the character will run there.
By double-clicking on the doors and travel tools (Nina s motorcycle) you can immed
iately jump to another room.

2.2 Inventory
-------------
The Inventory takes up the most room in the bottom icon bar. As soon as objects
are in the inventory, the relevant objects will be displayed here. If the Invent
ory contains so many objects than they cannot be displayed at the same time, sim
ply scroll through the Inventory using the gold arrow to view all the objects.
The control buttons for the game are located to the right of the Inventory:
- Computer: Opens the game menu. You can save or load games, call up the options
menu (and change the game options) or exit the game here.
- Diary: The Diary tells you which level of the game you are in at the moment an
d summarizes all the important events. This not only makes it easy to reenter th
e game, sometimes you will also find important clues here, so you should regular
ly read the new entries.
- Magnifying glass: The Game Help displays all the possible objects you can exam
ine and people with whom you can interact. They will be indicated using a magnif
ying glass symbol. Exits are indicated using arrows.
The Game Help can also be activated by pressing the space bar if you haven t deact
ivated the Game Help in the main menu.

3. Troubleshooting
------------------
If you experience any problems with the graphics, you should first make sure tha
t you are using the latest driver for your graphics card. If you encounter other
technical problems while playing Secret Files: Tunguska, you should try to chan
ge the graphic settings using the configuration program contained in the Autosta
rt menu.

Quality
-------
High color resolution: Optimal color quality for the best quality.
Lower color resolution: Suitable for older computer systems.
Anti-aliasing: You can choose the quality of the anti-aliasing here if your grap
hic card can handle anti-aliasing.

Presentation
------------
Full screen: Indicates whether the game should run in full screen mode or window
mode. If you are running in window mode, you should make sure you select the sa
me color depth as the color depth of your desktop in order to ensure optimal per
formance.
V-Sync: Synchronizes the frame output to your monitor s current refresh rate. This
setting could negatively affect how the game looks. If your mouse cursor respon
ds sluggishly or if a character moves somewhat jerkily, you should deactivate V-
Sync. If the picture flickers you may be able to correct this problem, which is
commonly seen in systems that have the NForce2 chip set, by activating V-Sync.
Refresh rate: You can manually adjust the refresh rate of your monitor here. Thi
s setting only applies to full screen mode. If you are not sure if your monitor
supports the indicated settings, you should stick with the default setting. A hi
gher refresh rate increases the number of displays per second, which reduces the
flickering on your monitor. Incidentally, this applies to CRT monitors and not
most TFT monitors, which have a predefined refresh rate.
Miscellaneous
-------------
Software cursor: The software cursor provides the highest possible compatibility
to all systems. If the software cursor is deactivated, the hardware cursor of D
irectX® or your graphics card manufacturer will be used. This can cause problems
in some systems especially in combination with anti-aliasing. The software curs
or responds visibly slower than the hardware cursor on some systems.
Max. frames per second: Indicates the maximum number of frames per second that s
hould be displayed. This may affect the run time of the battery in laptops.

General
-------
Standard button: Returns all the values back to the default settings, which offe
rs the highest possible compatibility on all systems.
