Mayday DFG9.zip question(not working)
« on: July 28, 2008, 06:10:52 pm »

I went to Mayday's site here http://mayday.w.staszic.waw.pl/df.htm and clicked on all of the links to download DFG9.zip and none of them seem to work. When I click on the links it downloads a 3mb zip file but when I try to extract it windows tells me that the file is empty. Is anyone else getting this or do any of you know of a working link for version 9?

I got that too. Not sure why...
I used a regular extract command to unzip it.

I'm using winrar to unzip it.. worked just fine.

If this is the default unzip feature your using from windowsxp/vista... I wouldn't be surprised it doesn't work.

I was using the default vista unzip program. I'll try winrar. Thanks!

One more question. I don't get any sound in the game with Mayday's version. Is this a known issue? All I change in the init file is the resolution. There is sound in the intro but not the game and the sound works just fine in other versions. This is the init file.

Pretty sure Mike stripped out the sounds.  (They get pretty annoying anyway)

Odd I get the sounds just fine, did he update it for the 39d/39e version? I just took he files that mattered and transferred them to the new version and it worked fine, a few things have different pics than they should I think (like turtles seem to be uncut green gems) but not a big deal.
