hi all, its been quite awhile from the last time I logged on and I was wondering...

whats the latest beta of ZC?

also, whats the latest stable version?

i've been pretty inactive with ZC for quite awhile and would like to get back into it and make some quests!

so yeah, just wondering about the versions. thanks :)

Edit: also i've read the stickies, but they dont really seem to cover much. :P

Shardstorm.com.

All the 2.5 betas are there. Generally, the newest is the stablest.

Holy crap, look who it is. Yeah, each new build of 2.5 gets better and better.

thanks! i'll just use the latest version then.... good god so many new things from the last time I used it! lol good to be back... now to spend hours upon hours getting resources for the game :p

Edit: i'm having trouble starting it up, I get this error:

"This application has failed to start because alleg42.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem."

I dont have any installer... it was just a zip file with stuff in it that I put in a folder. any ideas?

You have Windows 98, right? Sounds like you're having the same problem Freedom is having in This thread (http://www.armageddongames.net/forums/showthread.php?t=103388).

I had the same problem. However, I just simple had to rename the file called alleg42_crt.dll to alleg42.dll. See if it works for you.

Yep, that's what you have to do. The devs just forgot to rename the file appropriately. Just do that and it will work.

thanks, works now. is there suppose to be alot of static in it? (edges of the map edit area and a box named "favorites" are fuzzy) also, it looks like I have 3 tile sections. if this is part of a new feature, what is it for? the 3 sections are basicly the same tileset 3 times o.O

Yeah, that's the new "large" mode - it's supposed to look like that. If you want to use ZQuest as the regular mode, open up ZC Launcher (the yellow icon in the ZC folder), go to the ZQ tab, and uncheck "Large". Naturally, you can toggle between fullscreen and windowed modes like this too. A very nifty program indeed.
