Hi, I didn't say hello properly last time - like many of you no doubt I grew up with the spectrum and bought LOM and DDR and have been playing them ever since,...
Just discovered this...it's probably a bug, but interesting & useful nonetheless! When a character is in the tunnels, it seems that they clear the location...
This is interesting and I hadn't given much thought... but now you mention it. Creatures in DDR are handled by having a flag to state if there is anything ...
... useful ... for ... no ... surface ... out ... I tested out whether it works the other way round or not & indeed it does, so if you want to get safe fast...
Hi, Like most of you, I bought LOM for the Spectrum the day it was released, followed by DDR again, on release. These games kept me occupied for a long time...
... Hi Draygor, and welcome! I think that file is a DOS remake of DDR. I'm not sure, but it might not work under Windows XP... Chris is working on a DDR...
Extracting the Zip file into a directory and running the revenge.com file and DDR should run. There are no known problems with it working on any versions of...
Hi thanks for the advice, I now have DDR working, and the latest version of LOM (which has raised the level of enjoyment and atmosphere through the roof for...
Thanks Chris, I appreciate the fast response, but it is actually while playing the WOTS game. The midnight engine LOM worked perfectly. I have included the...
Hi Tim, I replied to your email that you sent to me direct, but that was before reading the last few posts here... Reply to me off-list and I will try and...
Gaz, Just to let you know that I recently picked up a Psion 3mx off eBay and that Psion LOM appears to be 100% compatible with it. Which would suggest that the...
Afaik, the Psion 3a/3c, and 3mx were essentially the same at the hardware level with the differences being mainly cosmetic. I can't remember now what they...
... The 3mx has a much faster processor compared to the 3c. Twice as fast I think. It also (presumably as a result of the new processor?) uses a different size...
Hello all, Just wanted to let you know that I updated jLOM to make it possible to run it in standalone mode: now you can just download the JAR and double-click...
Looks great, Davor, and so compact (no probs in Opera or stand-alone) - takes me back +20 years when I was religiously parked in front of a C64 for a tussle...
Nice one Davor. Working well here on OS X Panther 10.3.9, Java 1.4.2 Jean-Yves PS. Any chance of implementing pan left/pan right using the arrow keys?...
Thanks guys, I'm glad it's working for you. That code was sitting in my account for a long time in a sort-of working state, so it feels good that this final...
... keys? ... Now that I know where they are (and you are right, I should have guessed!), I'm perfectly happy with the [ and ] keys. Thanks. ... Oh dear -...
A wonderfully late reply from Marcus Tullius, how surprising... I am a great fan of the Amber series by Roger Zelazny, Francisco. I even got the Amber Diceless...
... Found this by a random google :) I'm Colin Piggot, the editor of Sam Revival, and it's to say that Legend of Eshan will be appearing on issue 15 of Sam...
... I've uploaded the file here: http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/midnight/files/Misc/off-centre-lord-blood.png It could of course be the same in the...
LOM has a specific position for every character ie: 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th etc.. I doubt you would have gone to the trouble to work it out! :) Chris -- Chris Wild...
Davor - those 'sweep' keys ([,]) are very useful now I know about them, and the "=" option is a stroke of genius. I'm really enjoying my fragmentary forages...
... Yeah, I used to like that on the original Speccy version. You'd sit there cringing and hoping to not see "....and of Mirrow..." as Morkin tried to slip up...
