Status : Online | Alkis21, if you don' t mind: Is "get a rope" the secret message in the computer screen? At least I thought that when playing your game and wandered a lot trying to find one in the different scenarios. If not, my mistake.... By and congratulations again for all your good work.

I will at some point. However, I don't know whether the AGS version I'm using is still supported. I tried the most recent one but due to the major changes some data gets lost so I stuck with the old one. The weird thing is, the DOS version works on some XP machines and refuses to work on other. For example, on my new computer it runs ok - although the sound is horrible. Good thing I have a dual boot.

Yes, that's the one.

Status : Online | Alkis, you should pop into the busy AGS Technical Forum from this page:
http://www.agsforums.com/yabb/
I think Chris would be very interested to hear any problems you're having with crashes and bugs (though I think the solution probably will be to use the latest version). There are also a number of experienced AGSers who might be able to help with this problem.
And feel free to post in all the other forums, too - you could get people to play your demo in the Productions forum, or critique your artwork/story/blah in the Critics Lounge, or just join us in general community chat. In fact, this is the first time I've ever heard of anybody making a game in AGS who doesn't post in the AGS forums! So come and join us, if you want. Or not. No pressure.

Status : Offline | I'm not being snobbish or anything, it's just that this forum is full of people who have started a game they will never finish. In fact, the number of people who start creating a game is by far bigger than those who actually finish it. So I didn't want to visit it until my game was ready. But you're right, there are a couple of technical problems they might be able to help me with.. so I will pay it a visit. Thanks.

Status : Offline | Pretty well, working on Chapter 4 at the moment. I paid a visit at the AGS forum like I said I would, but it was kind of disappointing. They couldn't help me with my questions (although they were polite enough to try), and almost nobody showed interest in my game. I was hoping they would at least tried the demo and gave me a few tips.
