The sound issue was fixed at some point, I'm not sure if it was beta 21 or 22.

Hi Tom.

Beta 18 is the last beta I have stored a copy of.

if I remember rightly hadn't you changed to using some other sound library
in the later betas which made things much less reliable as regarded sound
sources etc?

I do remember there was a general dip in stability due to some massive code
reshuffle just after beta 18, ---- was that the point you changed from a
windows specific solution to Sdm? I am not sure, though the fact that beta
18 was the one I kept rather than the later ones definitely suggests that it
was probably the last stable version sinse usually I'm very careful about
updating my directories of setup files when new versions of games come out.

Beware the Grue!

Dark.

Hi John,

Well, since many people have requested that I put the betas back up if
I am going to do it I might as well do it for everyone rather than one
person. that means a production release and not just zip up the
contents of the demo and slap it on the USA Games site. that's also
why I was curious to know why beta 18 verses a newer release.

I have not played beta 18 any time recently, and only have beta 22
installed on a couple of machines. So that is why I was wondering what
if anything was so different about beta 18 that made it preferable to
the newer releases.

obstacles without ever actually letting go of the keys. Plus, the full
restores from the shield/armor were awesome, heh.
There's absolutely no need to do an installer; I'd be perfectly happy
with
whatever  you can throw together. I'm certainly not looking for
production
quality here, just some way I can get to play with an old distraction
that's

vanished into the abyss of hard drive errors.

Thanks,
