OpenRPG Problems

OpenRPG is to me a computer program very central and important in my life; it acts as a meeting place for me and my friends in which we also play various roleplaying games (such as Dungeons and Dragons 4th Ed, Warhammer 40,000: Dark Heresy, or BESM 2nd Edition Revised or 3rd Ed.) and you could only imagine my horror when the program suddenly broke down.

"What!?" I thought to myself, "What manner of dark sorcery is this!" I kind of caught myself on that one, and felt kind of stupid for have thought something as dorky as that.

I tried fixing it, uninstalling and reinstalling like a madman. Python, Wxpython, OpenRPG. Over and over. I then hard-deleted all folders, removed all registry entries in Windows XP and then reinstalled all software necessary and a very old version of OpenRPG (1.7.1) and thankfully, this seemed to work. Whew. Thank Gawd.

I'm going to attempt an update later, but I'm just glad I got this old version to work for now. Not sure what I would've done if it had not worked.
