I forgot to mention this in the post, and in the document, but each line with a space before it is a new error, the parentheses enclose what I think it should be changed to, and the brackets are where I think it is, for easier access.

Okay, here are some more from the spell checker. Since my English is quite bad, check them before you apply.

There's a "Beathro" in the scroll text in the Invisibility Training Room (sorry if that already got mentioned above somewhere).

Believe me, I can't even speak English correctly. But it's probably good enough to fool any French person...

Are you French perhaps? Oh... wait... ;)

Well, technically then, I'm half fooled. I'm still waiting for you to make *any* mistake though ;) You're correcting grammar and spelling for this hold and therefore I believe your English is better than most. Most English people that is.

As I already said, I've only ran it through the "spell checker".

That also means that I did not check for any grammar errors. Perhaps someone else can do that?

OK, I'm struggling a lot with Wretched Bog: 1N 1E. I can't see how to get the mimic onto the trapdoor at the same time as I reach the other one.

Another Roach infestation! Nothing I have'nt seen before. HA!

Should be haven't.

And that's the only error I see.

Also, great hold! I can't wait to see your next release! Here's to more great scripting functions to make your next hold even better.

I had a help request at the very bottom of the last page, which I think was ignored because it was, well, the last post on the page.

Thanks - was having a bit of a blind spot there. I'm not sure where to go now, though :(

I'm probably dense, but I don't understand how that will allow me to kill the roaches. I can either set two golems on either side of the save point or one to the side and one in front, but either way doesn't give me an escape route and I die within two turns.

The save point in this room is not an advantage at all.

Okay, I'm worried about downloading the new file. When it overwrites my previous version, will I have to start all over from the beginning of the hold? It says that "only saved games compatible with the new file will be left intact." I hope this means that it will just validate my demos and leave me alone if they still work. Given that you mostly just fixed spelling errors, my demos should still work, so I'm hoping that's the case. Besides, I'm only in the first dark temple (which is why I brought up how the blue/mosaic tiles aren't showing up).
Continue Playing Game and Restore both better work.


Also, about the blue mosaic tiles, I think I know what you're talking about. These tiles are seen in U-Man's Temple 1N. Also, a one-way portal in Dark Eethur leads to a semicircle of the blue mosaic stuff in Eethur. But these tiles aren't appearing in Evil Chill Wasteland. Maybe I'm just unlucky.
I hope they'll show up when I get the new version. I might have had an upload problem when I downloaded the previous one . . . I don't know.

Kwakstur, I think you are running JtRH demo version, otherwise you would have all three room styles, so the tiles would show up blue.

I've changed the text to read mosaic, and not blue, but you will still not get the blue tiles, and keep the purpple rocks (unless you get the full version of JtRH). Another reason I can't put in custom blue tiles is you can only have one custom floor in each room, and that is taken by the portal textures.

If you upgrade the hold to the new version, continue playing won't work straight away. You will have to use the restore function, and restore to the newest or last unconquered room you found.

Oh, I thought you said that you were using the demo version, as well, so I assumed that you made the entire hold in Foundation. Which would have meant that the blue tiles would be custom (because all the noncustom blue tiles are in Iceworks.)

I wonder why I thought you had the demo version?

I'm gonna go update the hold, now.

EDIT: Oh, zex20913 at one point said you had the demo version.

Words in my mouth!

I said geomatrx didn't have CaravelNet. I said nothing about the demo version. CaravelNet is an (I would say essential) add-on to the full version. (For $12 per year.)
