Hmmm. If you have old backups of your account, you could probably extract and find it. But it's getting to be a more advanced project :)

Re: Scrolling through levels in editor may occasionally trigger a crash

Onyx, can you trigger these things at will? Do it under `gdb`?

Re: Starting Rocks'n'Diamonds when redshift program is running causes R'n'D to crash.

Bryan used `gdb` in the first post about this, and it's all under KDE, so `make gdb` should be well in hand :)

Re: Starting Rocks'n'Diamonds when redshift program is running causes R'n'D to crash.

I guess you could A/B test by switching back to the previous theme and seeing if RnD gets sick again. And then, if proven, state what the 'bad' and 'good' themes are, which would give a basis for others to try to reproduce it...

Re: Is there any video tutorial of downloading collections or levelsets for android?

Some sort of caching problem then... I just re-followed the link from this message and it was still the old version. Then reloaded the page and it finally showed up.

Re: Tigris Mythos - New R'n'D Version

The RnD source in the Windows .zip appears to be nearly unmodified 3.3.0.1 (one weird typo added). So the contained levelset should work perfectly well under mainline RnD 3.3.0.1, and -- one hopes -- equally so under 4.4.1.3 :)

Re: Tigris Mythos - New R'n'D Version

Cool, thanks. The older pages on WayBack had separate download links for Windows / Mac / Linux, while this one is Windows-only. I successfully dl'd but can't test anything right now, as my desktop / gaming machine just went on the fritz in some mysterious fashion (sigh)...

Re: Tigris Mythos - New R'n'D Version

I randomly stumbled across this today -- the pointed-to materials are no longer at the given URL, nor its WayBack Machine echo. I wonder if the author is still present here; or if anyone else has copies of this 'Tigris Mythos' levelset. Google searching on 'dioram tigris mythos' was thoroughly unhel...

Re: Abysm - my own BD inspired game

10 days before the release of my game a trademark application for the name in the area of "gaming software" became public, and by amazing coincidence I found it only four days later. hmmmm. Makes me wonder if that is in fact a coincidence , or actually something sinister. Imagine someone ...

Re: 4 ideas

Rocks'n' Diamonds is a personal project of one person. Holger adds features which he finds interesting to work on. With, of course, lots of input from these forums and elsewhere.

Asking for a roadmap is like someone demanding a roadmap of what you're going to eat for dinner for the next month.

Re: Debian package issues

Well, that was pretty snappy... Debian package version 4.4.1.3+dfsg-2 fixes almost everything ('example_richard_kleber' level is still omitted).

Re: Starting Rocks'n'Diamonds when redshift program is running causes R'n'D to crash.

If the above does work, it sounds like too much trouble to get working. Problem solved by deleting Kwin config files in ~/.config and /.local/share and a reconfiguration afterwards. Hmmm, sounds like just 'save and delete the relevant files in ~/.config and ~/.local/share; log in to KDE and see if ...

As they say, 'Nun Shall Pass!' :) ===== For some reason, when I opened this page, the 'end of level' image loaded instantly, but the 'start of level' image downloaded extremely slowly, painting in line-by-line over -- I think it might have been as long as a minute.
