Re: Downloads of fixed game images are broken
I don't think a single uploaded game I've looked at had that information, for what it's worth.
It's possible that of the people who have supplied fixed games only Dave, Samwise, and myself ever read that thread when it was originally posted. As I said, I had completely forgotten about it so I ...

Re: Downloads of fixed game images are broken
Downloads of fixed game images are broken if they're not in a zip file. Someone just told me that my upload of an atr disk image for The Halls of Death was broken, so I tried it myself and they were right. I've uploaded a new disk image to replace the old one, but DON'T UNZIP IT!
Thanks Garry ...

Re: Editing user profile not working?
Unfortunately, or should that be fortunately for all concerned :D , I cannot edit the profiles of other users on the main site.
I tried editing my own profile and again it worked, all I needed to do was to log on to the forum first before opening a tab for the main site. Therefore there is no need ...

Re: Editing user profile not working?
Addendum to what I typed above:
Make sure you are not logged in to CASA, close your browser, restart your browser, log in to the forum, etc.
Of course it would be far better if it just worked.

Re: Editing user profile not working?
And now it's working again!
Equinox, try the following. Log out, log in to the forum, click on your user name near the top right and choose "Profile", beside where it says "Username: Equinox" click on "Edit profile" (I'm assuming everyone has this option and it's not admin only), ignore that page ...

Re: Editing user profile not working?
I'm having the same trouble now. I'll see if I can work out if I did anything different this time round.

Re: Editing user profile not working?
Equinox, I take it you mean editing your profile on the main site (solutionarchive.com) rather than on the forum (solutionarchive.com/phpBB3)?
I've just tried editing my profile on the main site and it allowed me to add (and delete) a "favourite platform" without problem. So you might have faced a ...

Re: Catacombs
Jason,
a. I had previously taken the cloak before wearing it and done the same for another item you can wear thus causing the inventory limit problem. It was this bug that prevented me from getting the plug.
b. The laundry bag and a few other items don't serve any purpose (for example the rug doesn ...

Re: Catacombs
I've completed the original PET version. For anyone who wishes to play I suggest using the same machine settings that I used.
I used VICE PET.
Under Preferences > Settings
Machine > Model
choose "Model" = PET 4032B (since it is a British game)
and "Display width" = 40 Columns
Peripheral devices ...

Re: Catacombs
Collecting the sphere gives you points in the PET version and although there is a clue on how to deal with the zombie there does not seem to be any reason why you should deal with him as he causes little hindrance.

Re: Catacombs
Update.
The manure is in the castle area. Unfortunately all of the castle area seems to be dark which makes extensive exploration difficult as the lamp keeps going out.

Re: Catacombs
I've spent some time with the original PET version. I now know what you need to get past the web (LanHawk was right), it then took me ages to realise that in this version the silver throne itself is the treasure and is not part of an additional puzzle.

Re: Umlauts and other diacritics are broken
Hannes, there are no games attributed to FrantiÅ¡ek Fuka and JiÅ™i Koudelka so deleting those entries is not a problem. The question that you have now made me realise is which is the correct spelling for František Fuka/Frantisek Fuka and Jiři Koudelka/Jiri Koudelka? Not knowing the answer I will ...

Re: Umlauts and other diacritics are broken
The problem with Jiři Koudelka and František Fuka is that they are actually duplicates. When I tried correcting them, it is not possible due to that.
So should I delete FrantiÅ¡ek Fuka and JiÅ™i Koudelka, then rename Frantisek Fuka and Jiri Koudelka to František Fuka and Jiři Koudelka ...

Re: Umlauts and other diacritics are broken
Garry, you won't be able to see it because it is admin only, but there is a page for editing authors' names and details which shows all of the names entered on the site. So there is no need for to go through individual entries to find problem names. The same goes for "Genre", "Publisher", "System ...
