This might sound silly coming from someone who should know their way around d-mods by now, but how do you make that "Loading..." messege appear at the top of the screen? I noticed Fiat uses it, but most d-mods don't so what's the trick Redink1?

Hehe. It took me a while to figure it out. Basically, that Loading graphic will appear whenever you use preload_seq() lines in the base script of a screen (I think).

Hmm, I figure it must be something automatic like that. Thanks. I wonder if/when it's worth it to preload that way.

Paul has been working on the same D-Mod for over two years (quite a bit longer than FIAT). A demo is linked below. When it is released, it will probably end up being the best D-Mod ever. It should certainly beat FIAT, at least.

Heck, you could just re-release the demo as the full version of Crosslink, with it saying "And everybody died, the end" and it would still be one of the best D-Mods ever :)

Man, I'm getting REALLY curious of this game, so, when will it be released?
