Subject: Re: How to get to MM/JSW files?

 

Thanks for the summary of what happened, Danny. I remember it clearly now. It was truely a death by a thousand cuts - in trying to accommodate all the ideas and feedback on difficulty, etc, I ended up stalling and losing interest. Sometimes it's best to throw things out there and call them done, I suppose, and then you can fix stuff with a patch afterwards. At least it gets out there that way!

Thanks for sending me my JSW files, much obliged! I remember Erix1 created an amazing loader and artwork for Role Reversal, but something happened with him leaving the scene, and it fell through.

Can't say I'm liking the new Yahoo groups! There's an old (and rather obvious) trueism "If it ain't broke, don't fix it" but it seems the folks at all the major websites insist on changing and obfuscating the layout biannually, presumably just to keep themselves in a job :>

Happy (belated) New Year! 2014 - doesn't sound right, does it? :) It's the FYOOCHA!
