While playing, go to the menu (the floppy disk button), click on Preferences, then click on Resolution at Startup until it says Don't Change Resolution underneath it. When you restart the game, it will in an 800x600 rectangle in the center of your screen surrounded by a black border. Note that you will need to manually change your display to 16-bit (high color) graphics for the game to work. -------------------- "You're drinking liquor because you're thirsty?

I truly am not trying to start a war. I'm just tired of Mac users dragging out the "We don't get viruses" argument. Is MacOS X more secure than Windows XP? Probably. Could viruses be written for MacOS X if enough time was spent on it? Undoubtedly. One could actually make the argument that it would be easier to write a virus for MacOS because Apple shares the source code. Oh, and for the record, with the exception of the open-source thing, all those security features have counterparts in Windows XP SP2. I don't particularly care for Windows either; I merely prefer open architecture, which is something you can't get with a Mac. Thralni, I suppose "an other" is not technically improper grammar, but the common Engish usage is 'another'.

For as long as forums have existed, there has been spam. Creating a topic specifically for spam just increases the spam. quote:Dear God. If every topic that went off-topic were locked... well there would be few if any open topics. :P quote:Why would someone be asking for help with a game in the General forum? :P quote:Bad idea.

I'll be the first to say that Nethergate deserves to be replayed many times, but if you have not already played it, you might want to wait for the new version.
