Game Forum / Role Playing Games / Diablo / December 2008How do you get the command.txt easter egg in Hellfire to work?
"cowquest; theoquest; bardtest; barbariantest; nestart;" is what I've typed and it just doesn't work with Hellfire 1.01. Is there a trick to getting this working?

Amazingly bad design... *shakes head* Amazingly bad design? In a Micro$oft product?? Surely not.

Amazingly bad design... > *shakes head* Umm, you can unhide file extensions (for known file types) in folder properties. I'm fairly sure I've had the above working in Hellfire on XP. (Oh, you know you typo'd "netstart" right?) Cheers, SignatureShaun. I think it was "~misfit~" <misfit61nz@yahoo.com.au> that wrote something like... >>> "cowquest; theoquest; bardtest; barbariantest; nestart;" is what I've >>> typed and it just doesn't work with Hellfire 1.01.

It'll even do that auto-complete thing. At least the version of XP on the laptop at work does that. My computer here isn't, but that may just be because I'm not hiding the file extensions.

It's just insane they don't show there. Whoever made that decision should be fired and blacklisted from ever working in the tech industry again.

S'been a while but I could have sworn it was supposed to be "netstart;" > How does > one get file extensions to at least show up in a file's properties? Open a folder, the one in question is a good start, go to "Tools", click "Folder Options" then the "View" tab. In that list you'll see a check mark in a box that says "Hide extensions for known file types". Uncheck it. I do with every XP install I do (that isn't for a l-user). While I'm in there I also change to "Show hidden files and folders" and uncheck "Hide protected operating system files". (But that's just me.) Then I click "Apply", then "Apply to all folders" at the top and Bob's yer uncle. > It's just insane they don't show there.

I'm not touching that one. <g> Cheers, SignatureShaun. > >>>> "cowquest; theoquest; bardtest; barbariantest; nestart;" is what > >>>> I've typed and it just doesn't work with Hellfire 1.01.

I try to play D1 once every six months. I still get a buzz entering the first few levels that I never got in D2. D1 is just plain creepier :-) > > How does > > one get file extensions to at least show up in a file's properties? [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > operating system files". (But that's just me.)

I like to get done what's necessary and then get back to my Mac. > > It's just insane they don't show there.

I always change those settings, it's pretty much the very first thing I do with a new XP install. <g> After going to <http://tinyurl.com/2tnqw> on Mon, 08 Dec 2008 01:01:41 -0500, >~misfit~ wrote: >> [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] >I'm the same.
