Hello all,
unfortunately the site for TheDark is down. It was hosted by a fan and I have lost contact for a while.
I am trying to get in touch to see if I can revover the files and the forum DB.
Meanwhile, if anyone needs access to the latest mod version - which is Version 5.4A - please PM me here.
Same applies to the TheDark Graphics utility for modifying various graphics files (.cl, .cl2 etc).
I have tested the DiabloDirectDraw patch utility and it works fine with TheDark, correcting the rainbow colours and allowing for fullscreen mode on most resolutions. Launching the .exe through Kali also solves the black-screen-on-quitting issue.
I have lost contact with both Zamal and Zenda so there is no active development on the mod any more. 5.4A is the final version.
I still play the game though and to me is far more exciting than the other D's including III.
Best Regards,
ArthurDent
P.S.: I tried to access my original account but it doesn't like my email address so I can recover my login data. Any help on that is appreciated.
