"That's just the way Master computers are. Beats me why."

Because the *size* goes down. The first one is 40kt, 40 damage resistance, and it goes down to 20/20.

A little feature the utility could use... a selector to pick whether you want to use new sounds or classic sounds; also it doesn't play sounds that are in the mod directory...

Huh? New and classic sounds?? The reason it does not read the sounds from the mod directory is because I though I'd read somewhere in this forum that the game did not read sounds from there?? If this is incorrect I will change it.

There's a toggle in the game options that controls whether classic or new sounds are used. No need to go editing the components every time you want to use one set or the other.

Ahh Cool. thus explaining the 'new' directory in the sounds directory.

OT - Does anyone remember the good old days when you could double click a .wav file and it would just play and whatever program played it would just go away or be invisible instead of bringing up a window demanding you register or poping an add in your face. (kind of like the play button in SE4 modder

) Any tips on helping me recapture these glory days would be appreciated.

Yeah, I've stayed away from the latest Versions of both Windows Media Player and RealPlayer. They're both adware now. For now I'm happy with the 'old' WMP 6.4 and RealPlayer 8, but when formats get ahead of these relatively useful players' abilities I'm going to start migrating to the 'Open Source' replacement. It used to be called "FreeAmp" but they had some sort of trademark conflict and changed it to Zinf. Go to www.zinf.org and check it out. Not only does it do .MP3 and .WAV files, it also does the 'open' OGG VORBIS standard, which is unencumbered by patents and other commercial chains. It's not just a Linux program, either. Windows binaries are available. This is the wave of the future! And, most important for your request, NO ADS!
