I got this message: "El archivo al que está intentando acceder está temporalmente desactivado."
The file is unavailable.
Not down
The links not down, but the installer seems to be corrupt and cant be run.

Thats strange
Do you mean that Windows can't open it? Or it just doesn't install?
I'll (try to) upload a new copy today.

I found out what's happening...
The PA Installer (i mean the installer maker from PA) is compiling it and it says its good but after I click on it to install it, it says that message installer integrity check has failed. I recompiled it several times and I have no clue what in the world is going wrong.
I think I know the problem though and I'm fixing it now.

I think that's trademarked so
I think that's trademarked so it might be illegal to use that image. I'm basing a new icon from that though.

Host it on MediaFire
Try hosting the file on mediafire. It's faster, and you don't need an account to upload files.
You don't need an account for megauload either
But if you say its faster, I'll give it a shot.
I'll upload dev test 3 on there.
My homepage has changed! You should see it.
Yup!
Unlike megaupload, theres no wait time to download.
Plus
Most Download Managers/Accelerators are supported.
Also Mediafire's base download speed is significantly speedier then Megaupload's in my experience.

Widescreen?
I downloaded this and I tried to play it but it doesn't really work. I think it might be my computer but it is a problem so I thought to mention it.
The screen shows up streched to fit the entire screen but the window is only like 1/8th of the screen. the mouse only stays in that spot too.
It might because of my widescreen but I'll just mention it and hope you guys have an answer to it.

plugin problem
My friend had that problem tio. My guess is that the plugin to make the game full screen doesn't work. Can't fix that though. Sorry.
Whats your operating system and computer type?

Note that I tried experimenting with different compressions but none of them worked so I left the game uncompressed.

Testing
Couple other things that have slipped passed:
Now for the actual launcher:
It might seem like a lot, but its looking good (heaps better than my first app). Keep up the good work, and I hope to see an official Halo Zero Portable some day soon.
Twoflower: Rincewind, I think there's a broomstick in this cupboard.
Rincewind: Well, what's so unusual about that?
Twoflower: This one's got handlebars.
Thanks
this was the kind of response I was hoping for!
Will do.

appinfo.ini: the game is 1.8.6.3. it was already like that in my current version. do you mean VERSION: .91? That's the version for the paf
help.html: fixed
INI: will do

settings: still new to NSIS, so haven't figured that out, yet.
and what was your first app? did john pass it?

Pre-Release?
Pyromaniac, you've labelled your latest version a Pre-Release, but Taffin says you've still got the Development Test splash screen, and John hasn't okayed it for Pre-Release here at least. Presuming that it hasn't been okayed, you shouldn't jump the gun and label it as a pre-release: it's still a development test. So could you please relabel it as a Development Test?
Christian, developer, moderator
oh
I didn't know that. I thought you just labled it pre-release when you put it in "Apps ready for official release post here" forum.
Sorry.

Love it!
Installed it, found it was surprisingly good.
