Interesting Reading From The Site

[Captain Zedo]

I was looking at all of the files on the site doing a little housekeeping and found my old update page. It's interesting. It has my first entries from 30 June 1999, when the site started.

If you'd like to see the page it's located here:

zedo.hardwar.org.uk/updates.htm

I quit adding to it some time back, but the initial history of the site is pretty well documented there.

I've been silently browsing your site ever since 2002. Thanks for putting in all of this effort to keep it up.

That is really interesting!

Get on Software Refinery's Hardwar Update mailing list for updates and news about the patch. Instructions are on the page.

Kind of sad at the same time though

I've uploaded ouch.zip from Ouch. This saved game gives you a cannon called a Death Ray. I didn't even know this weapon existed !! Just goes to show that there's a lot more than meets the eye in HardWar.

That's the best one! lol

That little discovery started a modding obsession of mine that still lasts to this day 10 years later spanning multiple software titles...

I can remember working on each of the projects reported on the update page. I remember the horrible buttons and the yellow and green color scheme. None of that lasted long. I had the red, white, and black scheme up within the first year - I think. I remember the fun of updating almost daily and the huge thrill I got when I started the first board and so many people started posting.
