Back to the drawingboard. - Bones ( Wed 08-Dec-21 07:54:46 ) +1 There's also . . . - Peter2 ( Wed 08-Dec-21 12:45:51 ) And I have the opposite problem: I cannot reach the MM6 tavern... - Ramillies ( Wed 08-Dec-21 14:47:17 ) +1 I now have the same problem. - Peter2 ( Wed 08-Dec-21 15:19:39 ) OK, I think it's all working now.... - Bones ( Thu 09-Dec-21 00:15:16 ) +1 (Whoops!

(n/t) - Peter2 ( Thu 09-Dec-21 15:37:11 ) +1 Initially, the lights would only be loaded with the main Tavern page. Subsequent pages would have to inherit the lights from the main page.... - Bones ( Sat 11-Dec-21 14:04:21 )

• MM6-8 Merge Mod. I'm in love - Ossie ( Fri 15-Oct-21 02:44:21 ) +3 Wow! One more reason to play the Merge Mod. - Ramillies ( Fri 15-Oct-21 12:44:46 ) MergeMod uses Greyface patches. That why everything works. (n/t) - ragwort ( Tue 19-Oct-21 16:33:51 ) +1 True, but Grayface doesn't change any spell effects. So that must be due to efforts of the MergeMod. (n/t) - Ramillies ( Tue 19-Oct-21 17:37:51 )

(n/t) - Ossie ( Tue 05-Oct-21 00:29:20 ) A very interesting tidbit of information (n/t) - Peter2 ( Tue 05-Oct-21 09:54:19 ) Well, 3DO couldn't market anything... - Ramillies ( Sat 09-Oct-21 11:23:58 ) +2 If I can find them, there were a number of quotes illustrating the art of getting things wrong. - Peter2 ( Sat 09-Oct-21 15:59:52 ) +1 — I can supply a few more. - Ramillies ( Sat 09-Oct-21 18:12:16 ) +1 *: Forgot to say that... - Ramillies ( Sat 09-Oct-21 18:19:23 ) +2 Thank you – that's fascinating. - Peter2 ( Sun 10-Oct-21 04:44:23 ) Another memory has just surfaced in my mind – - Peter2 ( Sun 10-Oct-21 04:54:48 ) +1 Yes, there was, and in fact it was just the same coin. - Ramillies ( Sun 10-Oct-21 06:16:07 ) That's probably why . . . - The Elf ( Mon 11-Oct-21 11:42:06 )

• MM6/MM7/MM8 Merge Mod - Ossie ( Sat 02-Oct-21 20:14:23 ) +7 Approximately yes for the v1.0 MM6 game, if I understand your question correctly - Peter2 ( Sun 03-Oct-21 07:04:54 ) +2 Was fixed in MM6-v1.1. Since uses MM8 engine wouldn't expect a problem. MM6 had a level 60 limit though could edit to level 63(64?). (n/t) - ragwort ( Sun 03-Oct-21 16:18:45 ) Attributes, not Skills! - Ossie ( Sun 03-Oct-21 18:16:58 ) +1 Skill level. Never heard of Attribute limit. (n/t) - ragwort ( Mon 04-Oct-21 12:56:09 ) +1 You can certainly get a weapon that is "too good" in MM3, which I suspected was also due to attribute roll-over - Peter2 ( Tue 05-Oct-21 10:02:16 ) I guess that attribute overflow has never been observed... - Ramillies ( Sat 09-Oct-21 11:29:51 ) +1 Yeah I was sure it was Attributes, but - Ossie ( Sun 10-Oct-21 21:17:40 )
