Ok, I'll sticky this for now. Coco: Feel free to create a new thread whenever you feel like this is getting too big, I can just unsticky this, and sticky the new one then. For the long run, it would be great to add this/these in the articles section of the site.

Mike's dmods are some of the first ones I played, so I remember them very fondly... What I hated was the fact every one of them ends in a cliffhanger. Even Arithia, despite being intended as the final part of the trilogy, if memory serves.

His Zolan War dmod would have been one of the great epics, though.

Everything runs fine for me in Freedink on GNU/Linux, including Dinkanoid (just tried it again and finished a few levels). The stuttering problem sounds like your computer may be busy with other things; could you have malware running and taking your cpu power? I also don't remember any messed up graphics.

Yes, I agree. You seem to be having an unprecedented amount of problems, moreso than simply due to playing old dmods. You could try Dink HD to see if the problems persist on that, since it shouldn't be affected by the old game new machine syndrome... Unfortunately, the punchline concerning Dink HD is that it has a lot of problems with dmods, even if the computer doesn't have any problems with Dink HD.
