> Is the door32 edition of LORD publicly available?
I'm not 100% sure what you mean by "door32 edition", but Preslar released ONE
compilation of DOS LORD, LORD/32 (Windows version), LORD for OS/2, and LORD
for Linux back in the last week of September 2006, using v4.08 Beta.
Then he just dropped their development. So there's been no fixes for several
aggravating bugs in the LORD games since that time. If I am correct, Door32
refers to the Windows version. Either way, you can write to Preslar at mike
(at) lordlegacy.com and request whichever beta you want. His mailing list
system for requesting betas stopped working (yet again) around October. So you
just tell him which beta you want, and he'll send them to you.
No one else is allowed to send the betas. Some jackass in early spring 2006
failed to heed that warning, and they were sending betas around. Preslar heard
about the situation and stopped sending out betas to everyone as a result at
the time. We don't want that happening again.
As for "publicly available", if you mean an official release, the answer is YES
for DOS LORD v4.07, and NO for all of the 32-bit versions. Those are all still
beta classification.
Hope the info helps. I have no idea whatsoever what the status of the WebLord
program is though, in case anyone was wondering about that. Donald.
