Hey Cyclone.

Are we allowed to give out the Zelda-w.exe program to people we'd like testing our program? Without the quest editor, of coruse.

Someone else already asked me that, actually. And personally, I don't see why not; if they can't use the DOS version, I don't see a problem with someone acquiring the zelda.exe and any other files necessary for running the Windows version.

Just don't give them ZQuest, or DN will have my head. :kawaii:

If I can in fact do that for my beta testers, they will be able to test again! :)

Anyway, as far as I can see it, the required files would be:

zelda-w.exe (duh!)
The allegro library

Am I missing anything?

It would be nice if zelda-w.exe was actually downloadable somewhere else by itself (so Zquest isn't included) as I'm sure that Angelfire will not work with exe files. I'm also assuming I can link to the allegro library directly as well. If not, please tell me soon.

The person would also need 1st.qst, 2nd.qst and 3rd.qst to run ZC properly, though zelda-w could just be put in the beta 104 directory. Maybe a couple other things (like zgp.dat) would have to be updated as well.

I'm going to try to discuss this with either Glenn or DN. Or both. :kawaii:

Okay, the zelda-w.exe has been sent to 6 other people who couldn't play Fragments of Power and other quests of mine on their computers due to Windows XP and now it works like a charm they said! ;)

Well, is there a chance we can get that Windows version of ZC out to the public?


I might have to swap to (gulp) XP soon, and I don't want to be left out!

When will a Windows version of ZQ be given out like the beta release before 104?

That's what I'm trying to arrange; just without all of the hack and zquest stuff that went along with it.
