    My savegame has corrupted. I can't get the "Drum of Victory" quest in Garrotte Gorge, and although I've delivered all the Fire Resistance potions in Rust — and Hobert acknowledges that I have — the quest steadfastly refuses to leave the list of quests to be done, and show up in the Awards listing.

    Oh well, start again, I guess . . .

You might try forcing a respawn...

How would I do that in MM8, Bones?

One way is to spend a few years in jail....

    The respawn times are given on our MM8 site: Reference -> Regions -> Description. However....

    I think there's a way to get around that. The game references every region by a number. I used those numbers to construct our MM8 site, so if you look at the link to (for example) the reference section on Regna you'll see that it points to 'rr13s.html'. Regnas's number is 13. Changes that you make to a region are saved in a file somewhere in the MM8 directory structure. Regna's file would start with 'r13', iirc. Deleting the file with the changes would force the game to create a new file for the region the next time you entered it.

    NB: Make sure that your party is NOT in that region when you delete the file. If it is then the game will just save your changes to that region based on your savegame file. (In fact, a savegame file is just a file of the region or dungeon that your party is currently in.)

    I have a pretty good understanding about how the game is put together, but I barely remember the game itself and, in truth, never finished it. I'm still hanging onto an old computer so perhaps I'll play it through someday.

I have a vintage 1999 laptop that I use to play MM6-8 as they should be played

    It won't handle MM9, though.

    But I play them most often on a desktop I bought in about 2002, which has a Win98 partition. I still have the disks for Win98, but it won't install on the modern computers. Even the Win 98 Virtual Machine won't handle the games.

    But remembering the games is not a problem, although the details on MM7 are pretty misty. I was really disappointed by a few things in that game.

Hi Klar! Good to hear from you again!

    I haven't joined anybody at all yet. I decided to do as many of the side-quests as I could before starting the Alliance quests. Maybe that's the problem!

    A long-stemmed rose, to be exact, because I'm fond of Klar and glad to have her back here.

    You're using the GOG downloaded game, yes? I'm using the disc version, and I've never had that trouble before. Strange . . .

    I've played this game many times & it's the one quest I always have trouble finding the full list - even though they're all in close proximity!
