+<h1>Summary</h1>
+
+    <p><em>nr-TTD</em> (originally <q>No Registry - TTD</q>) is a batch file installer for TTD. It can download and install <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transport_Tycoon#Transport_Tycoon_Deluxe">TTD</a>, <a href="http://ttdpatch.net/">TTD Patch</a>, <a href="http://www.tt-forums.net/viewtopic.php?t=26352">TTD Patch Configurator</a> as well as a (poor) selection of newgrf files.</p>
+
+    <p>Please note that the project is not under any form of active development anymore.</p>
+
+<h1>Install</h1>
+
+<ol>
+    <li>Download <a href="http://zapotek.paivola.fi/~terom/nr-ttd/get/nr-ttd_latest.zip">the latest version</a></li>
+    <li>Extract/unzip the file into the folder you want to install TTD into</li>
+    <li>Double-click <tt>install.bat</tt></li>
+    <li>Answer the questions, make the choices</li>
+    <li>Done</li>
+</ol>
+
+<h1>Playing</h1>
+
+    <p>Usually, you can play TTD by simply running <tt>ttdpatchw.exe</tt> in the folder that you unzipped Nr-TTD to. For added convenience you can create a shortcut to the <tt>ttdpatchw.exe</tt> file:</p>
+
+    <ol>
+        <li>Right-click <tt>ttdpatchw.exe</tt></li>
+        <li>From the <q>Send To</q> menu, select <q>Send to Desktop (create shortcut)</q></li>
+        <li>Rename the resulting shortcut on your Desktop (right click -&gt; Rename) to, say, <q>TTD Patch</q></li>
+    </ol>
+
+    <p>Then simply run this shortcut to play TTD.</p>
+
+<h2>Registry errors</h2>
+
+    <p>In case you get registry errors when running <tt>ttdpatchw.exe</tt> (as may be the case when installing on top of previous installs of TTD), you should simply use <tt>run-forcenoreg.bat</tt> instead of <tt>ttdpatchw.exe</tt>. This instructs TTD Patch to ignore the windows registry, which should solve all registry problems.</p>
+
+<h1>Configuring</h1>
+
+    <p>Nr-TTD also installs the <a href="http://www.tt-forums.net/viewtopic.php?t=26352">TTD Patch Configurator</a>, which can be used to change your TTD Patch configuration. This enables you to tweak your gameplay in many different ways, and it is highly recommended that you look through the available settings. Refer to the <a href="http://wiki.ttdpatch.net/tiki-index.php?page=Manual">TTD Patch Manual</a> for further information on the induvidual switches.</p>
+
+    <p>Simply run <tt>ttdpc.exe</tt> from the TTD folder.</p>
+
+<h1>Requirements</h1>
+    <p>Nr-TTD uses fairly new batch file syntax, and hence probably only works on Windows XP SP2 or later. Space requirements are about 20MB or so. Total download size is some 9 MB without newgrfs, and then a couple hundred KB per newgrf.</p>
+
+    <p>TTD Patch should work on Windows Vista as well, provided you have a <a href="http://nightly.ttdpatch.net/latest/">recent enough version</a> (grab the file called TTDPatch-nightly-rXXXX-win32.zip), which you may need to download yourself.</p>
+
+<h1>Problems? Suggestions?</h1>
+
+    <p>Not working? Cryptic error messages? Turned your default language into swahili?</p>
+
+    <p>Unfortunately, I'm not sure anyone can provide very much support in terms of fixing bugs.</p>
+
+    <p>You can discuss Nr-TTD using the appropriate <a href="http://www.tt-forums.net/viewtopic.php?t=26742">TT-Forums topic</a>.</p>
