Ugh, do I have to register in order to download? Oh well, the file is to big to commit over 4 hours to download. I guess I'll wait till some users have comment on the game and the download link has changed. Looks intersting though and voice acting is a plus.

Please. I can't find a way to download on the site either. Rapidshare isn't exactly my favourite, but I'll take it over the one you're using any time.

Or try http://www.upload2.net (http://www.upload2.net). I hate the load times to download from it, but it's very reliable and I've never experienced problems with it. Plus, you don't have to register, or give them any sort of personal crap.  ::)

Ok I have switched to rapid share. I'm not sure how to use it though.

After uploading you should have received a "download" link, which is what you should link to.

I dunno what you've linked to at the moment, because it just doesn't work.

Well the link seems to be hthttp://rapidshare.com/files/24668247/LifandtheTreasureoftheTanonesInstaller.exe.html
So remove the extra ht from the start and it should work.
I'll propably try this tomorrow...

Sorry about that problem and thanks zabnat, I accedintly put an extra ht before the link location. It works fine now.

I use savefile.com or uploading.com myself... anyway, I'll try downloading (dumb dial-up will take a dang long time though)

Wow, that's the quickest download I've ever experienced! Looking very good, joel - but I've hit a major bug. Lif constantly repeats "Thats the wrong combination", and there's no way to stop it, or exit the game once that happens...
Title: Re: Lif and the Treasure of the Tanones
Post by: joelphilippage on Sat 07/04/2007 23:02:44
Ok I think I know why that happens. On the combination gui module, you are supposed to put in the repeatedly execute of the room a command that gets if you typed in the wrong combination. I can't really fix this unless the module is fixed or I redo the code with hotspots or something. Just make sure you know the combination before you open the safe. I may fix this if people find enough big bugs for me to make a patch.

You might want to document the key for bringing up the main menu. And the fact that the game uses a verbcoin. And the fact that pressing ESC while walking will teleport you to your destination. These are all things that ought to be documented, especially the latter, as people will love it.

Well, I know I do.

Anybody having a problem with loading a saved game? I have started this game three times from the beginning because I can't get a saved game to load, it keeps saying "please select a saved game to load" I keep trying and trying but it won't work. Am I doing something wrong?

I deleted the game, downloaded it again and started again and the same thing is happening, I cannot load a saved game. When I am playing the game, I save, go to another scene then hit F1, load the game I saved and that works but its when I quit the game, come back and try to load it won't work.

I finally got the load game to work and finished the game.
A few bugs but I can only remember one

How did you fix the save game bug? I would like to know.
Title: Re: Lif and the Treasure of the Tanones
Post by: Joyce on Mon 09/04/2007 22:52:05
I hope this makes sense because I am not very technical.

I started game, clicked on Load Game, selected the saved game, hit the space bar until the cursor on the saved game was to the far right and then hit Load and it worked.

I could only load the last game I saved, it won't let you select any other games

Wow. This turned out to be a lot better than I thought it was going to be. Good job
I found a bug though-if you click on the top of the cave while it's still boarded up Lif goes there and like goes behind the cave and stuff, the graphics go wacky and then you get stuck there and can't move any where else.

I have decided to make a patch to the game because of all the really big bugs. If you find anymore please post them or send me a personal message.

Is the ending when Lif is behind the cactus with the rainstick? Can't get there again because game freezes when trying to move the boulder with stick. Enjoyed the game so much it really doesn't matter  since I'm so close to the end. Thanks for the great game.

Ok I have finished the Patch. It fixes all the problems listed so far. Also for the load game problem, I programmed  It so you would have to type in the game you saved and then press load. It should work that way.
Here is the patch: http://lifsadventures.googlepages.com/Lif_and_the_Treasure_of_the_Tanones_.exe

Can still only load the last save game ?

No I think patches delete the old saved games. They also wouldn't be compatible with the new version.

I'm not sure why it only loads the last game. I will try to figure this out. You should only have to use one save game to beat the game seeing as how you can't get stuck or die.

Sorry to revive this topic, but...

How do I even play this game? I can walk around by pressing the left mouse button, I can open some big resized jar by right-clicking, and that's it. I can't interact with objects...

EDIT: well, THAT was kinda dumb... Holding the right button, d'oh.
EDIT 2: lol, it crashed. I give up.

See, children? That's the kind of posts you end up making when you don't eat all your greens and you don't read the manual.
Title: Re: Lif and the Treasure of the Tanones: Patch now released!
Post by: joelphilippage on Mon 27/08/2007 23:07:57
Also the game shouldn't crash if you have downloaded the patch.
