    I've uploaded the files and PMed and emailed Morpheus. I did a basic test and it loads, and I was greeted by Kent in Hommlet. We will see how the rest of it works out. I've unstickied this thread as well.

    Some more weird stuff:

    1. The maplist.mes in "Install Options\No Fog\modules\ToEE" is: a) located in the wrong place ("ToEE" should be "Co8-5.0.0"); b) looks to be outdated and doesn't include Allyx's verbo-mod maps.

    2. Desperate Housewives in "Install Options\Desperate Housewives" has the "modules\ToEE" folder instead of "modules\Co8-5.0.0"

    3. "Install Options\ShopMap\No clothes at start" has the subfolder "data.Co8-4.0" instead of "data.Co8-5.0.0"

    4. Not sure if "temple.dll.bck" is intentional in Install Options\ShopMap

    @ Shiningted: Yeah, a privilege of being a moderator - I'm able to cheat a little while no one's lookin' ;))))

    Hope this helps.

    Well, Agetian, that's what you get for downloading files that were only intended for Morpheus. It is not the finished product, not the "release". And for the record, I only count 11 .BAK files in meshes. I wouldn't call that really bad. Anyway, I'm moving this to another thread.

    @ Cerulean: Well, I wouldn't be specifically angry for that -- the idea behind downloading the preliminary file set by me *was* to take a look at how well it was packaged in the first place, and look out for possible packaging bugs so that Morpheus has less problems creating an installation package (not exactly to play before the release time). The "meant for Morpheus" thing doesn't mean it should be fairly self-explanatory and well-made. If the thing doesn't work in the prepackaged form (and the prepackaged form *was* meant for Morpheus to create an installer from), or has tons of leftovers inside, it's a good path to add more bugs in the final release. It's always possible, for Morpheus or someone else (anyone I'd say!), to just leave some bugs from the prepackage and move them on into the final installer. So I'd say it's always a good idea to prepare stuff in the best form possible. I understand though that you were kinda pressed for time since we set a date for the release, that's why I decided to help and take a look. If that makes you feel bad or angry, well sorry - but that's what the modder's work feels like (*every* modder's work I might add, I felt much the same way lots of times). I always thought positive (and not destructive) critcism was something good, not bad.

    Anyway, feel free to move or delete this post at your wish, I don't specifically care.
