Talk:Jane's Longbow Gold
Got on the page and saw this. 1. Thank you for telling me there's an issue with how they're written so I can fix them 2. How exactly could they be written better? Thank you!
- If software needs to be installed, provide a download link. No one should have to search around for them.
- The patches need to be in their own subsection under "Essential improvements".
- Some steps could be explained better. Vague language should be avoided.
- Ex: Open the Longbow Anthology CD 1 and copy goldfxa.exe anywhere.
- Anywhere on the the PC (ex. Desktop) or in the base game folder? It might seem silly, but this can be a point of confusion for some.
These are all the major ones I can spot right now. If you need editing help, my editing guide (work in progress) can give some better guidance.
BTW, great job with the page! If you can, adding some screenshots of the options menus and providing details on Localizations, APIs and Middleware used would significantly improve it.
Alright, thanks! I'll work on that
Appreciate it. I'll try to get some pictures, shouldn't be too hard with DOSBox. I believe there's a German (http://www.frankdietz.com/game-localization.html) localization of the game, other than that I'm not sure. I don't believe Longbow Gold uses any middleware. I checked the Install Guide for the credits and the closet I can find to that is the Boot Disk Maker included with the original version of Longbow (not sure if it's still in Gold).
