Thats weird, the site should be up. The zip file works for me!

BTW: I WILL do a Lappy 486 emulator!

I reuploaded the download.html file, the link was corrupted. File works now

Its strongbad_email.exe

Edgarware.exe wasnt included in the first beta.

IMPORTANT I need someone to give me the notes from when Strong Bad boots his computer (email 41) or the flagrent error (email 50)

Whenever I type "medalliongoldplus.txt" it just plays the fight song then crashes. Is an all-around problem or just native to WinXP?

I just looked at the code. Its a bug, I forgot to put a GOTO statement in. Thanks for pointing this out.

futuramaooy · **Posted:** Mon Nov 29, 2004 10:35 pm

Yeah, that happened to me as well.

Also, do you think you can program DELORTED! into it?

I'm going to be uploading Beta 0.02 in about five minutes.

I downloaded it, and it worked okay, but I couldn't really figure out how to get out of it without having to use external commands. You should make an "exit" command to leave the program or something like that.

futuramaooy · **Posted:** Mon Nov 29, 2004 10:55 pm

just write crap and it will go away.

There is an exit command. At any point you can type "cya" without the quotes and the program will exit.

hm, it does work, but i worte a bad file name once and it went away.

Okay. Hmm. I tried "exit", "quit", but "cya". Nope. Didn't think to try that. Sorry if it seems like everyone in this topic is telling you what to do, but you should definitely incorporate a few more "universally popular" exit commands.

In the next version that wont work. You'll have to type Exit or cya, that crash was also bug which has been resolved.

Remember, I am still working on this and its in beta. This wasnt intended to even be released to the public for weeks, thats why exit commands (except cya) are not built in yet. They will be in the next beta I release (in about 10 minutes).

I know, there was a critical bug in the release I was just about to put out causing the user to have to reboot if they were running this on a older computer.
