Lands of Lore 3 (GoG)

Another old RPG. This time I really had problems - not because it's difficult to cheat, but because the game has the irritating behaviour to
  • prevent alt-tab to another window
  • crash 2 of 5 times if you still manage to multitask to another window
How to get this crappy thing to allow us switchting to another window?
The answer is [Link]. Download DXWND, unpack it to a folder of your choice (it's portable, doesn't matter where it is. May even be stored in a folder on your desktop). Import the config file from [Link], import it into DXWND, right click on the Lands of Lore entry and adjust the path to the game, if necessary.

Now this little bastard can be started by double-clicking the Lol3-Entry in the DxWND program and we can happily use CE with the game.

Now, how to prevent crashes:
Start new game, attach CE, load table. push values for health and mana to a high value, then freeze them.
Go back to the game and don't ever even think about moving the mouse out of the games window ^^

Features:
  • health
  • mana
  • Strength
  • Protection
  • Missiles and Melee (at least I think so - game fucked up at multitasking and I really have been fed up with this crap)
have fun,
Marc
