hmm. this game came from the now dead xlstudiossi. However its abandonware. Its even free to hack the game, although the source package says the game was pourly designed and was really not good. The xlstudios stuff was taken over by shane davidson. However it appears that bpcprograms shared some code with jayson the owner of xlstudios for giftanum, another game. And ofcause didn't want to share it. After that shane got in a bad mood if the archives and msn conversations I had with him are anything to go on, as I understand it. He then has never mentioned any xlstudios software again. A while later, I am not sure how many months that is, but anyway shaned.net had to upgrade and had a crash, one of the 2, I am no longer sure. Anyway the main wordpress blog is offline and well I havn't seen any xlstudios stuff. If you want the stuff then someone will have to give it to you. But its dead, as far as I can tell. There has been no attempt to rehost the material. At 04:59 p.m. 21/09/2006, you wrote:
