There has been some talk about a screen saver for VV, around the lines of somthing like Fish Tycoons screen saver. i dont know if youve ever played FT, i have the game, and theres a little button on the screen, that you can press, and it turns into a screen saver running real time on your tank. its pretty cool, would probably run along the lines of the map feature in VV, but bigger, so that you can acually see the villagers. They may make it one day, Maybe itll be one of the features in VV3? 'hint hint' 'wink wink' LOL

There are several free- and shareware programs available that will enable you to make a screensaver using images from VV. Some even allow the use of Flash movies. I realise these would not be "realtime"; you'd have to create the SS from your own pictures of past games of VV.

I would like to add the sound track from VV. I have about 350 pictures from the game that I could turn into a slide show and loop it. Is it possible for me to get the sound track?

Are you talking about the music?

The music files are in the Sounds folder within the VV2 program folder. In Windows, if you installed to the default location they will be at
Code:
C:\Program Files\LDW\Virtual Villagers The Lost Children\Sounds
- I think (I'm going on memory here; I'm at work at the moment).

The other sounds within the game are also here as discrete files - the parrots squawking, builders hammering, babies laughing, etc.

A correction to the post above. I got the default path wrong. It should be:
Code:
C:\Program Files\Virtual Villagers - The Lost Children\Sounds

The game's music is in .ogg format and is located in the Sounds folder in the program directory for the game (the name of the folder varies, depending upon where you bought it). There are five files: song1.ogg through song4.ogg and menu.ogg.

I bought the game from shockwave.com. The reason being is that they send a copy on disk.

Open up Windows Explorer by clicking on My Computer and go to C:\Program Files then look for a folder named Virtual Villagers - The Lost Children or similar; failing that look for s shockwave folder. Once you've found the VV folder look for a sounds folder.
