my 'no warranty for explosions' guide to getting blood running right on xp

http://xoopx.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/blood.html


also for dosbox users, the dos32a to replace dos4gw is worthwhile for the speedup

For those who passed it:

I finished the first three episodes (including all the secret levels), and now I'm playing the last one. I was stuck in the game only once before (beginning 2nd level, ep3, before I found out by accident that throwing dynamite over the fence actually does something ), and I didn't really expect to be stuck again. But....

Forgot exaclty which level it is. It's full of lava, and in the middle of that is a huge hose with a wrecked roof. Now, I searched everything around it, passed all the passages that surround the house (including the secret one (with the two teleporters)), I eventually came to othe top of the house. And to my huge suprise there was a skull key door. Not having found the key yet I was a bit confused. A big chunk of the wall right next to the door was missing, so I tried throwing dynamite at that, but it wouldn't break. Searched around the rest of that room, and found the elevator shaft (leads back to the bottom of the house/tower), and a skull (not the key, a "drawing" of the skull). I "opened" it and it "grinned", and I expected at least the elevator to come, but nothing happened.

Did I miss anything? Where is the skull key ? What does the skull button do ?

gt wont release the sourcecode for blood, and its not up to ken silverman (who has released the build engine) they dont really understand the idea.. lawyers.
but monolith have given permission for transfusion to use the media in their remake of blood using quake engine. but its only multiplayer.. they seem to have completely stalled the project for a long time.

it makes no sense to release the source for blood 2 but not 1. no sense at all.

[The Duke]

[JJXB]
