if you want people to look at your work I'd advise you to put up screen shot's. these forums have rules and your thread will be ruthlessly, but rightfully, locked otherwise.

I think you need more information before people will download ur game. all u said up top was about a new interface. get a video in here of gameplay or a couple more screen shots.

I downloaded it back when it was somewhere else in the forums, I think. I got stuck in the main menu and gave up.

Well Ill try to introduce you to the system

Its a wargame boardgame simulator , and has No Artificial Inteligence! you play by your boardgames rules like you would if you had a boardgame infront of you.

Now you need a map board.bmp make one or whatever in paint. you then need counters(chits) make them scan them download them whaever in paint flippedcounters.bmp gamecounters.bmp bigcounters.bmp flippedbigcounters.bmp.

now put them into the user directory of avalomhilly and startit up, You realy need a little savy , as it is a wargame sim! if you cant figure out the grid called gamecounters isnt self-explanatory well it will all probably be a bit hard for you!

no screenshots to speak of as its a host , that means all the screenshots would be of the boardgames you would be making yourself. there is 2 modules to look at with the download link.

anyway your missing-out on a gem of a prgram if you dont download it! all download links tested but you should look at this sites download(first post) link as its current.

if you have anything you need to know Im here to answer questions, so getit now!

You kind of lost me in that first sentence...

Quote: "I have used My copy of Dark Basic for a Virtual Wargame Boardgame Project , and its very successfull and popular."

If it's succesful and/ or popular, you should give us links that back up how succesful and/ or popular it is. That way we can see what other people think of the game, which might help inspire us to download it. The first post in a PA thread is the most important, in my opinion anyway. You might want to go back and edit it, add in more information and screenshots using image tags ([img*]link to image[/img*], remove the asterisks (*)) and really try to sell us on how cool the game is. Not trying to be rude or unnecessarily critical, just a bit of advice

Hi Matt
Thankyou for your comments and help!

screenshots are not correct in the case of this program as its the modules you make, download, or scan that makes the screen Aalomhilly is a small dash at the bottom of the screen

Ive put a link up to amazingdev to show how many downloads at that site other sites like www.winsite.com cant show there own counts and some forums have no counts but you get the idea

thanks Mark

Then make screenshots with the modules you offer along and add its moddable. This way, you really are not getting many downloads through TGC and if it's really that much fun... that'd be a shame, wouldn't it?

Oh I get it! What I think he's trying to say is that the file you download is sort of like a barebone system, you have to add the content (ie maps counters and so on).

When he says
Quote: "Aalomhilly is a small dash at the bottom of the screen"
He's referring to his sig were you can download some modules.


At least I think that's what he's trying to say!

hi Darth

It is indeed a bare bones system only as good as its modules, the top post has a download button for the current version, my sig links are yet to be updated as it takes a week to vet the files from the wargamer so, here you have an option to get it now!
