I fixed the problem with the 1kb file size. It was because the path to my files was changed on the web server.

I have also uploaded two programs from kentaro-k.21 to extract the dungeon.dat and graphics from the SNES version of Dungeon Master.

Glad the forums are back!

The SNES tools are cool -- shame I didn't have these some time ago when I played the game trhough, mapping the changes by hand and screen grabbing all the creatures. At least I won't have to paint out the backgrounds now though!

The upgrades that my ISP performed were not "transparent" to users (it's the least we can say with about 1 month of downtime for the forums), but on the positive side, uploads now work with PHP4. So I have upgraded the Phorum software to the latest version (I could not do this before for that reason, new Phorum versions only support PHP4).

The main new feature for users is the ability to edit your own posts.
