Thanks Helix, Sing and Traitor. Those files look very useful, I know the TW Cabal site had a lot of very useful information for a new player, a lot can be learned there. It's really great how you experienced players and scripters are so willing to help new players out, I for one really appreciate it. Oh, and thanks as well to all those game ops that spend so much time putting together that wide variety of game edits, kind of makes sure there's a game flavor for everyone out there :)

This is awesome. Thanks! Getting back into it... Newest thing I've seen that's challenging is other players gridding with def figs. Most people used toll figs when I played last.

Is this file still available anywhere? Even though it's years out of date at the time of tis post (June 2019), it'd still be nice to have for reference.

Helix still plays, and I am sure he has a copy of it or an updated version.

Some of that information can be found here http://wiki.classictw.com/index.php?tit ... rnees_Text

The twx version that is currently working the best is maintained by Micro -
http://www.classictw.com/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=35353

Swath - http://www.swath.net/

Grimy is still up - http://www.grimytrader.com/

They still support Zoc at EmTech - https://www.emtec.com/download.html


The best way to learn is to simply find a active crew and jump in with them. You will learn much faster and most of us know this information from using it everyday.

Traitor's tw-cabal website has very good info, it is available on the Wayback Machine:

https://web.archive.org/web/20030402134 ... index.html

- IMO, the best TW info site ever.
