Hi All, just got back from a week in sunny (?) St.Ives, Cornwall. Checked out what's been going on and decided that as no one's talked about WOTS for some time...
I read all the messages from the board and don't get them via email. Your document didn't seem to be available that way, so I don't know what it's about..... ...
Hi! I'd just like to add my thoughts on WOTS: it's GREAT! I hadn't played LOM for about five, six years (and then it was using a Spectrum emulator on the Psion...
The hacking guide is incorrect. Or at least incorrect for the spectrum version. The objects are very poorly utilised in DDR, probably due to time constraints....
... From: "Mark Wright" <fig_wright@...> ... Never happened to me [ZX Spectrum version] and she has had the crown with her on more than one occasion as...
... From: "Chris Wild" <mailinglist@...> ... Have you any idea at all why LOM and DDR were programmed that way with a fixed time increase regardless of...
So with the objects If Luxor had the spear of torinarg would he get a bonus in battle? or just Torinarg? and do the main 5 items work with everybody? or just...

I mentioned this along time ago, but I swear that once I had a Fey character find his own bow, and he was looking at a barbarian (unrecruited) in the next...
... I agree. Little design thought I presume. ... That would be fine and I suspect probably the actual bug. I might see if I can get Mike to discuss LOM and...
You wrote ... Yes, he would get the bonus. Apart from using the object any other side effects of carrying can be got by any character who carries it. ... Using...
You wrote ... Shareth can't use the object, none of the NPC's can use an object. The affect is a by product of the way the code works. Interestingly enough, in...
Do you get an error when you run the patch program, or are you just not seeing any difference? Is the patch file and midnight.com in the same directory? Send...
I've emailed Mike about bugs in LOM and DDR... hopefully he may reply. Anyway, I was wondering if anyone can get a c64 disassembly or an Amstrad disassembly,...
... All I remember is that my C64 version of DDR was riddled with bugs that werent in the speccy version. The C64 version had a bug which made forest quicker...
Additional: dont know if it was a bug or a "feature", but the C64 version didnt have the lovely golden colours for dawn. I never used to play the C64 version ...
... have ... version ... There was a C64 version but I didn't like it. The screens took ages to draw, 4 seconds was the slowest we saw when standing just north...
Ok, I just downloaded the emulators and rom images. I firstly looked at the cpc version as being z80, it was likely to be the same... which it appears to be. A...
Hi Kevin, Well thanks for the feedback :))) Your comments have been filed with the other 1 person who made the time to suggest how I could improve things. Of...
... Thanks, Andy, for such kind words (if that was intented for me!). However, I must appologize: because of private reasons, mesced will be released as public...
Apologies Peter, There were indeed a few people who gave their initial comments when I first released it.. and thanks go to them all, including yourself. I was...
Agh, Andrew- I feel terrible about not giving feedback on WOTS- especially after asking so many questions about getting it to run on lower end machines. Can I...
Hello all, just achieved an Overwhelmimg Victory in Marshall Lords but I still have a few questions. 1) Is it possible to recruit both dwarves? I've managed to...

Wey-hey!! Certainly bringing all you boys grovelling out of the woodwork now. Nice to see!!! Andrew, I was only joking regards an editor!! I really do think...
Hello group, I realise that I am out of my depth among such scholars of the LOM trilogy, but I recently rediscovered LOM and DDR after an absence of 15 or so...
You need to go to the Palace of Varangriel, up in the far north or the map - it's almost exactly due NE from the City of Varangrim. ... From: "Chris"...
Hi Andrew, Yes, I know victory in 155 days is a long time but I wanted to give the engine a good test out. Everybody ended up recruited with the exception of...
