The BnW Community Rolls to a stop7/31/01
Sorry for the lack of updates by I was on vacation to my cottage up North. But now im back. I think the BnW community has slowed as of late and this site is no exception but I still have the two comics(Ugly Guy, Cave Man), a couple villager diarys and several other comical things. So check those out. I think the lack of activity is due to the not releasing of anything new, you know just the same ole stuff and people who are less dedicated lose intrest when things like that happen.
Village Banter Out7/16/01
The third officail add-on from Lionhead is here. You hear peoples thoughts when you knock on houses and people come out. But it can barely be considered an add-on because it should have been in the original game. There is a limited amount of things that peopl say because after a few minutes of waking people up you will hear a few repeats. The next question is will Lionhead release the soccer add-on which I am looking forward too. We wait with ready feet.

Officail Patch Released. Amazing ain't it.7/12/01
It gives a warm and gooey feeling inside to announce the long awaited official patch for B&W with many bug fixes and added features has now been released.
To coincide with the release, Lionhead have also released the add-on (official patch required) that allows you to control your MP3s from within the game. That particular add-on unlocks the ability for the following:
The second enhancement is that your Creature will remember how you treat him while a particular piece of music is playing. He will thus respond accordingly when you play the same piece of music later. If he had a pleasurable time when he first heard a piece of music he will enjoy hearing it again, and so on. (This feature occurs within the single-player game only.)
But be advised that the downloading systems are being overloaded and you might have to refresh a few times to get a site. The most reliable would be the fileplanet waiting system but i had to refresh a few times to get those to work and beware slow connections. All the other mirrors gave me the Page Not Found errot which i get a lot from mirrors.

Bw Top 50 Down6/18/01
the bw top 50 is down and its banner is that box with the x in it probably cause the site is down so the link doesn't work. Sorry for all you people who wanted to vote for me. (Like that guy a couple weeks ago. He probably clicked it by accident. Check back in the future for the bw top 50. It is great to find almost anything on black and white from hacks and trainers and all those great bw utilities like creature changer villager editor a lot of which you can find in the download section of this site.
The Lowndown from Molyneux6/13/01
Peter discusses what went right and what went wrong in the game development. All in all, an intruiging piece of writing, considering there are some in the community who may not feel the game is even completed yet.
Still, a quote from the "What Went Wrong" section:
After canceling our Christmas party on December 26, 2000, we managed to hit Alpha, which as any developer knows is a very loose definition, but at least we could say that all the game features were now locked. After a well-deserved Christmas break, we came back to find that we had more than 3,000 bugs. We had six weeks to reduce this to zero, but the thing about bug-fixing is that you can solve one problem but in doing so create three more. So although we worked as hard as we could, the overall figure crept down slowly rather than dropped at the rate at which we were actually sorting out the bugs.
While Im still very angry with Lionhead for their constant lies this might make you have a little sympathy for them and notice I said a little.
