        b) S.T.A.R.S. contacted
        c) S.T.A.R.S. informed that hiker was part of tourist group that

        a) Investigate Raccoon Forest area
        b) Locate Bravo Team helicopter
        c) Locate and rescue Bravo Team members
        d) Bring situation under control


                                STARTING A MISSION
To bypass the opening sequence, press any button on the Player 1 
controller.  You will be presented with the Resident Evil title screen.
There are 2 options: New Game or Load Game.  Use the Directional Button
to highlight an option, then press Start or X Button to select it.

NEW GAME
Select this option when you want to start a new mission, beginning with
the intro.

LOAD GAME
Select Load Game if you have a previous game saved on a Memory Card.  
See following section for more information.

You take command of either Chris Redfield or Jill Valentine, two top 
members of S.T.A.R.S. Alpha Team.

SAVING
To save a game you must place an ink ribbon into a typewriter.  Ink 
ribbons can be found in various places throughout the game.  Once you
find a ribbon, stand in front of the typewriter and press the Action 
button (X Button).  You will be asked if you want to save your progress.
Choose Yes or No.

Note: You'll need to find an ink ribbon each time you want to save, so
use your ink ribbons wisely.


                                SAVING/LOADING
If you attempt to save, and the message "Too Many Files" appears, you 
will be unable to save the current data on that memory card.  You must
use a different memory card with enough free memory.

Up to 5 different files can be save, and 1 file consumes 1 block of 
memory on a memory card.  To ensure your memory card has enough memory
available to save, you must check it by following these steps:
        1) Turn on the Sony PlayStation game console without inserting
a disc.
        2) Insert a memory card.
        3) Select "Memory Card" with the Directional buttons and press
the Circle Button.

If all 15 memory blocks are used, you must either delete a block or 
insert a different memory card with enough free memory.  To delete a
file, follow these steps:
        1) Select Delete from the Memory Card menu.
        2) Select the card that has the data you want to delete.
        3) Select the icon of the game data you want to delete.
        4) When the message "Are you sure?" appears, select "Yes".

To cancel deleting, select "No"

LOADING
If you have previously saved a game, make sure the Memory Card with the
file(s) is inserted into the Player 1 Memory Card slot.  Then highlight
Load Game from the title screen and press the X Button.  Your file(s)
will appear.  Use the Directional Button to highlight the file you want
to re-start, then press the X Button.  Select "Do Not Load" if you want
to return to the title screen without loading a file.


                                STATUS SCREEN
When you press the Start button during game play the Status Screen
appears.  This screen shows your character's condition and the items 
you are carrying.  Use the Directional Button to highlight an item or
function, then press the X Button to activate the options.

ITEMS
After highlighting the item you want to use, press the X Button.  You 
then have 3 options in the command window: Use/Equip, Check or Combine.

Use/Equip
To use the item, highlight Use and press the X Button.  For weapons, 
Equip will appear instead of Use.  If you select Equip, you'll be 
equipped with that weapon.  You cannot use a weapon until you have 
equipped it.  You can only use 1 weapon at a time.

Check
This option allows you to examine an item or weapon you have acquired.
By using the Directional Button after selecting the item or weapon, you
can rotate it and examine it in 3-D.  If you want to increase or 
decrease the magnification of the time, press the L1 or L2 button,
respectively.

Combine
Some items have a different effect when you combine them with other 
items, particularly weapons.  When you want to reload a clip of ammo 
for a gun, select the clip then select Combn from the command window.
Use the Directional Button to move the cursor onto the gun you want to
put the clip in.  Try combining other items to discover new effects.


Condition
On the Status Screen next to your character's mug shot is an 
electrocardiograph (ECG).  This ECG shows the current condition of 
your character, and will read "Fine" or whatever the status of your 
character is.  To return your character to better health, you must 
find medicine.

MAP/FILE/RADIO
There are 3 other functions you can perform from the Status Screen:

Map
Select this option to view the rooms and areas you have already visited.
This feature helps you keep track of where you need to go.

File
As you explore, you will discover notes, messages, or other information
that will automatically be filed in your character's notebook.  Select
this to view the contents of messages filed.  Hints may develop from
these notes.

Radio
If this option is available, you have a radio at your command, but
cannot use it unless you hear it beeping.  If you hear it beeping,
quickly open the Status Screen and select Radio to receive the 
transmission.  If you're too late, you could miss an important 
message!


ITEM BOX
You will notice that your character can only carry a certain number at
a time (Chris carries 6 items, while Jill carries 8).  You cannot lose
an item once you find it, but you can use it up (like ammo, for 
example).  In order to carry only the items you need at a certain 
time, you can store other items in an Item Box.

These are located in strategic places, and you must use them wisely
because they are limited in space.  Stand in front of the Item Box 
and press the X Button.  The Item Select Screen will then appear.

You can exchange, give or take out items from the box.  To place an 
item in the box, use the Directional Button to highlight the item, 
then press the X Button.  Now select a slot that reads "Nothing" and 
press the X Button.  The item has now bee placed into the box.  If 
there are no slots that read "Nothing," the Item Box is full.

To exchange an item, place the cursor over the item you want to 
exchange and press the X Button.  Now highlight the item in the box
you want to exchange and press the X Button.  You have now exchanged
items.

To take an item out of the box, you must have an empty slot available 
to carry the item.  Select the empty slot first then press the X Button
to move the cursor to the item box.  Highlight the item to take out of
the box and press the X Button.


OPTION MODE
This mode can be activated by pressing the Start Button and the Select
Button simultaneously (except during a cinema or while the Status 
Screen appears).  You can adjust the configuration of your buttons 
(CONFIG) or adjust the Sound mode (stereo or mono).

When adjusting your configuration, there are 3 set configurations: A,
B, or C.  You may also edit your configuration.  To edit, highlight 
the button you want to change then press the X Button.  The list of 
actions will appear.  Move the cursor to the action, then press the 
X Button.  When you have finished adjusting your options, select Exit.

Note: Dash refers to "Run" and Get Ready refers to "Draw Weapon."


                                WEAPONS
Your standard equipment includes a 9mm semi-automatic hand gun and a 
combat knife.  There are many other weapons to acquire through your 
search.  Some weapons are more difficult to handle, so try them before
taking them into combat (but don't waste too many rounds).

Combat Knife
A good weapon for a close fight, but not nearly as powerful or
protective as a firearm.

9mm Hand Gun
Popular, common hand gun used by many public organizations and armed 
forces for its high level of reliability.  Your gun can hold a clip 
of 15 bullets maximum.  When the clip runs out, and you have another,
your character will automatically reload.

Shotgun
An excellent hunting gun.  It sprays the ammo and is powerful enough 
to take down fast-moving enemies.  It is extremely handy when used at
close range.  One of the most reliable weapons you can find.


                                S.T.A.R.S. BIOS
ALPHA TEAM

Barry Burton
Age: 38
Height: 6 ft
Weight: 197 lbs
Blood Type: A
        Chris Redfield's old friend and partner.  Former SWAT team 
member, Barry maintains and supplies weapons for all S.T.A.R.S. 
members.  He had over 16 years of experience, and has lead many 
projects to success.  Barry is a trusted ally, but has had some 
trouble with his wife and 2 daughters recently.  He may look or sound
depressed at times.

Joseph Frost
Age: 27
Height: 5 ft 10 in
Weight: 159 lbs
Blood Type: B
        Previous member of S.T.A.R.S. Bravo Team, and already stationed
in Raccoon City, Joseph was recently promoted to serve as vehicle 
specialist for Alpha Team.  Many members of Bravo Team are jealous of
his promotion, but he was moved up by Wesker himself, Joseph is young,
enthusiastic and very curious.

Chris Redfield
Age: 25
Height: 5 ft 11 in
Weight: 177 lbs
Blood Type: O
        After being kicked out of the Air Force, Chris became a 
drifter until he met Barry Burton.  Barry recruited him for the 
newly-formed S.T.A.R.S.  Now Chris has been reassigned to a smaller
unit at Raccoon City headquarters to prove himself quickly.  Chris 
is a tough guy who possesses both a strong mentality and great vitality.

Jill Valentine
Age: 23
Height: 5 ft 5 in
Weight: 111 lbs
Blood Type: B
        An intelligent soldier that has saved many S.T.A.R.S. members
from danger in the past, Jill has been reassigned to Raccoon City just
like Chris.  She is excellent with special mechanical devices such as
lockpicks.  Jill has strong moral convictions and fights for what she
believes in.  While she has a great capacity for holding items, her 
small vitality puts her at a disadvantage.

Brad Vickers
Age: 35
Height: 5 ft 9 in
Weight: 134 lbs
Blood Type: O
        Brad is a computer expert and excels in information gathering.
Unfortunately, his fear of dying draws much heat from his fellow 
soldiers.  His lack of enthusiasm for rushing into danger has earned
him the nickname "Chickenheart."  While Chris is a qualified pilot, 
Brad has become the helicopter pilot for Alpha Team.

Albert Wesker
Age: 38
Height: 6 ft
Weight: 186 lbs
Blood Type: O
        Wesker has risen quickly inside the S.T.A.R.S. organization 
and currently leads the Alpha Team.  Viewed by many as a "cool guy,"
from his snappy haircut to his perpetual shades, Wesker was recruited
by a headhunter for his sharp insight and eventually founded the 
S.T.A.R.S. unit in Raccoon City.


BRAVO TEAM

Richard Aiken
Age:23
Height: 5 ft 8 in
Weight: 138 lbs
Blood Type: AB
        A very important member of S.T.A.R.S. serving as Bravo's
communications expert.  The only link back to headquarters for teams
out in the field, Richard actually has to pull double duty as 
radioman for both units since Alpha Team really has no trained 
operator, except for Jill (who has a knack for technology).  A very 
positive person, Richard greets new members warmly.

Rebecca Chambers
Age: 18
Height: 5 ft 3 in
Weight: 93 lbs
Blood Type: AB
        The youngest member of the group, Rebecca has been recruited 
for her knowledge of field medicine and First Aid.  She is nervous 
around other members, both because of her age and due to her lack of
experience.  Rebecca is eager to please and will take on any task 
assigned to her without hesitation.

Enrico Marini
Age: 41
Height: 6 ft 3 in
Weight: 183 lbs
Blood Type: O
        Bravo Team's leader, and Wesker's second in command for the
S.T.A.R.S. unit.  Enrico feels threatened by the arrival of the 
Alpha Team, thinking that Chris or Barry may end up replacing him as
#2 to Wesker.  Nonetheless, Enrico is a dedicated S.T.A.R.S. 
operative and is always proud to lead the unit when Wesker lets him.

Forest Speyer
Age: 29
Height: 6 ft
Weight: 157 lbs
Blood Type: A
        Forest is a great sniper in addition to his duties as Bravo's
vehicle specialist.  He is a consummate professional, and his work 
earns him great respect from the other members.  He instantly clicks
with Chris, and it seems they'll end up good teammates.

Kenneth J. Sullivan
Age: 45
Height: 6 ft 2 in
Weight: 213 lbs
Blood Type: O
        A quiet but very talented field scouting officer.  Also is an
expert in chemistry.  He wonders why his chemical experience would be
necessary in Raccoon City but quickly discounts his hesitancy since 
Wesker himself sought him to enlist in S.T.A.R.S.


                                TIPS FOR SURVIVAL
1) IMPORTANT. The supply of ink ribbons is very limited.  Use them 
sparingly.

2) Some of the enemies can be bypassed if you're quick, so try 
escaping from them whenever you can.  Pick your battles carefully in
order to save ammo for the more powerful enemies.

3) Weapon effectiveness varies with range and target.  Your standard
equipment is the Berretta but the shotgun is more effective for fast
moving enemies like birds.  The bazooka can be used against the 
bigger enemies.  (Jill can't handle some weapons as well as Chris so
try them before it become critical).

4) Listen for your enemies.  Sometimes you can hear them before they
approach you.
