Re: TFL Grave Deluxe download?

A copy of the file I downloaded in 2003 direct from The Idiot Collective shows a file size of 3.9 MiB (4,121,470) in openSUSE Linux, so 3.7 MB is too small unless it has been re-compressed somehow. I will upload my copy to the Tain. If you are in a great hurry, PM me an email address, and I will sen...

Re: Bug reports vaporware

Sorry. This item has been pending since last year, so maybe something weird happened. I just uploaded the file again.

Thanks.

After many trials and tribulations, I managed to create a fairly legible PDF of the manual under 10 MB. It has been submitted to the Tain.

Re: Looking for Myth III Instruction Manual

Here is the Table of Contents for the manual:

Introduction 5
Prologue 8
The World of Myth 12
The History of Myth 14
Getting Started 20
Playing the Game 25
Multiplayer Gaming 37

It's a 64 page manual, although the numbering is weird.

Re: Bushido Solo Films...

This is the first time I have submitted a file, so there is a pending item now which shows me as the author (which I am obviously not). I extracted some information from the readme to fill the description.

Let me know if I need to correct anything or do anything else. Thanks.

Installation This is a solo level intended for co-op play with the bushido tagset. To play, do these things: 1. Get the bushido units tagset if you don't ...

Download the attached screen preferences file, remove the .zip extension (don't try to extract the contents, it's not a real ZIP file), put it into your preferences folder and crank up Myth II.
