Hi Shaun,
Well, I don't see that adding hot keys to control music and ambience
volume will help. What I need to really know is why it is not restoring
values from your registry correctly. If this is broken then there is a
good chanse the games registration system is broken on x number of
Hi Karl,
That is interesting. I've been looking at my registry code, and it is by
the book so to speak. Everything looks very close to the tootorials I
pulled off the MSDN library. If there are two of you then we definitely
have a problem here. Maybe it doesn't happen in all cases, but
actually I had a look at the registry settings.
A load of said settings have true or false things, if I understand
false setting meaning off, then it appears that settings are being
saved correctly because I can see said setting in the registry if
false is on though we have a major issue.
I've never bothered changing speech voice or rate since these are for
the entire system and come from the speech tts dialogs.
I've only changed the music and ambience although I can play with
said things on so may not actually change them unless I really care to.
When I did the reload of monty I

Those are called boolian flags. False is off and true is on or in

I'll take a closer look at the keys themselves. You might be right that
it is successfully storing the values, but not retrieving them for some
reason.
In my tests thus far the settings

Well in that case its all saving not restoring, if the number type
works then that may be a good idea since IN the registry most stuff

Smile I've just moved the keys around a bit. As of beta 3 jump is on

So the system menu should no longer be an issue any longer.

All I can say at this point is that is weird. There is nothing in the

Hi, Nicol.
Since I am aiming for realism I won't change the effects, but unlike
some game devs I did leave all the sounds open for editing and
replacing. If you have some good 22500 or 44100 16 byt mono sound
samples you feel better with you can put them in the death and pain
sounds, and
Hi, Lucas and all.
The only two requirements for replacing sounds is that it is either
22500 or 44100 16 byt mono, and that it has the same file name as the
sound it is replacing. Beyond that you can custom the sounds all you want.

Hi, Lucas.
I'm working on a patch that corrects the falling off ladders and jumping
bugs you reported.
The demo you have on your system was done in four months from scratch.
One reason STFC has fallen behind in updates is that time was spent in
developing Monty from scratch.
