set the Hardware Acceleration slider to one notch above none
(basic accelerator functions).

CUSTOMIZING VOICES

You can customize the voice files in Malkari if you wish to do so
by following these steps.  See note #2 at the bottom before 
proceeding:

1) Using Windows Explorer, go to the directory where you've 
installed Malkari (C:\I-Magic\Malkari by default)

2) Open the Sounds directory.

3) Open the voices directory.

4) Open the directory which corresponds to the guild whose voice 
files you would like to change.
G1 = The Crimson Dawn
G2 = The Emerald Combine
G3 = The Blue Talon Corps
G4 = Golden Order of Reason
G5 = The Diamond Cooperative

5) This directory will consist of a number of .wav files with a 
name of x##.wav where x is a letter from 'a' to 'e' and ## is a 
number from 1 to 38.

6) Substitute your custom 16 bit .wav file for the file you wish 
to replace by giving it the same name and overwriting the file 
(you may want to copy this file someplace else in case there are
problems).

The numbers in the filename correspond to the following actions
in the game
1 - Construction Initiated
