well I never heard of agt for windows.
there was agility I think but it means you need to convert the games and I
really havn't tried it.
at any rate I think it takes away the feel having to recompile the stuff
so I can play it on another editer and I never had luck with it anyway.
I wish there was agt for windows.

well I have cosmoserve starship piramids of mars and a few others lostin
space I think
The game I will most miss is cosmoserve.
though thinking of it now it would be weird to play it in a windows
environment.
dos related screens don't work so well anyway, in hugo playing futureboy
the screen in the fake dos window of the computer does not read.
using the solution file I am able to solve that part of the game but I
can't muck with the interface which is a shame.
This is one reason why I still wish I had a dos system.

well I didn't care for zork myself dungeon and dunjin were my things I
played.
on that note is there any way to play agt files in windows like you
play other files I have tads and frotz working hugo and glulx which I
am happy using right now but agt and maybe a windows advint interpreter
would make a cool addition for the stuff that uses it.
unfortunately there are several dos games I know which I can't play but
stil the majority is playable now.
To be honest haiden, I never got on well with zork, but then again I
personally prefer if games which have more background than just "go
into the dungeon and grab treasures" and more than random puzles.
In fact I must admit, some if puzles just irritate me for their total
lack of logic.
"ah, so I was supposed to open the catch on the rusty door by blowing
the whistle at the bird to scare it off, getting the egg from the
nest, then droping the newspaper and twigs on the floor and using the
magnifying glass to focus sunlight, then putting the dustbin lid
ontop, dropping in the egg, frying it and using it to greace the rusty
latch!" how silly of me not to realize that perfectly rational change
of logic!
I must confess this is why I don't really play much If anymore, sinse
it's too much trouble to try and filter the to me, interesting
exploration and story based stuff from all the games based on absurd
puzles which i then need to look at a walkthrough to guess.
Of course, this might just be because I'm probably more inclined
toward rpgs and that style of play myself in general, and didn't grown
up with the classic if or get into the method of playing it.
Beware the grue!
Dark.

Hi Dark,
In regards to an earlier post of yours, I know what you mean. I was
playing
the zcode version of zork, and I had no idea how to enter the mirror
to get
to the door in the endgame. The walkthrough I had said "enter the
box". This
did work at all. I found out that I had to simply type "enter". That
was a
relief to finally figure out, though exasperating none the saime--I
do like
the way that one was combined from the three infocom zorks, and it
doesn't
hurt they added a bit here and there.
Best Regards,
Hayden
