Sorry I'm so late. It completely slipped my mind. Anyway, here are the savegames. I hope to receive information about the hex-editing soon.

Credits go to the guy with the nickname Reanimator, not me!

Having trouble playing the game I lets me choose a character but then the screen goes black and nothing happens any advice on what to do? (New at playing old dos games so any help will be appreciated.)

Download DosBox from here and try to run the game in it. Also here you can find a manual for the DosBox with description of all commands and how to run it.

Saphire, thanks for the walkthrou and maps DHL link. Very good indeed!

I am playing the speech version, which makes the game 10x better! But one little thing can show you how games are not the same any more. And that is just watching the intro and seeing the little goblin running to his Mistress and having to take a little breather in the middle of the stairs! That was probably no more than a few minutes work and yet it shows how the developers/publishers thought. Even a character killed straight away gets a personality by that little breather at the top of the stairs! In any modern game, that gremlin would run up those stairs in one go and not be out of breath at the top because the developer/publisher would say 'lets save a couple bucks by not bothering, given the character is a bit part!' That's if they would even give it even that much thought!

So that little guy, taking a breather halfway up the stairs is a little thing, but it says so much!

That's what I liked about the early Westwood games, they always produced a feeling of a real, lively world where the player was a part of it. Certainly made with love for detail and the work.

Can't get it to work. I am using an up to date sytem. Is it even posible? I have tried almost everything.
