ADDITIONAL INFORMATION FOR X—MEN CARTOON MAKER


1.  When viewing the Stan Lee movies, 8MB RAM is highly recommended for
    optimal performance.


2.  If the performance of the X—MEN CARTOON MAKER seems to become sluggish
    after running for some time, simply exit the program and restart it.
    This should restore performance.


3.  When drawing an outline that will be filled, such as the Trace borders,
    make the line solid or the fill color will go through the gap and fill
    the entire picture.  It is easier to see any gaps when using a thicker
    line for the outline.  Play with different thicknesses and the fills to
    see what works for you.


4.  The Paint Bucket fills (in the Background library) will only work against
    a blank background or one filled by a color from the color bar.


5.  If you purchase the Spider—Man Cartoon Maker after you have bought X—Men,
    you can still combine the two.  Simply install Spider—Man, and then
    reinstall X—Men.


6.  Once you have combined the X—Men and Spider—Man libraries, you may notice 
    that a few of the Spider—Man backgrounds are mixed in the with X—Men
    backgrounds.  This is to ensure that movies made with the Spider—Man
    Cartoon Maker will playback correctly.

How to Read Bass Tabs

Bass tablature (tabs) is an easy way to learn songs without needing to read traditional sheet music. Here’s a quick guide to understanding the symbols and techniques commonly found in tabs:

1. The Basics

Strings and Frets:
Each line in a tab represents a string on your bass:
- The top line is the highest-pitched string (G on a 4-string bass).
- The bottom line is the lowest-pitched string (E on a 4-string bass).
Numbers on the lines indicate which fret to press. For example:
```
G|-------------------|

D|-------------------|

A|---3---------------|

E|-------------------|

            
```
This means you play the 3rd fret on the A string.

2. Common Techniques

Hammer-On (h):
Play the first note by picking it, then press down on a higher fret with another finger without picking again.
```
G|-------------------|

D|-------5h7---------|

            
```
Pull-Off (p):
Pluck a note and then "pull off" your finger to let a lower fret ring.
```
G|-------------------|

D|-------7p5---------|

            
```
Slide (/ or \):
Move your finger up (/) or down (\) the fretboard while maintaining pressure.
```
G|-------------------|

D|-------5/7---------|

            
```

3. Advanced Techniques

Bend (b): Push the string up or down to raise the pitch. Example: G|-------7b9---------|
Vibrato (~): Shake the string slightly after playing a note to create a vibrating sound. Example: G|-------7~----------|
Muted Notes (x): Rest your finger lightly on the string without pressing a fret and pluck for a percussive "click" sound.

4. Rhythm and Timing

Tabs don’t always indicate timing, so listen to the song while reading the tab. Wider spaces between numbers mean longer pauses, while closer numbers indicate quicker notes.

5. Slap and Pop

Slap (s): Strike the string with the side of your thumb for a percussive sound.
Pop (p): Pull the string away from the fretboard and let it snap back.

Practice Makes Perfect

Tabs are a great tool to learn songs, but mastering the techniques takes practice. Listen carefully to the original track and play along to lock in the rhythm. Don’t rush — smooth, accurate playing is more important than speed. Happy jamming! 🎸
