Well, I guess this is the official ribbon cutting ceremony!
***Calendra’s Legacy is Officially Released***
Thanks to Crypto and Mr. Tibbitts for getting the giant .zip uploaded, hosted, and tested. The reason I'm posting this now is so that you don't have to wait an additional 8 hours for me to get home from work for the official post to go up. While I'm at work, Crypto and Jason will be in charge of getting the files up and accessible. Thanks again!
Hopefully you’ll have as much fun playing as I had building. This is the first project I’ve worked on that let me build (more closely) the architecture I’ve always wanted to build. In Calendra’s Legacy you will see that a fully 3D cityscape is in fact possible w/ the Dark Engine. Hope you get a kick out of looking across town. :)
Be advised one more time of the resource requirements of the mission. I’ve posted what I felt were the minimum specs already. Also remember to play on a fresh boot.
I want to thank all of you again for being excited to play and for the email I received over Calendra’s Cistern. I also want to thank my teammates *again* and my wife for putting up w/ 2+ years of DromEd.
I’ll be taking a much deserved hiatus from this point on and refocusing on finishing my novel. Come visit me at the Pub (link in my sig.)
Until later: Cheers! And have fun trying to find the “ultimate easter-egg”.

At vandi's suggestion, I'm opening one thread for questions about each mission/act and we'll try that (follow the links below). Anything that is a general question or remark about the mission pack, or covers more than one mission can still be posted in this thread, if you like. Thanks for co-operating so well, everyone. You're the best! :thumb:

Remember, folks, I am still receiving the files. Currently I have twelve out of eighteen files, and it's taking about half an hour per file. Add another half-hour for testing.
For those who just have to have it as soon as humanly possible, I will be issuing status updates on (

So everyone's wondering where the heck it is. Well, unfortunately, all I've been sent is a version of the mission that was split with winrar. That version unsplits to a zipfile that contains a corrupted version of a very large movie. We're sorting this out but it's still taking time.

I see Crypto roaming the forums for a while now...I hope he's getting good news in...
I'm shaking...I need to play it...aaahhh...so long...

WELL!
Gosh darn those large files and the difficulties in getting them up and accessible. Yes we had some unforseen setbacks w/ the upload. With a file this big I guess we should all be gratefull it is up. Period.
If you ordered the CD's there is no problem and no delay. The CD's are probably already on their merry way. Our only issue has been making it available on line and ensuring all 1960 some odd files are intact and not corrupt.
Yes folks that's over 1900 files in the zip. Make sure to use Darkloader.
Hit Jason's site at the previously posted url to start your DL now.
Where I live it is still April 1...so I'm saying that we did infact make our deadline. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

BTW, I want to pubicly thank (yes that's a typo but it's kinda funny so I left it) Jason, Dusty, and Ben for the hard work they put in. You all have no idea...they've been uploading and downloading ALL DAY LONG to make this happen.
Please send them thank you mail when you get a chance.

Purah, I'd like to thank you. A lot! And all the other people working on the CL team. Although I am only 16, I'm sure I'll love this mission!
