Patch will become available thru trescom and fileplanet


Apply only to the demo version of tc_isle (30 minute timer ver-
sion) as it won't work with any other version. You shouldn't
notice any change except to the b29's windows which
should solve that nasty software crash.[/i]

Hopefully, the upload went ok (geocities doesn't behave well
with larger files (5mbs)).

A little more please, machf. The patch failed? (If you're at-
tempting to download need to right click and save target).
Or, was the downloaded file corrupt...?

Dan, don't thank me until it works. :D

Just got that awful message, "file is not available". Not sure if it means your site exceede bandwidth limit, or the file can't be found...

Of course, that was back then. I haven't tried again yet...

Nope, still the same. "This page is not available".

This is annoying. Apparently, you can only download it using M$IE...

Uh, yes. Actually,
it crashed near the B29 in both Wine/Linux and Windows if I played TC-Isle in software mode.

Since this is possibly a common problem in both Linux and Windows, if it's fixed in Windows, I guess that it will work in Linux, too.

If you're using firefox, just cut n' paste the address, Machf.
That'll work.

Yochenhsieh, yea same softmare glitch existed in Windows
environment as well. We were always aware of it, though
since we built the level around hardware rendering we al-
ways discouraged software mode -- I personally never an-
ticipated linux becoming a consideration....

That certainly is a rather... peculiar behavior.

Definitely, but it works. Anyways, post up when you gents
got the file successfully. The site keeps going over its band-
width allowance, so I want to del the file soon.

I did like you said and copy and pasted the link into the Firefox address window. I got it downloaded fine, thanks! :)

I did it that way to confirm it, though I had already downloaded it with M$IE earlier...

Link's removed. MadPpiper moved the file to trescom/file
planet, so at some point I imagine it'll be available to the
g.p. again.....

*I'm assuming the bug's been fixed; no one actually said
anything to the contrary.

TCIsle takes a little bit more patience to install since it has the keygen which will not work in Linux. I have to drag the files over to Windows XP to do it, then back to Linux so I've not gotten to it yet. I think I have TCIsle already installed on my old SuSE 9.1 installation so I'll likely boot into SuSE and try it from there. Thanks again! :)

The TC-Isle demo doesn't require password to install. Despite that, the tresword utility does work with wine in Linux. (Wine now has a fake-registry system like Windows, so now the keygen has no problem in Wine.)
However, I cannot extract the zip file which I downloaded from Rebel's link. I'll wait until the fileplanet link posted and try again...
