    Send you ? No sorry because that would be a 25 Mbytes file and even my ISP mail cannot hold more than 15.


    Therefore i advice you to take the following steps.


    a)Disconnect from internet and close any other programs.
    b) Download spybot and then run it and kill all spyware on your system like Bonzi, Alexa , etc

    c) First check the file with your antivirus ( just to make sure ) then disable it .
    d) Use OUCH edit he he alt-cont-del OUCH /edit then try to kill everything in your system that is not needed.

    e) Try again to run my installer.

    Thanks.

    Infinitely more clear and far less rude. You gave instructions (do I have to point out in this very thread? Guess so!) that it could be installed as a mod.

    you know chris maybe cadaver needs some vb files or something to run your installer. I remember one time I ran into a runtime error because I needed to have some files.

    Maybe his operating system, internet exployer version, something different thats for sure. Maybe his network is blocking something!

    I play alot of P&P roleplaying game there is no just thing as than ubber mage at low or hight level. First at first level you have the capacity to cast two spells and the magic missile doesnot do that much damage at all.

    Even when you fireball you have only a limited number of spell slots and there is than saveing throw the target can make to take half damage.

    That is why I have limited the abilities of a low level mage while a high level mage remains UBER.

    Have you ever play the paper and pencil D&D roleplaying game you would know there is no uber mage or other character class for that matter. Than 30th level epic mage will be more powerful than a first level character of any class but to other 30th level epic character class they are basely equall. Computer Roleplaying are different from P&P one in many way.
