Castle Paradox

Aethereal · Posted: Thu Apr 17, 2003 4:29 am Post subject: The Son of Reviews, Part II.

Just cleaned out the review inbox. If you wrote a review within the past two weeks or so, you may wish to check the review list, because chances are it did not get accepted (the only ones that got accepted were MultiColoredWizard's Query II review and SSalamanderr's Worlds 3 review). I added comments to the rejected reviews, so you people who wrote reviews recently look them up in the list, and see what was wrong.

Thanks to everyone for the content.

Edit: I also felt I should mention that I got a CJB account for O:OHR, if you don't feel like having to access it through Castle Paradox. The address is: http://oohr.cjb.net.

I'm glad my review was good enough to be accepted! I'll probably be writing some more soon. If anyone has any comments on it I'll be happy to hear them.

Well, most of the battle backgrounds are ripped..

I thought they might be. They didn't look at all like the rest of the game. But I didn't want to say: TEH GRAFFIX R RIPPD! when I didn't know if they were or not. Thanks for clearing that up.

Ssalamanderr, I thought your review was one of the best on this site that I've read (although I certainly have not read them all, by any means). It was long enough to give the reader a fair idea of the game, but concise enough to keep the reader paying attention through to the conclusion. I also thought that you were very polite in your suggestions to the game author, and they were good in the sense that they were both short and worthwhile. That is the kind of review that I would like for my game, and that I wish I could write for another. I'm a couple hours into Wingedmene, and I have a couple things to say, but I don't feel my review will be as good as yours...

I was a reject. Oookay...

Now, my problem is that I can't take screenshots. I was under the impression that PrintScreen took them, cause it used to back when I was concerned with taking screenshots. Now, for whatever reason, PrintScreen comes out with this garbled-looking strangeness. PCX instead of BMP which I like, but it's not like I'm looking at anything. And yes, I have XP. Any solutions?

Try F12?

Either that, or go to:

http://www.downloads.com

and look up EasyPeg. That program comes with a Screen Capturer. You could play the game, use Alt+Enter to shrink the window, then capture it.

Really confused

............or ya know what, just do what Sew said! Really confused

Wait... did that just work around the no screen capturing in XP?

I didn't think you could run a game from the OHR or the editor in a window.

The screen freezes when you do it in a window.

Well, you CAN run it in a window...using Virtual PC. I have done it before. Unfortunately, for some reason, Virtual PC disables the printscreen key.
