I did get a message (very quickly) after e-mailing the makers of this game regarding my technical questions. They said that T & L should not be necessary to run the game. They have listed some questions for me to answer about my computer's specs, to try to figure out why the video and the demo won't run on my computer. I think Nickie is having the same sort of trouble with the demo, so hopefully we will find out the answer.

Johnboy..I also order the game, and got confirm e-mail from paypal, and also the money was withdrawn from my bank account, but no, I didn't get an e-mail from billy that the game has been shipped yet.. duh

I will wait, because I know billy is very busy with all the orders he has been getting and it is understandable if it takes a little while longer..But not to much okay Billy...

I need a new game to play..and I am very anxious in playing this one...It's been a while since I have been anxious in playing a game..And this one looks promising...

I did not get a confirmation from paypay, but when I go to the site the funds that were there are gone and it says they were sent to Billy. But no confirmation from either party. duh

I ordered the game and got a confirmation from PayPal for the transaction, but I got no email from Billy. The game arrived yesterday and I can't wait to play it. Of course, there is no walkthrough for this game yet (I always need one as a crutch laugh ) so I wonder how many times I'll be asking for help at the Hints Forum. whistle

Bryansmom and L4L, I have the game installed and running now and it usually plays beautifully. It is particularly sensitive to any programs running in the background.
It is a lot of fun!

Speaking of great service, Bill has been working with me in e-mails, trying to figure out why I can't get the demo to work. Since my computer meets the specs, we have come to the conclusion that it is my dial-up connection having problems with downloading it. Bill has actually offered to write a small demo for me to try! I have written him and told him that I don't want him to go to that much trouble, and I am going to order the game tonight. If the game doesn't work with my computer that I have today, I am sure it will work with the new computer we plan to get this year. I think Nickie and I have similar computers, so the game will probably work with this computer. I'm just amazed at the great service and caring about his customers that Bill has shown! I'm now a permanent fan of any game he makes.
Happy gaming,
Beth

I like Zoo Tycoon, too! In fact, I have spent hours making my zoos (concentrating more on the playground construction aspect for some reason, instead of animal habitats) and then looked up and realized it was morning! After I ordered Last Half of Darkness, a screen came up with the names of some of Bill's other games, and Funhouse of Terror is one of them (it will be included on the CD-ROM of Last Half of Darkness). In it, we will be able to create a scary amusement park with an emphasis on the terror! So I think that will be even more fun than Zoo Tycoon. (Although, letting the T-Rex out of its cage in Zoo Tycoon does have a lot of thrill value....) lol

My game arrived today! I'm just waiting for my son to go to bed before I start the game, because he will be over my shoulder watching (and commenting) otherwise! lol Nothing like a 12-year-old boy watching over your shoulder to take you out of a game environment!

I have all of the lights off, so the only light is coming from the computer. I've been playing for about an hour and a half now.

Just before I went online to write this note, I had a horrible scare!! I was in one of the bedrooms of the game, looking around, and happened to look down because I thought I saw a movement. There, next to my hand on the desk was a real SPIDER! I felt like I was nearly having a heart attack! For a second, I had to think of whether it was a real spider or part of the game! Wow! As if I haven't had enough scares from this game already! lol

Aw Happy, sorry you're having a problem. Have you checked if ANYTHING is running in the background? The game is really sensitive to virus protection, firewall, and if there's an activity center enabled (like mine is called hp center, for Hewlitt Packard). I felt really silly when I saw what a difference it made to turn all that off! I hope your problem is something simple like that, but if it isn't, please post and we'll try to figure out what's going wrong!

I had to disable my McAfee virus protection to get the game to install. I thought that it would be okay after that to turn it back on and run the game, but the game wouldn't run with the virus protection on, so I had to turn it off again. Just be sure to turn your virus protection back on after you've finished with your game playing session; especially before you go online! (If you happen to have McAfee, if you disable it, the letter "M" in your toolbar at the bottom right of your computer will have a black background instead of a red background. Make sure it is red again before going online).

Also, I found that since I just ordered and received my copy of the game, it was the most up-to-date version, so I didn't need the patch. So it's good to check the version you have before downloading the patch. You can check the version from the menu screen; I think under "credits."

Very good suggestion..
AFAIK, the latest version is 1.4.3 (Yes :- under "Credits"). If you have that, there's no need to patch.
Anything less is probably worth while patching ... it's only about 4MB. www.lasthalfofdarkness.com/patch.htm

I don't know what a 'pressed' CD is ?!
But mine has the reverse side completely 'painted' white with "last half of darkness" splashed all over it in black and "Shadows of the Servants --- WRF Studios" superimposed in black print.

I said "pressed" as in factory pressed, with painting on one side.

Not that it matters much (it was just out of curiosity, since the game apparently has a printed manual, I was just wondering about the cd since the recent copies are already updated). I'm ordering it anyway. smile
