this level looks like its not kosher to me, i had to edit the two blocks on the
bottom right so I could get back up the ladder to get the last block thats right
most in the game area. did i miss something! has any one else had problems with
this level.

Just did it without problems... (if the level that's in the files section is the
unaltered version.) I did it by using the falling monks to get the three across
the top first, then got the one one the right last.  The space under the gold on
the right is a hollow tile, allowing you to blast your way out.

I was thinking the other day what the maximum number of points one could
accumalate on a playable, solvable level.  I came up with one with 1,780 points.
I could squeeze a few more pieces of gold on the board, but it would render it
unsolvable (or maybe even unplayable).  Has anyone come up with more than that?

(I know... I have too much time on my hands...)

Not bad... I was just using the built-in editor...

Has anyone been able to install LRO on Windows 7. I downloaded it from
daggert.net. When I run the setup program I receive a message that states:
"The version of this file is not compatible with the version of Windows you're
running. Check you computer's system information to see whether you need an x86
(32-bit) or x64 (64-bit) version of the program, and then contact the software
publisher."

I'm running it in compatibility mode. I've tried every mode going all the way
back to Windows 95. I'm practically foaming at the mouth to play the levels that
I created 15 years ago. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Ben

can you still play over a phone line if the computer has a modem built in with
no extra charge from phone company or having to sign up for dial-up service?

I just recently got Lode Runner Online working with music, which I like.

What I DON'T like is that I just discovered that for some reason, it seems
impossible to enter a new filename when saving a level group. In fact, you can't
enter a file name at all; you have to select an existing file.

I can think of one workaround: have an empty level group to copy, rename, and
save over every time I create a new level group. But it seems to me that there
must be a better solution. Does anyone know of a better way to fix this problem?

I just finished creating my Lode Runner fansite.

It has a blog, a forum, and downloads to Lode Runner: The Legend Returns and
Lode Runner Online. The forum also has a dedicated place for sharing levels.

I still don't have the full CD-ROM version of Lode Runner Online available. I've
searched everywhere and can't find it. If anyone has it, pretty please let me
know! :)

Suggestion:

The font is kinda hard to read on such a soft background, and I can barely read
it at all without highlighting everything.  Mayhaps a slightly larger, more
thicker font is in order?

It has been a while since I stopped by here so I was surprised when I saw a link
to the LR:MMR installer I wrote many years ago. I noticed that a DLL is required
to get the game to run on Vista and Win7. I dug up the installer source code and
updated the package to include that DLL. Please download and test out the
updated installer.

http://www.jcouncil.com/mmrsetup.exe

I am not going to keep the installer up on my server for long so if the link
doesn't work let me know.

Hi,

I've tried both LR Online downloads [zip file and the mmrsetup.exe], yet I keep
getting DLL is missing.  What if anything am I not doing correctly?

I've tried to use the DLL PLAY, but I'm unable to set it up to open in Lode
Runner Online.

Thank You.

Nuff Said...Dennis  @Moderator

Hi!

I am old school and always loved the ones for Apple 2 (Commodore 64 was good
too) including Championship one. I even made my own levels (sadly, don't have
them anymore) and got a certificate from Br0derbund's Championship version on my
Apple //c. I looked at the newer Lode Runner games (Windows, arcades, etc.), but
didn't like them much.

What about the rest of you? Thank you in advance. :)

You need a telephone service obviously.

*LOL*  i too first  played lode runner  on an apple //c.  man that was 
awesome!! not to knock modern games, but  lode runner, *nostalgic sigh*  there
is just something about it that  bloody well drags me back time after time.  i
have a hella big gba game collection but lemme tell you LR has  most of em
beat!!
   i play hyper lode runner game but the apple //c version was so much better.
   maybe sometime  i'll be able to afford a flash linker & convert the program to
that format. :D JOY would be had  by  me!! my  family  not so much..:D


   *shrug* once i get  moved to a house i'll unload  my  old apple //c and  see
if  i can find  my copy of Championship lode runner. no9t even  sure the
floppy's are still viable...geesh 20yrs or thereabouts in storage..

    take care y'all!
         Skittle

When I got my first Apple ][c clone, Lode Runner was the first game that I
bought for it.  It was great fun and my sister and I even made a few levels for
it (although your guess is as good as mine as to where those level disks are
now). 9_9

I later gave Lode Runner: the Legend Returns a try but, although it had more
features, I couldn't really get into it.  (I've never played Mad Monks' Revenge,
sadly).

And the only thing that kept me from enjoying Lode Runner 2 was its 'beat the
authors' time' requirement. (Who wants to be told 'Ha-ha, too slow!' 20-50 times
in a row?) 9_9

These days, despite its flaws, I still play the remake 'Apple Lode Runner' once
in a while.  That's not to say that a modern version won't have a place in
today's market but (in my opinion, at least) it should include an emulated copy
of the (Apple II) original - if anything, it will show today's players what
their hyper-realistic titles evolved from.

(Then again, that can be said for a lot of classic titles) ^_^U

And, just so you know, I gave the indie title 'Retro Runner' a few plays as well
- although it has some good ideas under its proverbial belt, its control system
is based on a single-button version of the original game.  I don't like being
critical of *anyone's* projects but I was left wondering as to how many other
(Apple II) players were able to adapt this system.

Perhaps, through my own shallowness, I am missing its true genius? ^_^U

http://www.virtualapple.org/loadrunnerdisk.html and
http://www.virtualapple.org/championshiploderunnerdisk.html if you want to play
online through an Apple 2 emulator. ;)

I was a big Lode Runner addict in sixth grade. I used to draw Lode Runner. :(
