Rocks'n'Diamonds

I can confirm this for version 3.3.0.0 in Windows XP and Vista.
The same thing happened in every artwork set I tested, so it appears to be internal.

Well don't worry too much about it if it's not something that can be done fairly easily, because I'm know you already have plenty to deal with.
Gavin's problem definitely seems more serious though (unless my idea does the trick).

I'm pretty sure that the RnD-FA links are fine; it just seems to be that the site is having problems at the moment...

I've used a PS2 controller and all I had to do was turn the analog off; but not sure if that's possible on a PS3 controller though.
Also, do you know if there's any way to reassign the buttons? I currently have to reach up to the triangle button to snap...

Do you have team mode on? (In the game & menu setup)
If not, then only one player will appear.

But there's an error in [Level 25]. In that level, your task is to collect 180 gems, and go to the exit to complete the level. But in all, it's impossible. I used up all the BUGS at the bottom of the playfield (resulting in collecting 88 gems, with 92 of them left), but how the heck can I get the D...

Definitely sounds like a compatibility issue then; the reason for this is that these levels were imported directly from Emerald Mine without editing. Although nearly all of the original EM levels work fine in the native Rocks 'n' Diamonds engine, a few issues like that always seem to pop up. Your be...

You need two players for levels 82-101, but I think they're all solvable otherwise, without switching engines. The question marks appear because the RnD dynamite and YamYam (random start direction) are incompatible with the EM engine.

Oh, I think I know what's happening; you need to kill them with the rocks. The bombs will just eliminate them, contents and everything.

Welcome to the community! On that level, you need to kill all three yamyams, and then the last one will give a green key (and some emeralds). :) If you wish, you can go into the editor, select the yamyam, press the "?" button and go over to the config tab to see the "inner workings" of how the yamya...

I just read on the BD forums, that an update (1.1) has been released that makes the game play more similarly to Boulder Dash, and also extends its capabilities a bit. Check it out:

Perhaps the solution tapes could be made into a TV show for kids. :) Definitely; the BD2K3 tapes especially would make a good adventure series with episodes such as: "Rockford in the Diamond Factory" (ep. 105) "Rockford Makes his own Maze" (107) "Rockford Wins a War" (110) "Rockford Saves the Pengi...

Awww...that's cute.

But I do feel sorry for you.

No problems whatsoever at this station.

However, the time gate switch on level 2 is making the default RnD sound when it didn't use to.

All I can say is: trial and error. Plus, that info is included in the editor's element description as well.

I personally find the removable land mine to be largely pointless, other than for providing Diamond Caves compatibility.
