ip# is entered correctly and using the right format.  If you get
           to the connecting screen in Tribes and the loading bar doesn't appear, then click
           BACK and Tribes will close and you can rerun Tribes EZ Uplink and fix the typo.



If you encounter any bugs/errors in the program then please report them to me. And it would 
be nice if you let me know what you think of Tribes EZ Uplink!
