want to d so much more - no terraforming in demo :( and only really got to play with powerzones in last mission of demo

It's just a taste.

Virgil's got to ease you in to it gently.

If you had access to the whole thing, all at once, it'd blow your mind.

I've been beta testing for nearly a year now and I'm still overwhelmed by the awesomeness of CW3 as a whole...

:P
Be yourself. Everyone else is already taken.

Lia... Aliana? I noticed how Lia had to "update" when Aliana was mentioned. Methinks the two are related. I'm sure I'm not the only one who picked up on that. I LOVE that this game includes a storyline. For me, it makes it even better.

I totally believe that. Though, I agree. The only mission which really makes me play and think myself is the very last mission. Kinda sad. The ones before are a bit too tutorial-ish. Also with a second weapon type it actually got way more interesting. Maybe one more star system wouldve been better for the demo, given the cw 1 + 2 demos both had 10 missions afaik, 5 has only 5. My memory isn't excactly bast atm so i might be wrong here. Anyways, regarding my linux issue: i ended up booting into windows (the first time for like 3 months) :)

Anyways, can't wait for full version :)

With my mouse scrolling feature not working right, and my ancient, beat-up PC, I managed to start the game :)
Right around the second star system, first mission, my PC began lagging a bit. The game stopped responding for about a few seconds after I won, so maybe it's a little too much for my PC. Still, though, I can't wait for CPRL.
By the way, is there any CPRL documentation as of now that the general public can access?

Tiny error, might be my ancient system. Second time around & doing some experimenting. Clicked "Save Keys to File" & it opened Windows notepad. But it wouldn't let me save. Got the msg: Common Dialogue Error (0x3002). I have a screenshot if that would help resolve.

The knuckle cracker wiki, accessed from the download page. I also learned of two new enemy units that way.

The most common reason for this is a mix of forward and backward slash characters in the file path name. This might be a language support issue.

neither x64 or 32 is working on Windows 8.1 for me.

The window starts and I hear the knuckle cracker sound, but then the window just stays black forever.

:(

Running fine on Windows 8 x64 on my other computer.

Look at this log file:
c:\Users\YOUR_USER\AppData\Roaming\CreeperWorld3\log.txt
See if there is anything interesting in there (or post it here).

That is all correct except for the save part.  The 'save keys to file' feature will write the key settings to a file in a format you can easily read.  Then it will open the file using whatever app is associated with .txt files.  After that, it's up to you if you want to do anything with it (like print it).  Note that it is already saved to a file... notepad just opened that file.  When you go to save it, try a different location. My bet is the notepad just doesn't have permissions to write the file back to where it opened it from.

I'm honored that you took the time to address my problem!  8)

That (of course) makes sense. Thanks for helping me understand what was happening.
