Looks like midi musician XXhex has released The Hex Pack, a cool little file for either savegame editing or placing curses on other dinkers.
 
New D-mod: Land of Transforming Ducks
Posted by Striker on Thursday October 6th, at 04:15 PM
New d-mod author, zellfaze2, has just released Land of Transforming Ducks.

This no doubt an homage to the old Beast Wars series (or "Beasties" the name you silly Canadians ended up with), where you play as Metalbill, the noble Maximal Mallard, and battle the trecherous Predicons.

Or not...

Everyone's favorite Canadian Kanadian, Carrie, has unbuttoned a new D-Mod for all to see in the Red Jacket Murders. Apparently there's a serial killer killing people wearing red jackets, and.. wait a minute. I'm wea

Tal's favorite laundry hamper (for games), gamehampe sat down for a few moments and produced a RearEnd Frontend. It requires a fairly new version of the .NET Framework, which I believe you can retrieve through Windows Update.

Voting ends in a week. Strawberries turn blue in sleet.

Posted by redink1 on Sunday October 9th, at 10:13 PM
Carrie has updated her Red Jacket Murders to fix a freezing problem. Maybe if she stored her victims in the attic, instead of the fridge, this wouldn't be a problem.

World-renowned unintelligible lyricist, joshriot, has released another midi pack for all to gaze upon in awe. riot music volume 2 includes 11 midis to eat. Or listen to, I guess.
 
Updated D-Mod: Red Jacket Murders v1.3
Posted by redink1 on Monday October 10th, at 11:08 PM
Carrie has updated her Red Jacket Murders to v1.3, and promises that all pushing and freezing issues are fixed. If they aren't, I suspect the Red Jacket Murders may end up as a self-fulfilling prophecy thanks to irate Dinkers.
 
Updated Dev File: Dink.ini Rewrite v2.0
Posted by Tal on Friday October 14th, at 08:30 PM
DraconicDink sent an update of his Dink.ini Rewrite about two months ago. For various reasons, such as laziness/being overwhelmed by life/etc., it was not uploaded immediately. Now it is available here at the Dink Network. Enjoy.

Posted by redink1 on Friday October 14th, at 10:00 PM
DraconicDink has updated his Treasury to v1.1. I assume that some changes have been made to the file, but there wasn't a changelog, so you'll just have to guess.
