There were far more versions of the game than those three. That aside, I was speaking of specifically a stand-alone demo app that could not be registered, and which let the user play the same three levels as 1.9 eventually allowed the user to play before registering. With 1.9, we retired the old demo version of the game for good. Actually, I think we may have retired it before that, anticipating the 1.9 release, but my memory is sketchy on that point. In any case, there has *never* been any version of MonkeyBusiness released by *any* company that was over 1000MB. *snip* > What I do however, is an issue with your current Windows version of Ten Pin > Alley. > You list its version as 1.1.0. > When someone loads it today, it is in fact version 1.2.0. > And for some strange reason, it cannot under any circumstances be run under > Windows XP. > I know that Windows 7 and theoretically Vista should work, but it is not > working for XP. > The still listed version 1.1 however has no such problems and it is not a > question of the game being registered or not. > You couldn't register the 1.2 release under XP, because you would be > confronted with a nice Run Time error, and all this happens on a system which > is more filled with older libraries and such components normally dropped in > Windows 7 or later by default. *snip* This is the first we have heard of any problems with TPA under XP. In fact, we know of several people playing TPA just fine under XP, so the problem you describe likely has nothing to do with the OS version. What I can tell you, and this goes for all of our titles, is that we are currently focused on revamping all titles to work with the new game engine. In doing so, the games will be modernized and streamlined. This should solve a lot of the legacy problems with older titles, especially the old ESP Softworks ones. --- Gamers mailing list __ [email protected] If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to [email protected].
