Re: The castle in GI

Well that is intesting to know! It did seem odd that the castle was just there, it almost seemed totally out of place from the game. Oh well. Deleted stuff? Now why on earth would they do that, make the game longer, oh darn! ???

Re: New Zork Remake in Development

Site has been down for sometime and I was never able to receive any reply to my emails and its been a year now. Anyone know what happened? My guess is Activision got involved and shut them down... :'(

Re: HOW-TO: Installing & Playing Zork Games

My how-to page has been majorly updated today! Much has been added and many things fixed! Sorry for all that time during which the how-to's were seriously lacking, I spent a lot of time on them and thought when i was done the first time, that they were perfect.... WRONG. So... as I was updating it f...

Re: Nemesis/XP: On start screen goes dark, then nothing

Good job! Thats correct! As promised I updated my how-to's. In fact I majorly updated almost everything on the page all because someone wanted to get the CD version to run and I had assumed that my how-to would be sufficient to get it working. Which it was not. In either case, my how-to page is upda...

Re: Nemesis/XP: On start screen goes dark, then nothing

Okay, the nemesis.zix file is just a renamed medium.zix or small.zix file found on the first disc under \NEMESIS\ZNEMSCR based on the small or medium install you do. You can copy and rename one of them to nemesis.zix and place it in the folder with the nemesis.exe and the game will run. I am noticin...

Re: Nemesis/XP: On start screen goes dark, then nothing

Ok I understand what you mean now. I cant say for certain if its created during the install or not, it should be the same file however. I will have to get my CDs out and check them for you.

Re: Nemesis/XP: On start screen goes dark, then nothing

I am bit confused... The 3 .zix files have several hundred lines, but the only parts you change are what directory contains the data. So whether you run from the hdd or the dvd or the cd you will need to modify the files so that when you run the game it can find the folders. Cut and paste the entire...

Re: Nemesis/XP: On start screen goes dark, then nothing

If you have followed the guides and copied the necessary files to your hdd and used one of the modified NEMESIS.ZIX files then I am at a loss of what to recommend. Please post back here if you did already try the modified ZIX files, one for use if you will be running the game from the DVD and the ot...

Re: Best Zork Format For Future Games?

I am always a fan of graphics for Zork. Txt only games are boring to me, no music, no artwork... I enjoy reading books and imagining the world and chars. etc. but that is immensly easier than having to imagine items scattered about, their locations, puzzles to solve, where to go, what to do and how ...

Re: The New Message Board

Im not so sure, when I was reading up on letterboxing for the first time, I noticed MOST of the listings gave SPECIFIC directions and locations for the boxes, which to me is stupid. The whole point would be to treasure hunt it. i also dont like how the thing revolves around hiding stamps... last tim...
