Not sure if this is a "bug" or not, or if anyone else has encountered it (either I'm too dumb to find the Search capability for the forum or there isn't one...).
I installed ZC 2.10 (from the downloads page of zeldaclassic.com). I have two accounts on my Windows XP Pro machine, one that is an Admin account and one that is not. When attempting to launch ZC in the non-admin account, I got the dreaded "1st.qst" error, and I could not get ZC to load a quest file despite trying various recommendations from the ZC FAQ and forums.
I discovered, however, that I am able to run ZC 2.10 when logged into the Admin account, so it seems ZC needs to have some sort of read/write/modify permission to execute quests (?). This seems obvious (#define HINDSIGHT 20/20) now that I've thought about it, but the error messages I got were vague and I forget stuff like that too quickly.....
Anyway, now that I'm up and running, I'm having a blast! Thanks for the great game / editor!
