well, ive got a problem. i was playing level 8, and accidentally had two windows of the same level opened. well, i didnt think it would hurt any, so i played one and kept the other opened. after a little while, one closed on its own once i died, so i started playing the other one. well, that one closed too on its own after i died, and now it wont let me open my game. is it because of a corrupted dat. file? i restarted from level 1 now, after reinstalling, and it works there, but how would i get my old game back (yes, i saved the old folder).

I know that the new version of DROD doesn't let you open more than one instance of DROD at once, so this bug probably won't happen when 1.6 is released. However, if you just want to play the game, I would suggest staying with the version you have (1.5). Just don't open more than one instance of the DROD in the future!

Someone else may be able to help you recover, I wouldn't know how to to it in the original Caravel 1.5.

Game on,
