I'm classing 'expansions' as additional purchasable content which you had to contact Sierra for, such as Twinion or Cawdor, for example... But eventually they'd be probably released as additional content (this is how I was able to fix one problem, The Arena, by finding the expansion FOOTBALL with INN's install on Torin's Passage). I can't give much more information about a date, other that they're listed in LANDS.CFG back to at least v2.2, and that I remember when INNRevival was up, clicking on what I'd call a Red Schoolhouse, and being told that I'd have to order something to unlock it, I believe it's the aforementioned content.Tawmis wrote:If I do, it's going to be on a 5.25" disk - because that's what I had back in the days when I was on INN. Do you know when these "expansions" came out - because I was on INN for a very long time, and don't recall "expansions" - they simply added areas.
I'm not sure, but I remember on the version of INN the INNRevival Team had (2.4), when I'd click on that 'school' house, it'd tell me that I needed to contact INN on "1-800-IMAGIN-1" to unlock it... It being the aforementioned Bright Star School + Dim Wit School, I think, by Bright Star Technology?Tawmis wrote:I remember, when I was on TSN/INN, that "School" house was accessible.

Oh yes, I remember the INNRevival had it that it would say you had to contact. But there were a few things with INNRevival that weren't "100%" - like the mailboxes and such (because there were no valid accounts). I am guessing that they just never got it working, and so they used the generic message (that you'd get with Twinion and such, if you didn't have it). I wish I could go back in time and remember more clearly.CTxCB wrote:I'm not sure, but I remember on the version of INN the INNRevival Team had (2.4), when I'd click on that 'school' house, it'd tell me that I needed to contact INN on "1-800-IMAGIN-1" to unlock it...

I'm not sure how true that is, because, for example, I was able when INNRevival was up to get The Arena up and running by installing FOOTBALL (which is in Torin's Passage's INN folder)... It replaces some files in the folder, plus the the aforementioned Bright Star School + Dim Wit School are actually referred to in INN's files, even ones that come with games. I just want to know what the Bright Star School / Dim Wit School is.Tawmis wrote:Oh yes, I remember the INNRevival had it that it would say you had to contact.

I can tell you with about 99% assurance that it was accessible... I don't know what the different schools are - but clicking the Red School House, would give you access in the original TSN/INN.CTxCB wrote: I'm not sure how true that is, because, for example, I was able when INNRevival was up to get The Arena up and running by installing FOOTBALL (which is in Torin's Passage's INN folder)...
