My name is Cee.

I speak english only.

I am amazed at the dedication to this antique game.

Enjoying playing it (cant connect to hat at the minute for (whatever) reason)

Hope to see a few english players, if not; im happy with the russians.

You guys are mainly a friendly bunch (with the exception of pkers)

CU ON!

Hi! Hat is working atm. There is playing some english players.. so, i think, you will meet them. Welcome!

Thank you for your kind words.

I was wondering about the map editor.

It does not run on my system, the error i get is "Map Editor Terminated: Directdraw Cant Start. Make sure you have directdraw installed and your system in hi-color mode"

It seems that the map editor is nessecary for doing well in the game. Due to quests and whatnot...

And
Did you make sure your system is in Hi-color mode (16 bit)?

I cannot, 64 bit.

can run 32 bit programs but not 16 bit (as far as im aware)

had already checked in the usual place (used to have an older system)

You should set 16 bit in your _screen_ properties.

BTW, may I ask a silly question, what colour is your hair?

Blond, no jokes please.

I get enough of that

I found it, however it was more difficult to find than in XP, you had to right click desktop then go to properties (32 bit then 16 bit)

In this version i had to go to right click desktop go to screen resolution click advanced settings go to monitor then go to 32 bit color to 16 bit

Computers are not my key skill.

In fact, i dont think anything is. Jack of all trades sort of thing.

Another problem, my friend tries to run the game (new laptop) and it does not function, the screen goes black, and if it does load then the cursor may not be moved.

Thanks for your time, Cee ))
