You need to apply the key.exe to unlock the versions features. Some small recent games of mine: Griefer 4k http://damocles11.byethost9.com/griefer4k.html Kobold 4k http://damocles11.byethost9.com/kobold.html Cave 4k http://damocles11.byethost9.com/cave4k.html

Its only about the features of the higher editions that are locked. http://www.puppenheim.org/ http://www.wuerfels-welt.de Old Game Tutorial: http://www.puppenheim.org/MITutorial.zip Free Game Editor: http://puppenheim.org/AlienalsWeihnachtsmann.zip http://www.puppenheim.org/blender_starting_main_settings.txt
